to persons when using your appliance, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
n Read all instructions before using the appliance.
n Do not wash or dry articles that have been
previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or
spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents,
cooking oils, other flammable or explosive
substances as they give off vapors that could

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
A) Grounding instructions for a grounded,
cord-connected appliance
In the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by
providing a path of least resistance for electric
current. This appliance is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
To reduce the risk of fire, this appliance must be
exhausted outdoors or the equivalent. Do not
exhaust into a chimney, wall, ceiling or concealed
space in a building.
WARNING!
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service
representative or personnel if you are in doubt as
to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance.
If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
B) Grounding instructions for a permanently
connected appliance:
This appliance must be connected to a grounded
metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipmentgrounding terminal or lead on the appliance.
NOTE: This manual does not cover every possible
condition and situation that may occur. Use
common sense and caution when
installing, operating, and maintaining any
appliance.
ENGLISH
n Do not heat dry items that have been dry-
cleaned.

INST ALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Read these instructions carefully before you install the machine. The installation should be carried out by a
qualified person who is familiar with all local codes and ordinances for electrical connections. Incorrect
installation may cause damage and/or injury. If the integrity of the machine is in doubt, do not use it. Call
your dealer for qualified assistance.
The dryer can be installed in any room with a hard floor. Do not install it on carpeting with heavy pile.
There must be a ventilation outlet to the exterior for the exhaust duct.
WARNING!
This appliance should never be exhausted into a chimney, wall, ceiling, or concealed space of a
building. Only a metal ventilation grill should be used.
To install the tumble dryer, follow the steps below:
1. Remove the outer wrapping and the polystyrene base.
2. Move the machine into place.
3. Adjust the levelling legs by lifting the front of the dryer slightly and adjusting the feet to the correct height.
Be careful not to screw the feet down too far and do not use a screwdriver.
NOTE: A badly leveled machine may result in damage to the bearings and premature wear, so we
recommend that you use a spirit level.
4. Connect the exhaust duct to the ventilation outlet (see below).
CONNECTING THE EXHAUST DUCT
You will need a UL-CSA-approved, 4-inch ridged metal exhaust duct.
ENGLISH
NOTE: Excessive duct and too many bends can impede drying performance. We recommend that you cut
off any excess exhaust duct and run the duct with as few bends as possible. Make any necessary
bends as gentle as possible.
To connect the exhaust duct, follow the steps below:
1. Connect the exhaust duct to the coupling nut supplied with the dryer. (See illustration below.)
2. Turn the coupling (together with the duct) counterclockwise in the air discharge outlet on the back of the
dryer.
3. Connect the other end of the exhaust duct to a ventilation exhaust fitting or to a discharge duct in the wall
and secure with a clamp.
4. It is best if the duct does not sag.
5. After you push the dryer into place, make sure there aren’t any kinks in the duct.
NOTE: Maximum duct length of 15 feet, using two 90° elbows is allowed. Subtract 4 feet of duct for each
additional elbow.
