To prevent this water from Iying in the hose or flowing back into the tumble dryer, it is advisable to drill a small hole (dia. 3 mm) in the lowest point of the hose and to place 7 ENGLISH 125980052. qxp 2005-06-14 14:03 Page 8 a small container below it. (See picture, point B). it is important that the steam exhaust is unobstructed. Therefore, in case of a permanent hose fitted to an exterior wall or ceiling, it must be ensured 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 consumption. If the hose is completely squashed, the safety cut outs with which the machine is fitted may operate. P1056 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. 5 m, and that it contains no more than two bends. As to the outlet itself, if you have decided 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. It is important not to connect the venthose to, for example, a cooker hood, or a chimney or flue pipe designed to carry the exhaust from a fuel burning appliance. Electrical connection This machine is designed to operate on a 220 230 V, single phase, 50 Hz supply. Check that your domestic electrical installation can take the maximum load required (2. 2 kW), also taking into account any other appliances in use. Connect the machine to an earthed socket, in accordance with current wiring regulations. At the end of drying, there is a 10 minute cooling phase to cool the laundry. If light or is flashing, this means that the Start button needs to be pressed again for the programme to resume. "End of programme" light This light flashes at the end of the cooling phase and during the anti creasing phase. 9 125980052. qxp 2005-06-14 14:03 Page 10 "Anti creasing phase" light This light flashes alternately with the light at the end of the drying phase (after cooling) and during the anti creasing phase. If only light flashes, this means that the anti creasing phase has finished. 8 Programme/Time selector dial Allows you to select electronically controlled or time controlled drying. Turn the dial to the required programme or time. Electronically controlled drying (automatic) The appliance runs these programmes with the help of probes which detect the degree of dampness of the laundry. Simply select the programme according to the type of laundry and degree of drying required. Time controlled drying Can be used to finish off drying if necessary. Select the 60 minute programme for cottons ("I") or the 30 minute programme for synthetics ("L"). To cancel a programme which is running, turn the programme selector dial to "0". At the end of drying, turn the selector dial to "0" before removing the laundry. 10 125980052. qxp 2005-06-14 14:03 Page 11 Programme chart Automatic drying (electronic programmes) Degree of drying required extra dry store dry slightly damp iron dry machine iron dry extra dry store dry slightly damp Max load (1) kg 5 5 5 5 5 2. 5 2. 5 2. 5 Type of laundry Cotton Programme A B (*) C D (*) E F G (*) H Synthetics (*) According to CEI 1121 Standards.
