A Installing the machine
CAUTION! This clothes dryer is extremely heavy - transport it with care! A team lift or mechanical aid is required when moving it.
Where to Install?
This appliance has been designed for freestanding, floor-level installation. Make sure the floor surface is firm, flat, dry and stable, and there is an appropriate electrical wall outlet nearby. Do not place the appliance on soft material such as foam, plastic or carpet, as this may block the air intake.
Important Installation Notes
IMPORTANT! This clothes dryer must be installed by a competent person. Installation involves removing any packaging, leveling the machine, connecting it to the included vent hose and connecting this hose to an outlet point. For detailed installation instructions, please consult the supplied instruction manual, which also has comprehensive usage instructions and important safety advice.
