• The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean

place, where dirt does not build up.

• Air must be able to circulate freely all round

check that the dryer is absolutely level with

the aid of a spirit level. If it is not, raise or low-

er the feet until it is.

• The feet must never be removed. Do not re-

strict the floor clearance through deeppile

carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might

cause heat built-up which would interfere

with the operation of the appliance.
