Installation - Venting; Exhaust Venting - Miele T 1526 Operation Manual

Exhaust venting

The moist air from the dryer must be
vented to the outside.
The appliance should not be vented
into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, or
any concealed spaces of the building.
When installing, try to avoid:
– very long venting systems
– too many bends or angles
– tight corners
otherwise . . .
. . . the drying results will be affected,
. . . drying will take longer and use more
energy.
Materials suitable for venting:
– rigid metal pipe
– flexible metal pipe
Install the venting in such a way that
the expelled air cannot be drawn
back into the machine.
Do not vent the dryer into a flue
used by gas or fuel boilers or
heaters.
A vent connector is included with the
machine. It should be pressed into the
vent outlet and will simplify the connec-
tion of the exhaust pipe.
Before installation, disconnect the
tumble dryer from the electrical sup-
ply (unplug from the wall socket, or
turn off the circuit breaker.

the connector installed on the rear
