Dryers
ElEctrical connEction
The heater on the electric model is larger than a standard European
model, and the total power required to operate the dryer is more than
a normal 13 amp socket can provide. It is therefore necessary to
connect the power cable directly into a suitable electrical supply that
is rated at 30 amps or above, i.e., a spare cooker box.
VEnting
The dryer should be vented to avoid excessive buildup of
condensation in the room. The venting outlet on the dryer is a
standard 100 mm (4") and does not require any special adapters to
connect it to the dryer. Use metal ducting or a flexible metal hose.
A standard length metal hose is provided with most models; longer
lengths or kits with an elbow are available from Whirlpool Service,
telephone: 0870 600 8989, or from most DIY stores or builder
merchants.
If in doubt about any of the installation requirements, please contact
our technical advice department at 020 8649 5228.
