3 Installation
Appropriate installation
location
• Install your machine in environments
which have no risk of freezing and in a
stable and level position.
• Do not place your machine on a long
pile rug or on similar surfaces.
• Operate your machine in a well
ventilated, dust-free environment.
• Do not block the air ducts in front of
and under the machine with materials
such as long pile rugs or kitchen unit
plinths.
B Make sure that your machine is not
placed on the power cable.
B Keep at least 3 cm from the edges of
other furniture.
Under Counter Installation
• Leave at least 3 cm of space between
the side and rear walls of the machine
and the walls of the counter/cupboard
when installing your machine under a
counter or in a cupboard. Never use
the tumble dryer without top plate.
C Never unscrew the adjustable feet
from their housings.
2 plastic pieces supplied together with
the Operating Instructions prevent
your machine from slipping on wet and
slippery surfaces. To install these plastic
parts:
1. Tilt your machine to backwards.
2. Fit the plastic parts to the front
adjustable feet. Press on the plastic
parts to fix them in their places.
3. Check the balance of your machine
again and readjust the adjustable feet if
necessary.
Ventilation hose and
connection (for products
equipped with an outlet vent)
Ventilation hose assures exhausting of the
air from inside the machine.
Vented dryer has 1 air outlet.
Stainless sheet metal or aluminum pipes
can be used instead of the hose. The
diameter of the pipe to be used should
be minimum 10 cm.
Maximum hose and pipe lengths are
given in the table below.
Adjusting the feet
In order to ensure that your machine
operates more silently and vibration-free,
it must stand level and balanced on its
feet. Front feet of your machine can
be adjusted. Balance the machine by
adjusting the feet.
1. Loosen the feet by hand.
2. Adjust them until the machine stands
level and firmly.
C Do not use any tools to loosen the
adjustable feet. Otherwise, they can be
damaged.
Hose Pipe
Maximum length 4 m 5 m
1 elbow 45° -1.0 m -0.3 m
1 elbow 90° -1.8 m -0.6 m
1 elbow 90° short -2.7 m
1 wall passage -2.0 m -2.0 m
C Each elbow and other passages
should be subtracted from the above
maximum length.
To connect a ventilation hose;
1. Connect the air outlet hose to the
hose spacer piece by turning it anticlockwise.
2. Make the hose passages as shown
below.
8 - EN
C Exhaust of humid air from the dryer
into the room is inconvenient. It may
damage the walls and furniture in the
room.
C The ventilation hose can be routed
outdoors via a window or it can be
connected to an air outlet in the wall
(see diagram below).
C Air outlet hose must be extended
directly to the outdoors. There must
be a small number of elbows as not to
hinder air ventilation.
C To prevent water accumulation in the
hose, make sure that it is not folded on
the floor.
You can directly send the accumulated
water out through the water drain hose
supplied with the machine instead of
periodically draining the water collected in
the water tank.
Connecting the water drain hose;
1. Remove the hose on the machine by
pulling it out from its end. Do not use
any tools to take out the hose. Attach
the drain hose adaptor to the end of
this hose.
2. Connect the special drain hose
supplied with the machine to the hose
adaptor fitting.
3. The other end of the drain hose
can be directly connected to the
wastewater drain or to the washbasin.
The fitting must always be secured in
all types of connections. Your house
may be flooded if the hose gets out of
its housing during water discharge.
B The air ventilation hose should not be
connected to the chimney of a stove or
a fireplace.
B Do not operate your machine at the
same time with heaters such as a coal
or gas stove. Airflow may cause the
chimney to flare up. Airflow may cause
the chimney to flame up.
Connection to a water drain
(for products equipped with a
condenser )
In products equipped with a condenser
unit the water accumulated during the
drying cycle is collected in the water tank.
You should drain the accumulated water
after each washing cycle.
C When you direct the water drain out,
“Water Tank” warning LED will light up
at the end of each programme.
Important:
• The hose should be attached to a
height of maximum 80 cm.
• You must be careful not the pinch or
bend the hose.
• 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 machine.
