Ductwork
To ensure optimum performance,the ducting system of the dryershould be as short as possible witha minimum number of elbows. Your
dryer will work best when theventing system has as few air flowrestrictions as possible. Exhaustducting which is longer thanrecommended may extend dryingtime, cause lint to accumulate andaffect dryer performance and dryerlife-time.
Four-inch (approx. 100 mm)diameter ducting should be used.Use either rigid metal or flexiblemetal ducting material.DO NOT use plastic or non-metalduct with this dryer.DO NOT assemble the ductworkwith screws or fasteners that
extend into the duct. They will serveas an accumulation point for lint.Joints should be secured with duct
tape.
All joints should be tight to avoidleaks. The male end of each duct
section must point away from thedryer.Whether connecting to an existingventing system or a new ventingsystem, make sure that all ductingis clean and free of lint.
The maximum permitted length forboth rigid and flexible metal duct isshown in the table below.

length, add one 90° turn to thechart.
More than two 90 ° turns are notrecommended. For best
performance, separate all turns byat least 4 ft. of straight duct,including distance between last turnand exhaust hood.
Condensation outlet
If water from condensation builds
up in the exhaust air duct, it isrecommended that a condensation
collector (as commercially available)is fitted or that a drain hole of
approximately 3 mm in diameter isintroduced in the lowest section ofthe exhaust air duct.
Exhaust vent hood
The exhaust duct must end with an
approved exhaust vent hood withswing out damper(s). DO NOT usean exhaust vent hood with
magnetic latches.

2. Pull out power supply plug.
3. Disconnect the duct from the
dryer.
4. Vacuum and reconnect theduct.
Cleaning the moisturesensorOccasionally the moisture sensorhas to be cleaned because a fine
layer of transparent buildup isdeposited on the sensors.
Cleaning the bearingshieldOver time, fluff from the dryingprocess collects in the bearingshield.
