A WARNING A
Do not install the dryer:

The installation room must be well
ventilated, otherwise the dryer will
operate below optimum performance.
Do not operate the dryer at

the minimum distances according to
the following table:

Depending on the location of the
exhaust air connection, an
additional minimum distance of
5^ inch (14 cm) must be provided
on this side for pipes/brackets (see
page 7).
- Distances above the indicated
minimum dimensions reduce the
risk of mold formation behind the
appliance.
- Additional distances reduce noise
transmission.
- Additional distances facilitate
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.
The dryer door is delivered with hinges
on the right. If required, the door hinges
can be switched to the left side.
