Haier HDV40A1 Questions & Answers
MPNs: 672194, 8186 and HDV40A1
The decal for use when inverting the dryer on a wall mount does not allow for placing the decal over the control knob(the hole is too small). I have not been able to remove the knob & the manual had no instructions for installing the decal. Should a slit bd made in the decal to enable it to be placed in the correct position around the operation knob?
Hi Margaret No need to make a slit for it the knob pulls off do it ever so slightly and with ease should come off make sure to take the old decal sticker off also
The knob does not come off & a number of people have tried.
Have wall mounted and looking to replace with correct decal, however the knob is so tight it pull the unit away from the wall and feels as if it will break, anyone else have any issue with it? Is there a trick, there's nothing in the manual.
Yes - had same issue. No- there is no trick. Just left the original label in place and learned to read upside down. Disappointed - but did not want to risk it and Haier were no help.
Cheers it definately feels like it's going to break something if I try to take it off.

You can find that info on Google search and what parts are and used from to make this wonderful dryer
Haier HDV40A1 4kg vented dryer.... this is my 1st time buying a dryer and have a question or 2.. is this suppose to have a hose, if so I never received one in box and also what can you put underneath it to protect tiles and make sure it's level on floor?? I'm too worried to try this until I know, mainly in regards to the hose part I appreciate your help
Hi KDA T. no it does not need a hose for it at all you can put the block off cap cover for it on and it comes out the front of the unit I mean the ventilation heat and air will once the back is blocked off. Also you can get like a gym mat and cut to size and put underneath it to protect tiles and Level it also or get one those heavy duty rubber mats from Bunnings and put under it either those will do the job just perfect. Or if your good with tools you can put it up on the wall upside down and out the way of having to worry about tiles. Cheers Mitch.
Thank you for your reply and that's good to know don't need a hose for it and in regards to making it level or protect tiles can I try put up on table wooden top metal frame or best to use rubber mat?? So sorry for all these questions , i really dont want to stuff dryer up. And no im not handy at all with tools and dont really have the help to mount on wall... Muchly appreciated for your response
I'm concerned if not level will stuff the dryer up . My laundry is kinda level but also kinda on a slope if that helps. And don't know where else to put it honestly, I want to keep in laundry area near my top loader washing machine. I will to try dryer out and hoping it works and doesn't make noises..... I have read good review's and bad reviews about this dryer....... Very muchly appreciated
Can you stack dryer on haier washing machine
Yes, I’ve got my dryer on top & it’s fine. I have a towel in between as a buffer. I’ve taken a photo but not sure I can add it here.
I am unable to find the correct mounting points for wall mounting
Do I remove the back outlet cover when installing in position?
Hi there, Can the Haier model HDV40A1 be turned upside down mounted on the wall.
Choice of front or rear venting Easy access lint filter Reverse tumbling Transparent door Wall brackets and reversible decal supplied
Brought this dryer about 3 years ago, had always been in rentals so it just sat on the laundry floor, always worked well! Just purchased our first home and hung it on the laundry wall with all the supplied materials, we also cleared out all filters and gave it a clean.. however since hanging it up, the clothes now don’t dry, it gets warm but not hot, we put 7 small items in the dryer last night and 2 hours later, they were still warm and damp.. I don’t know what’s going on as it worked great up until the. Has anyone had a similar experience or knows how I would fix this? Thank you.
Can the HDV40A1 be kept standing on the floor ?
Better on the wall , brackets are convientely supplied , works fine if it gets a little hot sitting on the floot just switch it on to manual every now and then and run cold air periodically, to cool it down , i never overload it ,small motor , better on a wall less hassle ,but good unit, lasted me 1 1/2 years so far.

The unit is able to stand on the floor.
Thanks
