Where to install the tumble dryer
•
Install the dryer far
from gas ranges, stoves,
radiators or hobs, as
flames may damage it.
If the dryer is installed
below a worktop, ensure
there are 10 mm betwe-
en the upper panel of the
dryer and any objects
above it, and 15 mm
between the sides of the machine and the
walls or furniture units adjacent to it. This en-
sures adequate air circulation. Make sure the
air inlets on the rear panel are not blocked or
obstructed.
• You should also make sure that the room
in which the tumble dryer is installed is not
damp, and that it is adequately ventilated.
• ! We do not recommend that the dryer is
installed in a cupboard but the dryer must
never be installed behind a lockable door,
a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the
opposite side to that of the dryer door.
• ! The appliance must be installed with the
rear surface placed against a wall.
Ventilation
This appliance gently dries laundry by taking in cold, clean
and relatively dry air, heating it and passing it through the
fabric. To facilitate the drying process, damp air is expelled at
the rear, through a ventilation hose. When the dryer is in use,
there has to be adequate ventilation to avoid a back flow
of gases into the room from appliances burning other fuels,
including open fires.
Mobile ventilation system
When using the tumble dryer with the mobile ventilation
system, a ventilation hose must be connected. The hose
should be securely fastened to the ventilation hole at the
rear of the appliance (see “Description of the tumble dryer”).
We recommend the hose is connected to an outlet near
the tumble dryer, if possible. If it cannot be installed in a
permanent spot, the tumble dryer will still function perfectly
well if the ventilation hose is passed through a partially-
opened window.
! Make sure you do not point the ventilation hose towards
the air inlet, which is located on the rear of the appliance.
! The ventilation hose should not exceed a maximum length
of 2.4 metres; it should also be shaken frequently to remove
any fluff, dust or water deposits inside it. Make sure you do
not crush the hose.
Fixed ventilation system
We recommend the ventilation hose is connected to a
ventilation system for windows or doors, available from the
retailer which originally sold you the appliance or from your
local spare parts stockist.
Wall ventilation hole
1. Leave an opening in the wall
to the left of the tumble dryer
installation site.
2. Make the hose as short and
straight as possible, in order
to prevent any moisture from
condensing and leaking back
into the appliance.
3. The hole in the wall must
also be straight and pointing
downwards, so that the flow of air coming out is not
impeded.
Areas A and B should be checked frequently, to prevent
the accumulation of fluff or debris, particularly if the tumble
dryer is used very often. The hose adaptor must be fitted
correctly, in order to prevent damp air from coming back into
the room.
Window ventilation hole
The ventilation hole should
be directly behind the dryer in
order to keep the hose as short
as possible.
! Make sure you do not
push the tumble dryer too
far backwards, as this could
lead to the ventilation hose
being crushed, bent or even
disconnected.
! There should be no cuts, kinks or “U”-shaped bends
in the hose, as these could impede ventilation or trap
condensation.
Ventilation through an open window
The end of the hose must be
facing downwards, in order to
prevent the hot, damp air from
forming condensation in the
room or the tumble dryer.
! Make sure that the tumble dryer is adequately ventilated,
and that the end of the ventilation hose is not pointing
towards the air inlet pipe on the rear of the appliance.
! The ventilation hose must always be fitted to ensure
optimum performance.
! Make sure that the ventilation hose and the air inlet vents
are not obstructed or blocked.
! Do not let the tumble dryer recirculate exhaust air.
! Improper use of the tumble dryer may result in fire hazards.
! The air emitted by the tumble dryer must not be expelled in
the same duct as used for the fumes produced by different
appliances which burn gas or other fuels.
! Do not discharge the exhaust air into an extraction system
or any duct with an extractor fan. This will affect the way the
thermal controls operate and can result in a fire hazard.
Electrical connections
Before plugging the appliance into the so-
cket, check the following:
• Make sure your hands are dry.
• The socket must have an earth connec-
tion.
• The socket must be able to withstand the
machine’s maximum power output as indica-
ted on the rating plate (see Description of the
tumble dryer).
• The power supply voltage must fall within
the values indicated on the rating plate (see
Description of the tumble dryer).
• The socket must be compatible with the
dryer’s plug. Should this not be the case,
replace the plug or the socket.
! DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORDS.
! The dryer must not be installed outdoors,
even if the space is sheltered. It can be very
dangerous if exposed to rain or storms.
! Once installed, the dryer’s electrical wire
and plug must be within reach.
! The power cord must not be bent or
squashed.
! If the plug being replaced is a non-rewirable
type, then the cut-off plug must be disposed
of safely. DO NOT leave it where it can be
inserted into a socket and create a shock
hazard.
! The electric cord must be regularly
checked. If the supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or similarly qualified persons in
order to avoid a hazard. ( see Service). New or
longer power cords are supplied at an extra
charge by authorized dealers.
! The manufacturer denies any responsibility
should any of these rules not be followed.
! If in doubt about any of the above
consult a qualified electrician.
Levelling the tumble dryer
The tumble dryer should be installed level in order to
operate correctly.
After installing the tumble dryer in its permanent position,
make sure it is level; check its side-to-side levelling first,
followed by front-to-back.
If the tumble dryer is not perfectly level, use a wooden
block to support it while you adjust the two front feet, up
or down as necessary.
Before you start your dryer
Once the tumble dryer is installed, clean the inside of the
drum before operating it and remove any dirt accumulated
during transportation.

1) The "standard cotton” at full and partial load are the standard programmes to
which the information in the label and the fiche relates. The standard cotton
program is suitable to dry at cupboard level (0%) cotton laundry and is the most
efficient programme in terms of energy consumption. Partial load is half the rated
load.
2) based on 160 drying cycles of the standard cotton programme at full and partial
load, and the consumption of the low-power modes. Actual energy consumption
will depend on how the appliance is used.
3) Weighted average of 3 cycles at full load and 4 cycles at half load.
