Unpacking
All transit bolts and packing must be removed
before using the appliance.
Keep all packaging away from children.
You are advised to keep all the transit bolts for re-use
in case the machine is to be transported again.
Using a spanner unscrew and remove the two rear
bottom screws. Slide out the two plastic pins.
Lay the machine gently on its back, making sure that the
hoses are not squashed.
Remove the polystyrene block from the bottom of the
machine and release the two plastic bags.
Very carefully slide out the left polythene bag, removing
it towards the right and then downwards.
Repeat the operation for the right polythene bag,
removing it towards the left and then upwards.
Remove the polystyrene base.
Set the machine upright and unscrew the remaining
rear screw. Slide out the relevant pin.
Fill all the holes with the plastic plugs supplied with the
instruction booklet.

Positioning
Install the machine on a flat hard floor.
Make sure that air circulation around the machine is
not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that the
machine does not touch the wall or other kitchen
units.
Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials
under the machine to compensate for any unevenness
in the floor.
If the floor is carpeted or covered with crumbly or soft
material, insert a rigid support base under the feet to
prevent noise, vibration or displacement. The base
should protrude a few centimetres beyond the edges of
the machine.
Warning
The machine should NOT be placed on deep pile
carpeting.
Installation on a Suspended
Floor
Suspended wooden floors are particularly susceptible
to vibration. To help prevent vibration we recommend
you place a waterproof wood panel, at least 15 mm
thick under the appliance, secured to at least 2 floor
beams with screws. If possible install the appliance in
one of the corners of the room, where the floor is
more stable.
Note
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is
easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a
breakdown.
Plumbing In
Your new washing machine has been designed to be
permanently plumbed in to your home’s water supply
and drainage system. However, if this is not possible, it
may be connected to a suitable existing tap with the
drain hose discharging into a sink.
