IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING - To reduce the risk of

fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:

It is essential to read all instructions

before using the appliance.

Do not allow children to play on or in

the appliance. Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near children. Always close the door after use to prevent child hazards.

Before this appliance is removed for

service or discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment.

Do not reach into the dryer if the

drum is moving.

Do not install or store this appliance

where it will be exposed to the weather.

Do not tamper

with the controls.

Do not repair or replace any part of

the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in these operating instructions. Repairs to electrical appliances should only be performed by qualified personnel. Incorrectly repaired machines may pose a considerable risk to the user.

Do not use fabric softener sheets to

eliminate static in this dryer. Best results are achieved when a liquid softener is used in the washer. Follow the manufacturers instructions.

To prevent the risk of fire, the

following textiles must not be dried in this dryer:

items which have not been washed.

–

items, such as work-wear, exposed

–

to grease, oils, or other deposits (such as lotions or cosmetics) in your dryer. If these items have not been thoroughly cleaned there is a danger that they may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause the laundry to ignite when heated even after being removed from the dryer.

– items that have been previously

cleaned, washed, soaked or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances. They may give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

– items treated with flammable

cleaning agents or items containing acetone, alcohol, petrol, stain remover, wax or chemicals from buffing, etc.

–

items which have been splashed with hair spray, nail polish remover, etc.

When washing heavily soiled items ensure that sufficient detergent is used with a high temperature. If in doubt wash the item several times.

–

items containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.

–

items with padding or filling (e.g. pillows or jackets) which have been damaged. Loose filling could catch fire.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Allow the dryer to complete each

stage of the program selected, including the cooling down phase. This will ensure that the items being removed are not too hot to handle

Clean the lint filter before or after

each load.

Keep the area around the air intake

(toe kick) and adjacent surrounding areas free from lint, dust and dirt.

The interior of the machine should

be cleaned periodically by qualified personnel.

This dryer is intended for residential use only!

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. 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.

WARNING – Improper connection of

the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

An airflow gap of3/8" (10 mm) must be provided between the machine and the floor. This airflow gap must not be blocked by a toe-kick or thick piled carpets.

Sufficient venting of the installation site, e.g. by opening a window or door, is essential for the dryer's operation. Otherwise drying times and energy usage may increase.

Do not install the dryer next to a refrigerator. The warm air which emanates from the dryer can affect the thermostat of the refrigerator, causing it to run continuously.

Room ventilation

The room air, which is taken in when the dryer is in operation, is blown out via the exhaust grill on the bottom front. This dry air heats the air in the room. It is important, particularly if the room is small, to ensure adequate ventilation. Opening a door or window, for example, will improve supply of cooler air. Otherwise drying times and energy usage may increase.

Level the dryer

^ The dryer must be level to ensure

safe and proper operation.

The machine can be leveled by turning the legs clockwise or counterclockwise as necessary.

Installation

Installing the decor panel

The door can be fitted with a customized door panel (optional accessory) to match the adjacent cabinets.

Decor panel measures

Width .............23

Height .............23

Thickness ....

Open the door.

/16"-3/16" (1.6 - 4.8 mm)

/4" (591 mm)

/8" (593 mm)

Unscrew the 4 screws at the top of the decor frame and pull it forward.

Loose the screws at the other sides of the decor frame but do not take them out.

A decor panel up to

/16" thickness can be inserted if the frame sides are pushed forward.

^ Insert the decor panel from above.

^ Press the frame sides onto the panel

und tighten the screws.

^ Push the top of the decor frame onto

the frame from the front and fix it with the four screws.

Installation

Shortening the door panel

The door panel can be shortened to match the height of the adjacent cabinetry.

The measure X equals the space from the bottom of the washer door to the bottom of the adjacent cabinet.

Cut the bottom of the door panel with a jigsaw according to X.

Cut the side decor bars with a hacksaw.

Installation

Open the door.

^ To remove the door panel unscrew

the 10 screws (arrows) from the door sheet panel.

^ Remove the three decor bars from

the door panel by unscrewing the screws.

^ Cut the bottom of the door panel and

the two side decor bars by X.

Drill four holes into the door panel to fix the lower decor bar.

Install the decor bars and the door panel.

To install a decor panel, check if it needs to be shortened.

Installation

External water drain

When drying is in progress, condensed water is pumped into the condensed water container through the drain hose at the back of the dryer. The condensed water can be drained directly into a drain if the machine is installed near a sink or standpipe so that the condensed water container does not have to be emptied.

Drain hose length:. . . approx. 3 ft. (1 m)

Extension hose (accessory) . . 6 ft. (2 m)

Maximum Drain height: . . 4’ 11" (1.5 m)

Maximum Drain length .....13ft.(4m)

Under special installation

circumstances this dryer must be fitted with a non-return valve (accessory), see "Special Installation".

Max. drain height

with non-return valve: ....3’3"ft.(1m)

Installing the drain hose

Do not pull or kink the drain hose,

this could cause damage!

^ Unclip the drain hose from the

clamps 1 and 2, and pull it off the holder, 3.

The lower clamps, 4, can be opened to install the drain hose or to feed the power cable through.

Installing the drain hose (sink, gully)

See illustration, front view.

If you want to drain the

condensed water into a sink, secure the hose carefully, e.g. by tying the hose to the water faucet, to avoid water damage.

Use the curved guide to prevent the

drain hose from becoming kinked (see "Front view" illustration).

Special Installation

In special installation

circumstances, the non-return valve must be installed. Water

flowing back from the dryer can cause damage.

Installation

1 Adapter

2 Sink coupling nut

3 Hose clamp

Special Installations are:

– Connection to a sink standpipe (see

example)

–

Miscellaneous connections where additional appliances like a washer or dishwasher are connected also.
