Agent for installation of your product.
C Preparation of location and electrical
installation for the product is under
customer’s responsibility.
B Installation and electrical connections
must be carried out by a qualified
personnel.
A Prior to installation, visually check if
the product has any defects on it. If
so, do not have it installed. Damaged
products will cause risks for your
safety.
Appropriate installation
location
• Install the product in an environment
which has no risk of freezing and is in a
stable and level position.
• Operate your product in a well
ventilated, dust-free environment.
• Do not block the air ducts in front of
and under the product with materials
such as long pile rugs and wooden
bands.
• Do not place your product on a long
pile rug or on similar surfaces.
• Do not install the product behind a
door with a lock, sliding door or a
hinged door which can strike the
product.
• Once the product is installed, it should
stay at the same place where its
connections have been made. When
installing the product, make sure
that the rear wall of it does not touch
anywhere (tap, socket, etc.) and also
pay attention to install the product at a
place where it will stay permanently.
BDo not place the product on top of the
power cable.
• Keep at least 1.5 cm distance to walls
of other furniture.
Under counter installation
• A special part (Part no: 295 970
0100) replacing the top trim must
be provided and installed by the
Authorised Service Agent in order
to use the machine under a counter
or in a cupboard. It should never be
operated without the top trim.
• Leave at least 3 cm of space between
the side and rear walls of the product
and the walls of the counter/cupboard
when installing your product under a
counter or in a cupboard.
Mounting over a washing
machine
• A fitting device should be used
between the two machines when
installing above a washing machine.
The bracket (Part no. 296 280 0100
white/296 280 0200 grey) must be
installed by the Authorised Service
Agent.
• Place the product on a firm floor. If
it will be placed on top of a washing
machine, the approximate weight of
both machines may reach 180 kg
when they are full. Therefore, the floor
must be capable of carrying the load
on it!
Connection to water drain
(Products with a condenser);
In products equipped with condenser
unit, water accumulated during the drying
cycle accumulates in the water tank. You
should drain accumulated water after
each drying cycle.
You can directly drain accumulated water
through the water drain hose supplied
with the product instead of periodically
draining the water collected in the water
tank.
Connecting the water drain hose:
1. Pull the hose out by its end to remove
it from the product. Do not use any
tools to remove the hose. Attach the
drain hose adaptor to the end of this
hose.
2. Connect the special drain hose
supplied with the product to the hose
adaptor fitting.
3. Connect the other end of the drain
hose directly to the wastewater drain
or to the washbasin. The fitting must
always be secured in every type of
connection. Your house may flood
if the hose comes out of its housing
during water discharge.
C When you direct the water drain to
outside, “Water Tank” warning light will
turn on at the end of each programme.
8
EN
Important:
• The hose should be attached to a
height of maximum 80 cm.
• Make sure that the hose is not pinched
or bend.
• The end of the hose should not be
bent, it should not be stepped on and
it must not be folded between the
drain and the product.
Connecting the water drain
hose for models with the water
tank at the bottom;
Connection pipe to water drain is at the
bottom rear of your machine.
1. Remove the bracket and the rubber
cap.
2. Attach the drain hose and replace the
bracket to its position.
Important:
C Make sure that the discharge hose is
tight after it is connected to the drain
in order to obtain a better water flow
since the machine is not equipped with
a pump. You can cut and shorten the
hose to adjust its length if necessary.
C The end of the hose should never be
higher than the level of the water outlet
on the machine. Otherwise, the “tank
full” light of your machine will illuminate
and stop the programme.
C If the dryer is mounted on the washing
machine by means of a bracket, use of
the water drain hose is recommended.
The drain hose should be directed
downwards as shown in the figure.
Adjusting feet
In order to ensure that your product
operates more silently and vibrationfree, it must stand level and balanced on
its feet. Front feet of your product can
be adjusted. Balance the machine by
adjusting the feet.
1. Loosen the feet by hand.
2. Adjust the feet until the product stands
level and firmly on the floor.
C Do not use any tools to loosen the
adjustable feet, otherwise, they can be
damaged.
C Never remove the adjustable feet from
their housings.
2 plastic pieces supplied along with the
user manual prevent your machine from
slipping on wet and slippery surfaces. To
install the plastic parts:
1. Tilt your product to backwards.
2. Fit the plastic parts on to the front
adjustable feet. Press on the plastic
parts to snap them into their seating.
3. Check the balance of your product
again and readjust the adjustable feet if
necessary.
