Hose Kit
Your Tumble Dryer should NOT be located adjacent to a gas hob
cooker, heater, or eye level grill as flames from the burners could
cause damage to your machine. When the dryer is fitted under a
work surface allow space for air to enter the rear grille, 10mm above
the dryer minimum.
If you are using this Dryer adjacent or stacked on top of a washing
machine SEPARATE mains plugs and sockets must be used for
each appliance. DO NOT use 2-way adaptors or extension leads.
The Dryer dries your washing by drawing in air that is cool, clean
and relatively dry, heating it and then blowing it through the clothes
as they are gently tumbled. The moisture laden air is then blown out
at the back of the dr yer through the vent hose which is
recommended for optimum performance.
When operating the dryer, there has to be adequate ventilation to
avoid the back flow of gases into the room from appliances burning
other fuels, including open fires.
A vent hose must always be fitted when the dryer is used in
conjunction with Mobile Venting.
The hose must be fitted securely into the back of the dryer (see
diagram on previous page). If possible, it is always best to connect
the hose to a permanent outlet close to the dryer (see instructions
below).
Ensure that the end of the hose is not directed towards the air
intake grille at the rear of the dryer.
If permanent installation is not possible, the dryer will work just as
well with the hose passed through a partly-opened window.
NOTE: The vent hose should not exceed 2.4 metres in length
and should be kept free of any possible accumulation of fluff,
lint (and water) by frequently shaking it out. Always ensure that
the hose is not squashed.
See diagram on previous page.
