INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
DRYER PLACEMENT
The dryer can be either freestanding or installed on
top of a washing machine.
The dryer emits heat. Therefore, do not place it in
a very small room, as the drying process may be
longer due to limited amount of ambient air.
Do not place the dryer in a room where
temperature can drop below 0 °C (32 °F), as the
machine may not operate correctly at such low
temperatures or may freeze, which can result in
damage to the machine.
For optimum dryer operation, install it in a room with
adequate ventilation and a temperature between
10 °C (50 °F) and 25 °C (77 °F).
Do not place the dryer behind lockable or sliding
doors, or doors with a hinge on the opposite side of
the dryer door hinge. Install the dryer in such way
that the door can always be freely opened.
As this is an vented dryer, it does not have a
condensate tank. The handle has solely a decorative
purpose and is fi xed; it is not intended for opening. If
excessive force is applied, the handle may break.
Never block the air vents.
At least two persons are required to install the
tumble dryer on top of a washing machine.
Do not place the dryer on a carpet with long
fi bres as this may impede air circulation.
Freestanding appliance
The dryer may be placed adjacent to a washing
machine.
If the friction between the dryer feet and the fl oor is
not suffi cient, the dryer may move during operation.
To prevent sliding, use a non-slide mat or install the
supplied vacuum feet onto both front feet.
Place the dryer so that it is stable. Use a spirit level
to level the dryer horizontally and vertically by
rotating the adjustable feet using a No. 22 (0.87")
spanner (max. 15 mm (0.59")). Then, fi rmly tighten
the jam nuts (counter nuts) by rotating them towards
the appliance bottom using a No. 17 (0.67") spanner

AIR EXHAUST
The tumble dryer must only be operated when it
is correctly fi tted with exhaust duct.
Connecting the exhaust duct to the dryer
You will need to purchase a UL-CSA-approved
4" ridged metal exhaust duct. The dryer is delivered
with the stub pipe attached to the rear exhaust
outlet, though the exhaust duct can be attached to
either the left or the right exhaust outlet.
To connect the exhaust duct to the left or right side
outlet, follow the steps below:
1. Using a fl at-head screwdriver, turn the exhaust
outlet cover you plan to use to the right or left to
align the tabs holding the cover in place.
2. Remove the exhaust outlet cover.
3. Remove the stub pipe from the rear exhaust outlet
and place it in the outlet you plan to use.
4. Use the exhaust outlet cover you removed from
the to cover the rear exhaust outlet.
Asko dryers have a "T-style" exhaust
vent that allows you to connect the duct
on the rear, on the left, or on the right
side

The duct must not be assembled with screws or
other fasteners that extend into the duct and catch
lint.
To connect the exhaust duct to the outlet, follow the
steps below:
• Push the duct onto the stub pipe and secure it
with a clamp.
• After you push the dryer into place, check for
kinks in the duct.
Excessive duct length and too many bends can
impede drying performance. We recommend that
you cut off any excess exhaust duct and run the duct
with as few bends as possible. Make any necessary
bends as gentle as possible.
Maximum duct length of 60 feet. A maximum
of 4 elbows may be used, but 4 feet of duct must
subtracted from the total vent length for every 90°
elbow used.
To reduce the risk of fi re, this appliance must
be exhausted OUTDOORS or the equivalent. Never
cover the end of the dryer stub or exhaust duct with
anything to catch lint, except for UL approved vent
basket.
15
Customer Care Center, 1-800-898-1879, www.askona.com
Connecting to a ventilation duct
You will need a UL-CSA-approved, 4-inch ridged
metal exhaust duct. If a fl exible duct is used, it must
comply with the Outline for Clothes Dryer Transition
Duct. Subject 2158A and maximum length of 2.4 m
(8 feet).
The more bends and the longer the duct, the
less air will circulate through the machine, which
will impede drying performance. We recommend
that you cut off any excess exhaust duct and run the
duct with as few bends as possible. And make any
necessary bends as gentle as possible.
Maximum duct length of 60 feet. A maximum
of 4 elbows may be used, but 4 feet of duct must
subtracted from the total vent length for every 90°
elbow used.
When installing in warm climates (77° F and
above) with high humidity levels, do not route the air
exhaust duct upwards.
Examples of installations
subtract 4 feet for
every 90° elbow
To connect the exhaust duct to a ventilation
outlet, follow the steps below:
1. Connect the exhaust duct to a ventilation exhaust
fi tting or to a discharge through the wall.
2. Secure the duct joint to the outlet stub on the
machine.
3. Run the duct with as few bends as possible to the
point of discharge.
Ventilation grill (not
supplied with machine)
This appliance shall not be exhausted into a
chimney, a wall, a ceiling, an attic, a crawl space
or a concealed space of a building. Only a rigid or
fl exible metal duct shall be used for exhausting. Only
a metal ventilation grill shall be used. If the duct is
taken to a wall outlet, a ventilation grill shall be fi tted
to prevent reverse fl ow of cold air. Fit the ventilation
grill to the outside of the wall.
Avoid:
• very long exhausting systems
• too many corners
• tight corners
These reduce effi ciency and increase time and
energy consumption.
Risk of Fire.
A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. The dryer
must be connected to an exhaust to the outdoors.
Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust opening and
remove any accumulation of lint around the outdoor
exhaust opening and in the surrounding area.

This chapter includes several tips on how to prepare
the laundry for drying.
LAUNDRY SORTING
Sort the laundry according to:
• type,
• fabric thickness.
For the most even drying, make sure the laundry is
made of a similar material.
CLOTHING
1. Close the buttons, zips, and hook-and-loop
fasteners, so that they do not damage the fabric.
2. Turn the pockets inside out.
3. Place very sensitive clothes in a special-purpose
laundry washing bag.
Laundry to be dried in the dryer should be spun
at a minimum of 1000 rpm. Higher spinning speeds
will save energy and cut drying time.
If you decide to dry only one large item, we
recommend drying it separately from smaller items of
laundry.

consists of dust and fabric fragments collected
during the use of the laundry.
MATERIALS (FABRICS) THAT MAY NOT BE
DRIED IN A TUMBLE DRYER
This symbol means that the material is not
suitable for drying in a tumble dryer.
Never tumble dry the following:
• clothing that was chemically cleaned (or dry-
cleaned) at home,
• foam,
• glass fi bres.
Static electricity
To reduce the risk of static electricity in the

Problem/error Cause What to do?
Laundry not dried
or drying takes too
long.
• Filters are not clean. • Clean the filters (see chapter "CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE").
• Dryer is placed in a closed
room; room that is too cold; or
room that is too small and the
air overheats as a result.
• Make sure there is adequate supply of fresh air
to the dryer; for example, open the door and/or
window.
• Check if the temperature in the room where the
dryer is installed is too high or too low.

noise appears.
• If the dryer is out of use for
a long period of time, the
same points of load-bearing
elements or components
are under stress for a long
time, causing temporary
deformation.
• The noise will subside without any intervention.
The door opens
during drying.
• Excessive load on the door
(too much laundry in the
drum).
• Reduce the amount of laundry.
