Installation and connection Rear view Installation site This dryer can be accommodated under a worktop if there is sufficient height. ,Do not install the dryer in a location where its door could conflict with room doors. ,The appliance top is not removable. Carrying the dryer to the installation site a Handgrips under the cover overhang for moving the appliance (arrows) b Power cord c Rear venting connection The rear cover overhang provides handgrips for transport.
Installation and connection Leveling the dryer ,Ensure that is an air gap of at least 10 mm between the underside of the dryer and the floor. This air gap must not be restricted by power bars, high-nap carpets, etc. Otherwise, sufficient air flow cannot be guaranteed. Ventilating the installation area To ensure trouble-free operation, the dryer must be perfectly level. ^ Compensate for floor irregularities by turning the threaded feet in or out.
Installation and connection Electrical connections GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Installing the dryer vent General Important Avoid: – very long ducting systems. – too many sharp bends or corners. The dryer should only be operated when the moist air produced by drying is ducted to the outside, by means of: . . . . . a flexible venting house, or piping connected to the dryer, or . . . a direct connection to a through-wall pipe. – The appliance should not be electrically connected while the venting is being installed.
Installing the dryer vent Calculating total duct length Each of bends and differing components of the dryer's venting creates its own frictional resistance to the flow of the exhaust air. This frictional resistance is expressed in a comparative duct length. The comparative duct length indicates the length of a smooth straight pipe (of the same diameter), producing the same resistance to air flow as the original ducting component (Table I).
Installing the dryer vent Rear or side exhaust connection Calculation example At the rear Dryer is delivered with this connection open. ^ Install the vent duct as described on the following pages. Sideways to left or right A Wall pipe, with grill insert = 1 x 3.8 m Comparative duct length B/D 2 elbows, 90° = 2 x 0.8 m Comparative duct length C = 1.6 m 0.5 m plastic piping = 0.5 x 1 m Comparative duct length E = 3.8 m = 0.5 m Left side vent opening = 1 m Comparative duct length = 1.
Installing the dryer vent Overview of vent systems On this and the following pages you will find descriptions of four venting systems (a b c d) that can be installed on the dryer. a Flexible metal duct hose Using the adapter provided, you can easily install a vending duct house (diameter 100 mm). You require – a duct hose (flexible or Alu-Flex). – a wall pipe kit or a window vent kit. ^ Install the pipe (2) on the dryer using an adapter (1). Examples are shown on the next page.
Installing the dryer vent Examples: Connection to exhaust flue Window vent 1. Pipe with connector 1. Window vent kit (fitted in plexiglass pane) 2. Adapter for flexible vent hose 2. Adapter for flexible vent hose 3. Exhaust flue, insulated against damp ,Ducting must not be connected to a fireplace or gas flue that is in use, nor to ducting which ventilates rooms with fireplaces.
Installing the dryer vent b Dryer vent systems from metal piping Example Smooth piping makes sense where the vented air has to be carried a considerable distance. A pipe offers less resistance to the discharge air than does, for instance, a flexible ventilation duct. Time and energy consumption improve with smooth piping. You require – a connector adapter* (diameter 100 mm). – a wall pipe kit or a window vent vent kit. – Metal venting pipe from a builder or plumbing supplier(diameter 100 mm).
Installing the dryer vent c Connecting directly to a wall vent Side view: If you can place the dryer directly against the external wall of the room, this vent configuration is advantageous. The short overall pipe length has a beneficial effect on time and energy consumption. However, you must make an opening in the wall to install the wall kit. You will need a wall pipe kit as well as a flexible spacer ring. A Before breaking through the wall... . . . . .
Installing the dryer vent d Vent collector duct To prevent condensed water buildup in the non-operating dryers: ^ For each dryer, install a non-return flap R directly on the collector duct. You will need an optional Miele accessory* (see right) for this. When installing from 3 to a maximum of 5 dryers, the pipe diameterD must be enlarged.
