ENGLISH CONNECTING TO A VENTILATION DUCT (T700/T760) 1. Connect the exhaust hose to a ventilation exhaust fitting or to a discharge through the wall. 2. Secure the hose joint to the outlet stub on the machine. 3. Run the hose with as few bends as possible to the point of discharge. If necessary, it can be extended to a maximum of 22 feet (660 cm) of 4" (10 cm) diameter ridged pipe. Make any bends as gentle as possible. A maximum of four 90° bends may be fitted in the hose. The more bends and the longer the hose, the less air will circulate through the machine, which will impede drying performance. Subtract 4 feet (120 cm) for every 90° elbow. Installation Examples If more than 22 feet of hose is needed, the diameter must be increased to 6" or 8" (152 mm or 203 mm). WARNING! This appliance should not be exhausted into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, or a concealed space of a building. Only a metal ventilation grill should be used. If the hose is taken to a wall outlet, a ventilation grill should be fitted to prevent reverse flow of cold air. Fit the ventilation grill to the outside or inside of the wall. Ventilation grill Subtract 4 feet (120 cm) for every 90° elbow. NOTE: Make sure nothing is blocking the ventilation grill. If there is only one vent duct from the room, a vent spacer must be fitted. NOTE: When installing in warm climates (77°F and above) with high humidity levels, do not route the air exhaust hose upwards. FREESTANDING INSTALLATION The dryer can be placed next to the washing machine. It is essential that the machine is leveled and the locknuts are tight to eliminate vibration. There should be at least 1/2" (12.5 mm) of space between the washer and dryer. Vent spacer BUILT-IN INSTALLATION MODELS T700/T760 These models can be installed beneath a cabinet or worktop with a minimum height of 34" (864 mm). There must be a gap of about 1/4" (.64 mm) all around the machine, including between the rear edge of the machine top panel and the back wall. The opening width must be at least 24" (600 mm). Space must also be available for the exhaust hose on the left, right or rear of the machine. See the diagram for hole sizes and positions. Note that the hole measurements are to the center of the hole. MODELS T720/T780 The condensing models work best when they have good air circulation. Therefore, we don't recommend that they be installed beneath a cabinet. If it is necessary, however, be sure to leave a gap of at least 1/2" on all sides. NOTE: All hole measurements are to the center of the holes. NOTE: 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". Page 11
