This type of appliance expels damp air into the environment.
The air from the room enters the appliance through the slots at the rear of the unit fig. 1, (blue arrows). The
air enters the heating unit (1) through an opening located at the top of the back panel, it heats up (red
arrows), it is carried from the back panel cover into the drum (2) fig. 2. It passes through the damp washing,
reducing humidity; it leaves through the front part of the drum (here the air is hot and humid) through a fluff
filter (4) located under the door surround.
The hot, humid air passes through the conduit and enters the fan turbine (5) driven by the drum rotation
motor (6), before being expelled to the outside through the relevant exhaust outlets (7), located at the sides
and back.
Use a pipe with a maximum horizontal and vertical length of 2 m as a drainage extension.
