BUILT-IN causing the compressor to run continuously. If it is not possible to install the dryer anywhere else, then the refrigeration appliance must be sealed off from the dryer. Closet Install- Ventilation Requirements ASKO's front panel controls make it possible to install the washers and dryers in a closet. Make sure there is clearance between units and cabinet or wall and a 1" (25 mm) minimum clearance between the rear edge of the machine top panel and the cabinet or wall. To ensure proper ventilation, we recommend louvered doors, particularly for condenser dryers. Otherwise there must be ventilation openings in the door. See illustration for minimum ventilation openings below (gray boxes): ASKO dryers can be installed beneath a cabinet or worktop with a minimum height of 34" (864 mm). There must be a gap of about 1/2" (12 mm) all around the machine and a minimum gap of 1" (25 mm) between the rear edge of the machine top panel and the back wall. The opening width must be at least 24-1/2" (622 mm). The condensing models work best when they have good air circulation. Install the dryer so the condensed water will continuously flow into a drain or sink. You will need a drain outlet behind the unit. The maximum drain height is 40" (1016 mm). The height adjustment for the dryer is 33- 1/2" to 34-1/2" (850 mm to 876 mm). Do not raise it higher than 34-1/2" (876 mm). It is very important to avoid a buildup of heat. The warm air that is expelled from the rear of the dryer must be able to dissipate. Warm air that cannot dissipate could cause a fault. A buildup of heat could be avoided by: • Creating a gap for the dryer in the kitchen furniture plinth facing. • Creating ventilation gaps in the kitchen unit. When build under, drying times may be longer. Ensure the dryer door can be opened without hindrance after installation. The cool air intake panel at the front of the dryer must not be blocked or covered. Doing so could cause an error. The dryer should not be installed next to a refrigeration appliance. The warm air expelled from the rear of the dryer would increase the temperature around the refrigeration appliance heat exchanger 8 Customer Care Center, 1-800-898-1879, www.askona.com
