INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Read these instructions carefully before you install the machine. The installation should be carried out by a
qualified person who is familiar with all local codes and ordinances for electrical connections. Incorrect
installation may cause damage and/or injury. If the integrity of the machine is in doubt, do not use it. Call
your dealer for qualified assistance.
The dryer can be installed in any room with a hard floor. Do not install it on carpeting with heavy pile.
There must be a ventilation outlet to the exterior for the exhaust duct.
WARNING!
This appliance should never be exhausted into a chimney, wall, ceiling, or concealed space of a
building. Only a metal ventilation grill should be used.
To install the tumble dryer, follow the steps below:
1. Remove the outer wrapping and the polystyrene base.
2. Move the machine into place.
3. Adjust the levelling legs by lifting the front of the dryer slightly and adjusting the feet to the correct height.
Be careful not to screw the feet down too far and do not use a screwdriver.
NOTE: A badly leveled machine may result in damage to the bearings and premature wear, so we
recommend that you use a spirit level.
4. Connect the exhaust duct to the ventilation outlet (see below).
CONNECTING THE EXHAUST DUCT
You will need a UL-CSA-approved, 4-inch ridged metal exhaust duct.
NOTE: Excessive duct and too many bends can impede drying performance. We recommend that you cut
off any excess exhaust duct and run the duct with as few bends as possible. Make any necessary
bends as gentle as possible.
To connect the exhaust duct, follow the steps below:
1. Connect the exhaust duct to the coupling nut supplied with the dryer. (See illustration below.)
2. Turn the coupling (together with the duct) counterclockwise in the air discharge outlet on the back of the
dryer.
3. Connect the other end of the exhaust duct to a ventilation exhaust fitting or to a discharge duct in the wall
and secure with a clamp.
4. It is best if the duct does not sag.
5. After you push the dryer into place, make sure there aren’t any kinks in the duct.
NOTE: Maximum duct length of 25 feet, using two 90
°
elbows is allowed. Subtract 4 feet of duct for each
additional elbow.
