Freestanding, floor level installation
• The room: Position the dryer on floor level, in a clean and dry, well ventilated area,
away from heat and direct sunlight. Dirt must not be allowed to build up in the area,
and air must be able to circulate freely all around the appliance. Do not obstruct the
front air inlet or the air intake grilles at the back of the machine.
• The floor: To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the dryer is in use, make
sure the floor surface is firm, flat, dry and stable. Do not place the appliance on
soft material such as foam, plastic or carpet, as this could block the air intake. Do
not restrict the floor clearance through deep pile carpets, strips of wood or similar
(Fig. 1). This might cause heat build-up, which could interfere with the operation of
the appliance.
• The area: For your convenience, we recommend you position the dryer near your
washing machine. Also ensure there is an appropriate electrical outlet nearby. At least
10cm of clear space is recommended between the dryer and any wall(s).
Levelling the appliance
• The appliance must be installed level, otherwise its operation will be impaired. When
you have placed the dryer in its permanent position, use a spirit level to ensure the
appliance is level.
• If your floor is slightly uneven, adjust the feet with a tool (Fig. 2).
• Never remove the feet of the appliance, which would restrict the floor clearance
required.
