Hose for external drainage of
condensed water
The condensed water is pumped
away through the drain hose at the
back of the dryer.
Positioning the drain hose
,
Do not pull on the drain hose
and do not stretch it or allow it to
become kinked as it could get
damaged.
^
Use the bow-shaped guide to
prevent the drain hose from
becoming kinked.
Drain hose length: .........1400 mm
Delivery head:.............1000 mm
Extension hose supplied (including
connector): ...............1950 mm
,
Certain installation conditions
require the dryer to be fitted with a
non-return valve (available as an
optional accessory). See "Drain hose
connection".
,
A non-return valve will prevent
the risk of back-flow into the dryer
which could cause damage.
Drain hose connection
Direct into a sink or basin
–
Secure the hose carefully (e.g. by
tying it to a tap to make sure it
cannot slip during use).
Otherwise there is a risk of
overflowing water which could cause
damage.
–
Fit a non-return valve if the end of the
hose could become immersed in
water.
Connected securely to a floor gully
– It is essential to fit a non-return valve.
Connected directly to a sink drain outlet
– It is essential to fit a non-return valve.
If the tumble dryer is to be connected
to a drainage system already in use by
another appliance, e.g. a dishwasher
– It is essential to fit a non-return valve.
