Installation and Ventilation requirements

SUPPLY CORD

AIR INLET VENTS

HOT AIR OUTLET

IMPORTANT: This dryer must be installed such that the air inlets and outlets are not restricted (fig. 1).

There should be a gap of at least 12 mm (0.5 inches) between the sides and rear of the machine and the surrounding walls and cabinets.

To ensure adequate ventilation the space between the bottom of the machine and the floor must not be obstructed.

NEVER install the dryer up against curtains.

Prevent items from falling or collecting between the sides and rear of the dryer as these may obstruct the air inlet and outlets.

A venting hose is supplied with this tumble dryer.

The use of the venting hose to exhaust hot air to the external atmosphere is strongly recommended to ensure

maximum drying efficiency. Protect the external outlet from prevailing winds to ensure back-draughts do not reduce the drying performance.

If the dryer is installed under a worktop or built-in, it is essential to use the venting hose to carry the hot moist air away from the dryer otherwise re-circulation of the moist air will prevent the dryer from working efficiently.

The hose may be fitted through a wall or through an open door or window (fig. 2). The hose is 95 mm (3.75 inches) in diameter and will extend up to 1.8 metres (6 feet).

Venting hoses longer than 1.8 metres (6 feet) are not recommended as the dryer performance will be reduced.

Ensure that the venting hose is not kinked as this will prevent the dryer from working efficiently.

There are three air outlets – one at the rear and one on each side of the dryer. The venting hose must only be attached to one of these outlets. The covers must be fitted to the two unused outlets to maintain maximum drying efficiency.

Where it is not practical to fit a venting hose, condensation can be reduced by operating the dryer close to an open window or an extractor fan.
