Delivery specification: dryer, instructions for installation and use.
Check dryer for transport damage.
The dryer is very heavy. Do not attempt to lift it on your own.
Be careful to avoid sharp edges.
Do not lift the dryer by any of the protruding parts (e.g. the door) as they may break off.
Do not set up in a room that is susceptible to frost.
Freezing water may cause damage.
If in doubt, have the appliance connected by an expert.
Setting up the dryer
The appliance plug must always be accessible.
Ensure that the appliance is installed on a clean, level
and solid surface.
Keep the cooling grille at the front of the dryer
unobstructed.
Keep the area around the dryer clean.
Make the dryer level using the threaded feet
and a spirit level.
Do not remove the threaded feet under any
circumstances.
Mains connection see safety instructions
