DRYER PLACEMENT

a washing machine.
The dryer emits heat. Therefore, do not place it in a
very small room, as the drying process may be longer
due to limited amount of available air.
Do not place the dryer in a room where
temperature can drop below 0 °C, as the machine
may not operate correctly at such low temperatures,
or freeze, which in turn can result in damage to the
machine.
Install the dryer in a room with adequate ventilation and
a temperature between 15 °C and 25 °C.
