You MUST read them carefully before installing or using the appliance. Installation · Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person. · Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable. [. . . ] Important! P1106 Should the appliance be moved, it must be transported vertically. Positioning It is recommended that, for your convenience, the machine is positioned close to your washing machine. The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not build up. Do not obstruct the front ventilation grille or the air intake grille at the back of the machine. To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm, level surface. Once in its permanent operating position, check that the dryer is absolutely level with the aid of a spirit level. Do not restrict the floor clearance through deeppile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might cause heat build-up which would interfere with the operation of the appliance. Important The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach temperatures of up to 60°C. The appliance must therefore not be installed on floors which are not resistant to high temperatures. The power supply cable must be accessible after installing the machine. Stacking kit A special stacking kit is available through your dealer, to enable the mounting of the dryer on top of a front loading washing machine with cover's depth between 48 and 60 cm. Read carefully the instructions supplied with the kit. P1148 Door reversal To make it easier to load or unload the laundry the door can be reversed.
