Installation Installation site ,Make sure the dryer door can be opened without hindrance after installation. Transporting the machine to its installation site When moving the machine you can hold it by the lid where it protrudes to the rear of the dryer. To manoeuvre the dryer out of its packing case to its installation site you will also need to hold it by the front feet. Building under a continous worktop / in a row of kitchen units The dryer should not be installed next to a refrigerator or freezer.
Installation Aligning the machine Room in which the dryer is located Air taken in for use in the drying process will be warm when it is expelled from the rear of the dryer. This expelled air heats up the air in the room. It is therefore very important to ensure that the room is adequately ventilated, particularly if the dryer is located in a small room. Otherwise running times and energy consumption could be increased.
Installation External condensed water outlet From the back of the dryer at the bottom: When drying is in progress, condensed water is pumped into the condensed water container through the drain hose at the back of the dryer. The condensed water can also be drained off directly if the machine is installed near a sink, drain outlet etc. so that the condensed water container does not have to be emptied. The drain hose (approx. 2 m long) is stored in the dryer.
Installation Connection to a sink drain outlet The drain hose can be connected directly to a sink drain outlet. If this nut has a flat disc sealing it you should take the disc out first. Important: if this nut has a washer or seal in it this must not be removed! ^ Attach the end of the hose to adapter 1. ^ Use a screwdriver to tighten hose clip 3 up close to the nut. If you no longer wish to use an external condensed water outlet ,Do not push the drain hose back into the dryer.
