Additional Grounding Procedure
Some local codes may require a separate ground. In
such cases, the required accessory ground wire, clamp
and screw must be purchased separately.
Never ground the dryer to plastic plumbing lines,
gas lines or water pipes.
Electrical Receptacle
The receptacle for the dryer cord must be located so that
the power supply cord will be accessible when the dryer
is in the installed position.
Venting
The WTA 3510, electric vented dryer, is intended to be
vented to the outdoors. To prevent build-up of moisture
and accumulation of lint indoors, as well as to maintain
maximum drying efficiency, it is recommended that the
Bosch WTA 3510 be vented to the outdoors.
Ductwork
Four-inch (approx. 100 mm) diameter ducting should be
used. Use either rigid metal or flexible metal ducting
material. DO NOT use non-metal duct with this dryer.
Exhaust ducts should be as straight as possible.
Exhaust ducting longer than recommended can extend
drying time, can collect lint and may effect dryer
performance. Joints should be secured with duct tape.
DO NOT use screws to secure joints as lint can collect
on the screws. See Step 4, Exhaust Duct, in following
section titled INSTALLATION for recommended routing
and duct length calculations.
Exhaust Vent Hood
The exhaust duct must end with an approved exhaust
vent hood with swing out damper(s). DO NOT use an
exhaust vent hood with magnetic latches. To avoid
restriction of exhaust the outlet must be a minimum of
12 inches (30 cm) above ground level, or any other
obstructing surface. See Figure 17.
Condensate Drain
The WTL 5410, electric condensation dryer, dries by
condensing the moisture from the dryer air and then
pumping this condensate out of the dryer.
The WTL 5410 must have its condensate hose
connected to a suitable drain. See Step 5, Condensate
Hose Connection, in the following section titled
INSTALLATION.
Stacking Kit
A stacking kit is supplied with each dryer in order to
stack Bosch dryer upon a Bosch washing machine.
This part is only necessary if stacking the units is
desired.
Stacking Kit with PullĆoutĆtray - WTZ 1180
As an additional accessory for purchase, Bosch offers
a stacking kit for a Bosch washer and dryer that
incorporates a pull-out-tray. The tray offers an area for
folding and easier unloading of the dryer. See your local
dealer for availability and price.
