- If the appliance is hard wired, a multiple-pole separator must be in-
stalled. Separators with a contact gap of more than ⅛" (3 mm) are
valid as separators. All components have to bear CSA or UL ap-
proval.
- The plug connection or the disconnector must be accessible at all
times.
- You must be able to lock the disconnector or monitor the point of
disconnection at all times in case the appliance has to be discon-
nected from the power supply.

Duct for venting steam

 Never connect an exhaust hood to an active chimney, dryer
vent, flue, or room venting ductwork It must also be laid separately
to any exhaust air duct used for a laundry dryer.
The moist warm exhaust air must be vented to the outdoors by the
shortest route possible. To ensure optimum air flow, the ducting
should contain as few bends as possible and airtight connections. Fil-
ters and louvers may not be installed into the exhaust duct.
Since the relative humidity can amount to up to 100 %, suitable mea-
sures must be taken to prevent condensate from flowing back into
the machine. If the available pressure of the machine fan for over-
coming conductor resistance does not suffice, an according dimen-
sioned additional fan must be installed in the shaft or roof outlet on-
site. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation in the room where the
ironer is installed
- The connection for the exhaust air duct for steam extraction is lo-
cated on the rear of the left side column and has a diameter of
2 ¾" (70 mm).
- The exhaust air duct must have an internal diameter of
2 ¾" (70 mm).
- To prevent the build-up of condensation in an upward sloping ex-
haust ducting, a ⅛" to ¼" (3 - 5 mm) diameter condensate trap
should be fitted at the lowest point.
- Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation in the room where the
ironer is installed
- The on-site ducting system and the exit point to the outside must
be checked on a regular basis for a build-up of lint and cleaned if
required.
- The air duct leading into the open should be protected against the
elements, e.g. using a suitable hood or grille or with a 90° bend.
