Site Preparation • The installation surface must be clean and dry. • Do not install on a deep pile carpet. • If the appliance is installed next to a heat source (e. g. cooking appli- ance), a heat insulation pad (85 x 57 cm) must be placed between the washing machine and the heat source.
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 View from right The most efficient way of venting the expelled air is via a vent hose through to the outside.
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. Ensure the vent hose is not squashed. The drying efficiency of the tumble dryer will be affected and may cause the safety cut outs to operate.
Venting Venting without a Vent Hose If a vent hose is not connected to the tumble dryer, the air can be expelled into the installation room providing the following precautions are observed. • The vent(s) in use must be at least 30 cm from the wall or any other object.
3 General Information • To prevent creasing do not exceed the maximum load stated in the program table. • When using fabric conditioning sheets, we recommend the condi- tioning sheet is pinned (using a safety pin) to an article of laundry and placed in the tumble dryer.
Environmental protection tips 2 Environmental protection tips • Your laundry will become light and soft in the tumble dryer even with- out a fabric softening agent. • Loosen your laundry before loading it into the dryer. This helps to pre- vent lengthy running times and creasing.
