Figure 1.

Grounding Instructions

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of

malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the

risk of electric shock by providing a path of least

resistance for the electric current. This appliance is

equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding

conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be

plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly

installed and grounded in accordance with all local

codes and ordinances.

Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk of

electric shock. Check with a qualified

electrician or serviceman if you are in

doubt as to whether the dryer is properly

grounded.

Additional Grounding Procedure

Some local codes may require a separate ground. In

such cases, the required accessory ground wire,

clamp and screw must be purchased separately.

Never ground the dryer to plastic plumbing lines,

gas lines or hot water pipes,

Electrical Receptacle

The receptacle for the dryer cord must be located so

that the power supply cordwill be accessible when

the dryer is in the installed position.

Venting

The WTA 3500, electric vented dryer, is intended to

be vented to the outdoors.To prevent build-up of

moisture and accumulation of lint indoors, as well as

to maintain maximum dryingefficiency, it is

recommended that the Bosch WTA 3500 be vented to

the outdoors.

Ductwork

Four-inch (approx. 100 mm) diameter ducting should

be used. Use either rigid metal or flexible metal

ducting material. DO NOT use non-metal duct with

this dryer.

Exhaust ducts should be as straight as possible.

Exhaust ducting longer than recommended Can

extend drying time, can collect lint and may effect

dryer performance. Joints should be secured with

duct tape. DO NOT use screws to secure joints as lint

can collect on the screws. See Step 4, Exhaust

Duct, in following section titled INSTALLATION for

recommended routing and duct length calculations.

Exhaust Vent Hood

The exhaust duct must end with an approved exhaust

vent hood with swing out damper(s). DO NOT use an

exhaust vent hood with magnetic latches. To avoid

restriction of exhaust the outlet must be a minimum of

12 inches (30 cm) above ground level, or any other

obstructing surface. See Figure 7.

Condensate Drain

The WTL 5400, electric condensation dryer, dries by

condensing the moisture from the dryer air and then

pumping this condensate out of the dryer.

The WTL 5400 must have itscondensate hose

connected to a suitable drain. See Step 5,

Condensate Hose Connection, in the following

section titled INSTALLATION.

Flooring

The dryer should be installed on a level, solidly

constructedfloor. DO NOT install the dryer on a

carpeted floor.

Check the rating plate on the dryer to make sure your

machine has this rating.

Choosing the Location

The dryer should bot be installed:

•in an area exposed to drippingwater or outside

weather conditions

•in an area where it (and imthe case of the WTA

3500, its exhaust duct) willcome in contact with

combustible materials, such as, curtains, drapes

or paper.

•in areas where water may freeze

• in an area where gasoline or other flammables

are kept or stored (includinggasoline powered

vehicles or equipment).

Check local codes before choosing a location. Some

codes do not permit installationof a clothes dryer in a

garage, closet, mobile home or sleeping area. Your

local building inspector shouldbe able to advise you

of the codes in your area.

Figure 3.

Built-in Installation

The Bosch dryer can be built-in: that is, you can

install the Bosch dryer under-countar in a kitchen

cabinet opening. The cabinet opening should be

square and have the dimensions as shown in

Figure 3.

Note: If installed under a countertop, the countertop

must be continuous and securely attached to

neighboring cabinets.

DO NOT install the dryer in an area where

gasoline or other flammable materials are

kept or stored (including automobiles or

other motorized vehicles).

The dryer must be installed in a room that is

adequately ventilated. Make sure there is an

adequate supply of fresh air. Both the WTA 3500,

electric vented dryer, and the WTL 5400, electric

condensation dryer need an adequate supply of fresh

air for optimum performance

ICAUTION:

DO NOT install the dryer in a closet with a

solid door.

INSTALLATION

Step 1

Unpack the Dryer

Carefully remove the packing material from the

outside of the dryer.

Step 2

Inspect the Dryer

Thoroughly inspect the dryer, prior to installation, for

possible freight or cosmetic=damage. Report any

damage immediately. Cosmetic damage must be

reported within 5 days of installation.

Be sure to install the exhaust according to all

governing codes and ordinances. Rigid metal duct is

recommended for venting this dryer. If flexible metal

duct is used, be sure it is fully supported when the

dryer is in its final position. Excess ducting should be

trimmed off to avoid sagging or kinking of the

ductwork.

Step 3

Position Dryer near Installation Area

Move the dryer so that it is within four feet of the

desired position.

Note: Corrugated packing materia, may be used to

protect the floor. Do not use corrugated

material with staples.

Step 4

Exhaust Duct

(Model W-FA 3500 Only!)

The WTA 3500 must be exhausted to the outdoors.

The duct may be connected to the left, right or back

of the WTA 3500, electric vented dryer. If connecting

to the left or right hand side of the dryer, remove the

sealing cover from the side to be used, as shown in

Figure 4.

1. To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer

MUST BE EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS,

when installed in an alcove or closet.

2. DO NOT use non-metal duct with this

dryer.

3. DO NOT use duct smaller than 4

inches in diameter.

4. DO NOT use exhau=t hoods with

magnetic latches.

5. DO NOT exhaust the dryer into a

chimney, furnace cold air duct, attic,

crawl space, or any other ductwork

used for venting.

6. DO NOT install flexible duct in an

enclosed wall, ceiling or floor.

7. DO NOT crush or kink the duct.

8. Do clean and inspect the exhaust

system on a regular basis; once a

year, at a minimum.

9. The exhaust duct must end with

swing out damper(s).

Figure 4.

The sealing cover should then be placed over the

open vent opening at the back of the dryer, as shown

in Figure 5.

The connecting piece supplied with your WTA 3500

dryer must then be inserted in the vent opening that

will be used. See Figure 6.

Figure 6.

Checking/Installing Exhaust Ducting

The ducting system of the dryer, for optimum

performance, should be as short as possible with a

minimum number of elbows. Your WTA 3500 electric

vented dryer will work best when the venting system

has as few restrictions to the flow of air as possible.

Whether installingto an existing venting system or a

new venting system, make sure that all ducting is

clean and free of lint and does not exceed the length

per elbows as shown in Table 1, below:

Maximum length of duct

Number Rigid Flexible

of Elbows Duct Duct

030 ft. (914 cm) 20 ft. (610 cm)

1 22 ft. (670 cm) 15 ft. (457 cm)

2 14 ft. (427 cm) 9 ft. (274 cm)

3 6 ft. (183 cm) 4 ft. (122 cm)

Table 1.

Every elbow must have a minimum diameter of 4

inches (10 cm).

The above table assumes the use of an approved

exhaust vent hood with a swing out damper. DO

NOT use an exhaust vent hood with magnetic

latches. To avoid restriction of exhaust the outlet must

be a minimum of 12 inches (30 cm) above ground

level, or any other obstructing surface, as shown

below, in Figure 7.

12" (30 cm) min.

Step 5

Condensate Hose Connection

(Model WTL 5400 Onlyl)

The WTL 5400 must have its condensate drain line

installed and run to a suitable drain. The connection

for the condensate hose is located on the back of the

WTL 5400, see Figure 8.

Figure 8.

The condensate drain hose should already be

connected to the dryer. The other end should then be

placed and secured at a nearby sink or drain, or if

installed with a washer it may, room permitting, be

installed next to the washer drain hose and drained to

the same drain used by the washer.

Be sure to follow all local codes and regulations in

running the condensate to a suitable drain.
