Checklist for Installation
1. Unpack the dryer.
2. Remove all objects from the drum.
3. Check the dryer for visible
damage.
4. Position the dryer near the
installation location (see page 7).
5. If required, change the door hinge
to the left (see page 15).
6. If required, install the side or
bottom exhaust air outlet on the
dryer (see page 15).
7. Check for "Y" connection, short
hose and AQUASTOP ® Hose
included with the dryer packaging
(see page 8).
8. Connect the water supply to the
back of the dryer (see page 8 for
detailed instructions).
9. Install exhaust ductwork if
necessary.
Follow the installation instructions
supplied by the appropriate
ductwork parts manufacturers (see
page 14)
D If space is very restricted, it is
recommended to fit the initial parts
of the exhaust duct to the dryer
before the dryer is moved to its
final installation location.
10. Move the dryer to its final location.
Do not slide dryer across the
floor if height-adjustable feet
have been extended. Feet and/or
dryer base may be damaged if
dryer is slid across floor with
height-adjustable feet extended.
11. Position and then level the dryer.
The dryer should be level with all four
feet firmly on the ground. The dryer
must not wobble. If the dryer is not level
or if it does wobble, the feet must be
adjusted. Adjust the height-adjustable
feet until the dryer does not rock and is
level, both front-to-back and
side-to-side.
E3 After making preliminary
adjustments, press down on each
corner of the dryer to make sure
the unit does not wobble. If it does
wobble, lower the foot on that
corner until the foot touches the
floor firmly.
Install the dryer and level side to side
and front to back. Use a bubble level.
Never remove the height-adjustable
feet!
12. Connect the exhaust duct to the
exhaust air outlet on the dryer (see
page 13).
13. Insert the dryer electrical plug into
the wall receptacle (see page 10).
14. Read the operating instructions to
understand how your dryer
operates. (see page 16).
15. Conduct an appliance test:
E3 Check that the drum is empty.
E3 Close the dryer door.
E3 Switch the dryer to "Extra Dry"
and then press the "Start"
button.

warm, the dryer has been
connected properly.

If the dryer does not work,
switch the dryer to "OFF".
Look in the troubleshooting
section (page 25) and find the
fault.
Installation location
DO NOT install the dryer:
- outdoors
- in an environment with dripping
water,
- near flammable materials,
- in rooms which are at risk of frost,
- in rooms which may contain gas
or other fuels,
- in cupboards with Iockable doors
or in alcoves.
The installation room must be well
ventilated, otherwise the dryer will
operate below optimum performance.
Do not operate the dryer at
temperatures above 104°F (40°C) or
below 41 °F (5°C). Low temperatures
affect the automatic program sequence
and may prolong the drying times.
The installation surface for the dryer
must be clean, level and firm. Do not
install the appliance on carpets!
Compensate for uneven floors with the
height-adjustable feet.
The size of the installation area
depends on the dimensions of the
dryer. Ensure that there is adequate
room for the swivel range of the door!
