Installation

Positioning the tumble dryer

The tumble dryer can be positioned as

freestanding or in a stack. Remember that

the tumble dryer produces heat and should

therefore not be located in a room that is

too small. If the room is very small, drying

will take longer due to the limited quantity of

air.

Caution!

The machine must not be installed behind a

lockable door, a sliding door or a door with

hinges on the opposite side to those of the

tumble dryer.

Advice!

To improve ventilation, leave the door to

the room where the tumble dryer is located

open.

Caution!

Any electrical installation must be carried

out by authorised professionals.

A. Freestanding

The tumble dryer can be positioned beside

the washing machine.

B. Stacking

The tumble dryer can be placed on top of

an Asko washing machine. In this case you

use the stacking attachments that come

with the machine:

2 foot cups. These can be found in a bag in

the drum.

2 anti-tilt devices. These come attached to

the bottom left corner on the back of the

machine.

Extending plates can be ordered from your

local retailer.

How to fit the stacker:

1. Undo the two screws indicated on the

back of the washing machine.

2. Secure the anti-tilt device using the

screws as shown in the picture.

3. Attach the plastic cups that will hold the

tumble dryer’s front feet to the washing ma-

chine’s top cover. This is essential, as once

the tumble dryer’s feet are resting in the

plastic cups you know the dryer is correctly

positioned on the washing machine.
