Positioning the tumble dryer

The tumble dryer can be freestanding or
stacked. Remember that the tumble dryer
produces heat and should therefore not be
located in a room that is too small. If the room
is very small, drying will take longer due to
the limited quantity of air.

Caution!

For proper ventilation, the machine should
not be installed behind a door.

Caution!

The vent on the bottom of the front of the
dryer must not be blocked by a carpet or rug.

Tip!

If the unit must be installed behind a door
should be louvered. To improve ventilation,
the door where the tumble dryer is located
should be left open when the dryer is in use.

Caution!

Any electrical installation should be carried
out by qualified professionals.

A. Freestanding

The tumble dryer can be positioned beside
the washing machine.

B. Stacked

The tumble dryer can be placed on top of a
Asko washing machine. To stack the dryer,
you need the stacking attachments (foot cups
and anti-tip devices) that come with the ma-
chine: You will find 2 foot cups in a bag in the
drum and 2 anti-tip devices attached to the
bottom left corner at the back of the machine.
Extension plates can be ordered from your
local retailer.

C. Built-in

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, includ-
ing 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 con-
densing 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).

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” (876 mm). Hole measure-
ments are from center of hole.
