Tip: We recommend connecting the tumble dryer to the power supply
via a plug and socket so that it is easier to conduct electrical safety
checks (e.g. during maintenance or repair work).
It is recommended the tumble dryer is connected with a suitable plug
and socket in accordance with IEC 60309-1, however if the installa-
tion requires a hard-wired connection, an all-pole means of isolation
must be provided on site. Switches with a minimum contact gap
greater than 3 mm are suitable disconnectors. These include circuit
breakers (MCB), fuses and contactors (VDE 0660) (IEC/EN 60947)
If the mains supply cannot be permanently disconnected, the isolation
device (including plug and socket) must be safeguarded against being
switched on either unintentionally or without authorisation.
The tumble dryer must not be connected to devices such as timers

which would switch it off automatically.
Once the electrical connection has been established, the rotation dir-
ection of the fan impeller must be checked. It must rotate clockwise.
If the fan impeller rotates anti-clockwise, two phases on the mains
terminal must be swapped.
If it is necessary to install a residual current device (RCD) in ac-

cordance with local regulations, a residual current device type B
(sensitive to universal current) must be used.

Air intake/exhaust air

The tumble dryer may only be operated when the ducting has been
connected properly and the room is sufficiently ventilated.

Steam connection (only for steam-heated variants)

The steam connection must only be carried out by a registered install-
ation technician. The enclosed installation instructions must be ob-
served as they are important for the steam connection.

Hot water connection (only for hot water-heated variants)

The hot water connection may only be carried out by a registered in-
stallation technician.
The installation instructions must be observed as they are important
for the hot water connection.
If a stopcock is desired, it must be fitted on site.

Gas connection (only for gas-heated variants)

The gas connection may only be carried out by a registered installa-
tion technician in accordance with the applicable national regula-
tions.
The use of a gas socket for the supply hose is not permitted as
the flow rate is too low for the specified heater rating.
The gas heating is configured at the factory in line with the gas spe-
cifications on the sticker on the rear of the appliance.
