Warning and Safety instructions
~
Adequate ventilation is essential to avoid the danger of
asphyxia and toxic fumes where another appliance which also
uses the room air (e.g. gas, oil or coal fired heater, continuous flow
or other water heater) is installed in the same or an adjacent room.
To ensure safe operation, and to prevent gases given off by these
appliances being drawn back into the room, an underpressure of 4
Pa is the maximum permissible.
Ventilation can be maintained by:
– air inlets in the external wall which cannot be closed or blocked,
or
– by fitting a window contact switch which ensures that the
appliance can only be operated when the window is open.
If in doubt, the advice of a competent builder must be sought.
~
If more than one tumble dryer is being installed using a joint
ducting system, each dryer must have its own non-return flap to the
joint ducting system.
Otherwise the dryers could be damaged, endangering their
electrical safety.
~
The fluff filter must be cleaned regularly.
~
The tumble dryer must not be used without the fluff filters in place
or if the fluff filter is damaged in any way. A damaged filter can
cause operational faults and blockages in the airways, the heating
elements and in the ducting. Fire hazard!
In the event of a damaged filter, switch the appliance off and
replace the filter with a new one.
~
Do not install the tumble dryer in a room where there is a risk of
frost occurring. At temperatures around freezing point the appliance
may not be able to operate properly.
The ambient room temperature should be between +2°C and +50°C
