Where to install the tumble dryer
GB
If the dryer is installed below a worktop,
ensure there are 10 mm
between the upper pa-
nel 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 ensu-
res adequate air circu-
lation. Make sure the air
inlets on the rear panel are not blocked or
obstructed.
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 kit
We recommend the ventilation hose is connected to a
ventilation kit for windows or doors, available from the
retailer which originally sold you the appliance or from your
local spare parts stockist.

clip will not clamp the hose to the rear vent outlet.
The tumble dryer may protrude further forward from the
worktop. Please do not push the tumble dryer too far
backwar.
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.
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.
