If the hose is long and the room tempera-
ture low, the moisture might condense to
water inside the hose. This is an unavoida-
ble natural phenomenon. To prevent this
water from Iying in the hose or flowing back
into the tumble dryer, it is advisable to drill a
small hole (via. 3 mm) in the lowest point of
the hose and to place a small container be-
low it. (See picture, point B).
Once connected to the dryer, run the vent
hose to the desired outlet point, ensuring
that the run's overall length is less than 2
m, and that it contains no more than two
bends. As to the outlet itself, if you have de-
cided on a fixed wall/window grille, a good
local builder's merchant should be able to
supply you with the necessary fittings and
installation advice.
Warning! It is important that exhaust
air must not be discharged into a flue
which is used for exhausting fumes

from appliances burning gas or other
fuels.
Note that to avoid condensation problems,
it is essential that the dryer be fitted with the
flexible hose to carry its "exhaust" at least
beyond the kitchen units; preferable outside
the kitchen. In order to prevent the appli-
ance from overheating, it is important that
the steam exhaust is unobstructed. There-
fore, in case of a permanent hose fitted to
an exterior wall or ceiling, it must be ensur-
ed an exhaust capacity of at least 150 m3/
h. If the dryer is fitted next to kitchen units,
make sure that the vent hose is not
squashed. If the hose is partially squashed,
drying efficiency will be reduced, resulting in
longer drying times and higher energy con-
sumption. If the hose is completely squash-
ed, the safety cut-outs with which the ma-
chine is fitted may operate. When operating
the tumble dryer, the room temperature
must not be lower than +5°C and higher
than +35°C, as it may affect the perform-
ance of the appliance.
Electrical connection
Details on mains voltage, type of current
and the fuses required should be taken
from the type plate. The type plate is fitted
near the loading aperture (see "Product de-
scription" chapter).
Connect the machine to an earthed
socket, in accordance with current wir-
ing regulations.
