Installation

Appliance positioning

• It is recommended that, for your convenience, the machine is positioned close to your
washing machine.
• The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not build up.
• Air must be able to circulate freely all round the appliance. Do not obstruct the front
ventilation grille or the air intake grilles at the back of the machine.
• To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the dryer is in use, it should be placed
on a firm, level surface.
• Once in its permanent operating position, check that the dryer is absolutely level with
the aid of a spirit level. If it is not, raise or lower the feet until it is.
• The feet must never be removed. Do not restrict the floor clearance through deeppile
carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might cause heat built-up which would interfere
with the operation of the appliance.
• The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach temperatures of up to 60°C. The
appliance must therefore not be installed on floors which are not resistant to high tem-
peratures.
• When operating the tumble dryer, the room temperature must not be lower than +5°C
and higher than +35°C, as it may affect the performance of the appliance.
• Should the appliance be moved, it must be transported vertically.
• The appliance must not be installed behind the lockable door, a sliding door a door with
a hinge on the opposite side to that of the appliance in such a way that a full opening
of the dryer is restricted.
