ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING!
This appliance must be properly grounded.
Refer to the “Important Safety Instructions” on
page 2 for grounding instructions.
The power supply cord must be grounded. If the machine
is to be used in a wet area, the supply must be protected
by a residual current device.
Connection to a permanently wired supply point must
be made only by a qualified electrician.
As supplied: Single-phase, 230 V, 60 Hz,
2500 Watt heater rating
30 A fuse required
WARNING:
The receptacle on the rear of the machine is
designed to accommodate ASKO washers ONLY
(rated 208–240 V.) To use this receptacle, you must
use the ready-fitted plug supplied with the washing
machine or an equivalent. The supply connection
must be 208–240 V, 20 A.
ASKO washers rated 208–240 V have two internal
fuses of 15 A each.
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 noise.
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, including 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).
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.
CONDENSING DRYERS (T721/T781)
The condensing models work best when they have good
air circulation. Therefore, we don’t recommend they be
installed beneath a cabinet. If it is necessary, however,
be sure to leave a gap of at least 1/2” (12 mm) on all
sides.
If you 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). (See page 4.)
BUILT-IN INSTALLATION
NOTES: 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”.
Hole measurements are from center of hole.
There should be at least 1/2” (12 mm) of space between
the washer and dryer.
Remove cover to access
terminal box. (Requires a
20-Torx screwdriver.)
NOTE: In Canada, the dryer is delivered ready-fitted
with a four-prong plug intended for connection
to a single-phase supply.
