Packaging, damages, handling • Keep the packaging foil away from children; danger of suffocation. • Do not operate the dryer if it has been damaged during transport or later. • If the dryer was exposed to the cold before delivery, keep it at room temperature for a few hours before installation. [. . . ] • Carefully level the dryer by adjusting the four feet; check the correct leveling with a level. • Before running the first drying cycle, ensure that the water container is fully pushed inside and that the bottom filter is correctly positioned (see chapter DESCRIPTION OF THE DRYER). • Also make sure that all hoses of the drainage system are connected as shown in the picture below. If possible you can drain the water directly into the domestic plumbing system. This will avoid having to empty the water container at the end of each drying cycle since the condensation water can be directly drained away (see chapter DRAINAGE SYSTEM).
