Configuració i instal·lació
Proper installation is crucial for the performance, safety, and energy efficiency of your tumble dryer. Please follow these steps carefully.
Desembalatge
Carefully remove all packaging materials, including polystyrene, plastic bags, and any protective films. Check for any visible damage during transit. Report any damage to your retailer immediately and do not proceed with installation if damage is present.
Requisits d'ubicació
Place the dryer on a firm, level floor capable of supporting its weight (44 kg). Ensure adequate ventilation around the appliance, leaving sufficient space for air circulation. Avoid installing the dryer in a small, unventilated room or in areas where the temperature may fall below 5°C (41°F), as this can affect performance.

Connexió elèctrica
Connect the appliance to a properly grounded electrical outlet that meets the specifications on the rating label (voltage and frequency). Ensure the electrical circuit is protected by a fuse of appropriate rating. Do not use extension cords, multi-sockets, or adapters, as these can pose a fire hazard.
Connexió de desguàs de condensats
The dryer collects water extracted from the laundry in a condensate tank located at the top left of the appliance. This tank must be emptied after each cycle. Alternatively, for continuous drainage, connect the supplied drain hose to a suitable drain point (e.g., a sink drain or a dedicated standpipe). Refer to the full installation guide for detailed instructions on connecting the drain hose.
