Levelling the Appliance The appliance must be levelled using the adjustable feet. Use a screwdriver to adjust to the feet until the appliance is level. 11 Venting Venting The appliance expels hot, moist air which must be able to flow freely from the tumble dryer vent. Tumble Dryer Vents View from left Rear view View from right The most efficient way of venting the expelled air is via a vent hose through to the outside. 12 Venting Venting through a Vent Hose The vent hose expelling the hot air should be 100 mm diameter and no longer than 4 meters. Avoid bends in the vent hose as this will reduce the air flow. The maximum length of the vent hose may be: 4 meters with 0 bends, or 2 meters with 2 bends. If the vent hose is to be permanently installed to the outside, a wall box or suitable cover should be used on the outside wall. Example: A vent hose (Part number: 647 000 010) and wall box (Part number: 647 000 020) are available from your local AEG Service Force Centre.
