Air is supplied via the air intake vent on the rear of the heat-pump
dryer. This vent must always be kept clear and must not be covered.
During operation, fluff can be drawn in through the air intake vent.
Fluff sucked into the dryer will settle on the heat exchangers and
impair the efficiency of the heat-pump.
Keep the area (in particular the air intake to the heat-pump) as clear
of fluff as possible.
Clean the heat exchangers regularly.
Air outlet vent
Because the heat-pump dryer operates with a closed air circuit, sep-
arate exhaust ducting is not required.
The warm air expelled from the machine as a result of cooling down
the heat-exchanger warms the room air. It is essential to ensure the
room has adequate ventilation, e.g. by providing ventilation openings
that cannot be closed whilst the machine is in use. Insufficient ventila-
tion in the room increases the time required for drying, which in turn
will increase the amount of energy required for the drying process.
The ventilation openings must, on no account, be closed or blocked
by objects.
Condensate drainage
The heat-pump in this tumble dryer operates according to the prin-
ciple of condensation. A separate floor drain must be provided in the
installation room for condensate produced during the drying process.
The condensate drainage point is located at the back of the heat-
pump dryer. Condensate can be fed via a downwards pointing pipe to
the floor drain. It must be ensured that condensate cannot flow back
into the machine.
 Risk of electric shock and injury due to using the tumble dryer
without the complete casing.
If the casing is dismantled, it is possible to come into contact with
live or rotating machine parts.
Once the tumble dryer has been installed, replace all the casing
parts that were removed.
