exhaust air connection, an
additional minimum distance of
5½ inch (14 cm) must be provided
on this side for pipes/brackets (see
page 9).

minimum dimensions reduce the
risk of mold formation behind the
appliance.

installation and service.
- If the dryer is installed in a small
room, the doors of the room must
be fitted with vents of a specified
minimum size.

on the right. If required, the door hinges
can be switched to the left side.
If the door hinges are to be changed
over, please contact your dealer or our
customer service team (see page 21).

may result in electric shock. Have
the appliance checked by
a qualified electrician or service
technician if you are in doubt as to
