[. . . ] If the machine is situated on a carpeted floor, please adjust the feet in order to allow air to circulate freely. It should have its own ventilation system which should not be joined with any other ventilation system connected to any other appliance. General safety It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt to modify this product in any way. Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the machine yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. [. . . ] Whilst drying, the tumble dryer will expel a certain amount of warm, very moist air, and this should be removed from the room as quickly as possible to prevent condensation. In an extremely well ventilated room or close to an open window, this may occur naturally. However, in general, it is better to carry the dryer's exhaust outside via the 100 mm diameter flexible hose supplied with the appliance; ending either temporarily at an open window, or permanently at a fixed ventilation grille, fitted to an exterior wall or window. The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not build up. Make sure there are no obstructing items or material near the air-intake louvres provided at the back (e. g. 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. A P1028 A P1027 Advice: If the hose is long and the room temperature low, the moisture might condense to water inside the hose. To prevent this water from Iying in the hose or flowing back into the tumble dryer, it is advisable to drill a small hole (dia. 3 mm) in the lowest point of the hose and to place a small container below it. (See picture, point B).

As to the outlet itself, if you have decided on a fixed wall/window grille, a good local builder's merchant should be able to supply you with the necessary fittings and installation advice. It is important not to connect the vent hose to, for example, a cooker hood, or a chimney or flue pipe designed to carry the exhaust from a fuel burning appliance. Electrical connection This machine is designed to operate on a 220-230 V, single-phase, 50 Hz supply. Check that your domestic electrical installation can take the maximum load required (2. 2 kW), also taking into account any other appliances in use. Connect the machine to an earthed socket, in accordance with current wiring regulations. The manufacturer declines any responsibility for damage or injury through failure to comply with the above safety precaution. Stacking kit A special stacking kit is available through your dealer, to enable the mounting of the dryer on top of your washing machine. P0055 Note that to avoid condensation problems, it is essential that the dryer be fitted with the flexible hose to carry its "exhaust" at least beyond the kitchen units; preferable outside the kitchen. In order to prevent the appliance from overheating, it is important that the steam exhaust is unobstructed. Therefore, in case of a permanent hose fitted to an exterior wall or ceiling, it must be ensured an exhaust capacity of at least 150 m3/h. If the dryer is fitted next to kitchen units, make sure that the vent hose is not squashed. If the hose is partially squashed, drying efficiency will be reduced, resulting in longer drying times and higher energy consumption. If the door is opened during drying, this button has to be depressed again after closing the door to allow the programme to continue. 4 Mains-On Light This lights up when the machine starts operating and goes out when the selector dial is on "O" and when you open the door. 9 ENGLISH 125994472. qxd 8/23/01 2:49 AM Pagina 10 (Nero/Process Black pellicola) Drying Times Cotton and Linen Selector dial: up to 150 minutes Degree of drying required Degree of spin given rpm Quantity kg 6 5 2. 5 6 5 2. 5 6 5 2. 5 6 5 2. 5 Drying times mins 115-145 95-115 60-75 110-130 90-110 55-70 100-120 80-100 40-55 95-115 75-95 35-40 Store dry 800/900 1000/1200 Iron dry 800/900 1000/1200 Synthetics Selector dial: up to 100 minutes Degree of drying required Degree of spin given rpm 650 Quantity kg 2. 5 Store dry 1 0. 5 Iron dry 650 2. 5 Drying times mins 50-60 30-35 25-30 40-50 Never overfill the drum (do not load large quilts, for example).
