Safety and warning signs Gas Data Natural Gas The natural gas supply pressure to the dryer must be between 6 and 10 inches water column. If the pressure is too low, ignition failure and/or slow drying times may result. Excessively high supply pressure will result in erratic operation of the gas valve’s internal pressure regulator.
Page 11
Safety and warning signs IMPORTANT: Water column pressure of 4.2 -inches for natural gas dryers and 11.0 inches for propane gas dryers is required at the gas valve pressure tap (2) of each dryer for proper and safe operation. A 1 /8” N.P.T. plugged tap, accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed in the main gas supply line immediately upstream of each dryer.

Safety Precautions Safety Precautions This machine is only intended for drying water-washed garments. Clothes that have been cleaned with chemicals/flammable liquids, must NOT be dried in the machine. Remove clothes from the tumble dryer as soon as they are dry. This prevents them from becoming creased, and reduces the risk of spontaneous ignition.

Setup Setup Positioning Locate the dryer to ensure easy use and service. The distance to the wall or other equipment behind the dryer should be min. 20 inch (500 mm). Apart from the minimum distances shown on fig. 1 there are no further requirements to the distance around the dryer.
Setup Connection to network If several tumble dryers are to be connected to a network, the plugs A in the side panels must be removed before the dryers are installed. A bushing for network cables must be installed from the inside in the right-hand side panel. The bushing must be pushed right through the hole in the left-hand side panel on the side of the dryer.
Setup Unpacking Handle the machine carefully when unpacking. There are no transport fittings. Remove the dryer from the pallet At least 2 people are required to remove the dryer from the pallet. The dryer is secured to the pallet with 3 transport screws.
Installation Installation Mechanical installation Adjust the dryer so that it is horizontal and stable on all four feet. The height of the feet can be regulated by a maximum of 50 mm / 1 15/16 inch. Once adjustment is complete, lock the feet with the self-locking nuts.
Installation Evacuation system Fresh-air For maximum efficiency and the shortest possible drying time, it is important to ensure that fresh air is able to enter the room from the outside in the same volume as that blown out of the room. To avoid a draught in the room, it is advisable 5 x A to place the air inlet behind the dryer.
Installation Exhaust duct • The exhaust duct must be smooth on the inside (low air resistance). • The exhaust duct must lead to the outdoors. • The exhaust duct must lead clear of the building as condensation may cause frost damage to the building. • The exhaust duct must be protected against rain and foreign objects. • The exhaust duct must have gentle bends. • The exhaust duct must not be a shared duct between dryers and appli- ances using gas or other fuels as their energy source. When several dryers share an exhaust duct • The exhaust duct diameter must increase after each dryer. The table below shows the exhaust duct diameter and the necessary fresh-air inlet area.

Installation Test run Loosen the pressure measuring tap screw (2) 1/4 of a turn. Connect a manometer to the measuring tap. Select a program that uses heat. Start the dryer. Check the nozzle pressure, see table. If necessary adjust the regulator setting screw (4) found behind cover screw (3).
Conversion kit for propane gas is enclosed in secondary packing. Please contact your dealer or Electrolux if the current gas type is not propane/ natural gas. Nozzles sizes depending on altitudes The nozzles have to be ordered separately from the Spares Dept.
Installation Conversion instructions 1. Disconnect the power to the dryer. 2. Dismount the back panel. 3. Remove nozzle (1), see Fig. 3. 4. Mount the enclosed nozzle (1), see Fig. 1. 5. Loosen the measuring branch screw (2) 1/4 turn; connect a manometer to the measuring branch (2), see Fig.

Installation Before servicing the tumble dryer While one tumbler in a dryer is being serviced, the other must not be in use. If the top dryer or the bottom dryer needs servicing, the remaining tumbler may be kept in service if it is operating properly. While one pocket is being serviced, all power to the machine must be shut off at the circuit breakers.
