INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION DRYER PLACEMENT The dryer can be either freestanding or installed on top of a washing machine. The dryer emits heat. Therefore, do not place it in a very small room, as the drying process may be longer due to limited amount of ambient air. Do not place the dryer in a room where temperature can drop below 0 °C (32 °F), as the machine may not operate correctly at such low temperatures or may freeze, which can result in damage to the machine. For optimum dryer operation, install it in a room with adequate ventilation and a temperature between 10 °C (50 °F) and 25 °C (77 °F). Freestanding appliance The dryer may be placed adjacent to a washing machine. If the friction between the dryer feet and the floor is not sufficient, the dryer may move during operation. To prevent sliding, use a non-slide mat or install the supplied vacuum feet onto both front feet. Do not place the dryer behind lockable or sliding doors, or doors with a hinge on the opposite side of the dryer door hinge. Install the dryer in such way that the door can always be freely opened. As this is an vented dryer, it does not have a condensate tank. The handle has solely a decorative purpose and is fixed; it is not intended for opening. If excessive force is applied, the handle may break. Never block the air vents. At least two persons are required to install the tumble dryer on top of a washing machine. Do not place the dryer on a carpet with long fibres as this may impede air circulation. Place the dryer so that it is stable. Use a spirit level to level the dryer horizontally and vertically by rotating the adjustable feet using a No. 22 (0.87") spanner (max. 15 mm (0.59")). Then, firmly tighten the jam nuts (counter nuts) by rotating them towards the appliance bottom using a No. 17 (0.67") spanner . Customer Care Center, 1-800-898-1879, www.askona.com 9

longer due to limited amount of ambient air.
Do not place the dryer in a room where
temperature can drop below 0 °C (32 °F), as the
machine may not operate correctly at such low
temperatures or may freeze, which can result in
damage to the machine.
For optimum dryer operation, install it in a room with
adequate ventilation and a temperature between
