Installation
Unpacking
All transit bolts and packing must be removed before us-
ing the appliance.
You are advised to keep all transit devices so that they can
be refitted if the machine ever has to be transported again.
After removing all the
packaging, carefully lay
machine on it's back to re-
move the polystyrene base
from the bottom.
Remove the power supply
cable and the hoses from
the hose holders on the
rear of the appliance.
Unscrew the three bolts. Slide out the relevant plas-
tic spacers.
Open the porthole and re-
move the polystyrene
block fitted on the door
seal.
Fill the smaller upper hole
and the two large ones
with the corresponding
plastic plug caps supplied
in the bag containing 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. Level the washing machine by rais-
ing or lowering the feet. The feet may be tight to adjust as
they incorporate a self locking nut, but the machine MUST
be level and stable.
Any necessary adjustment can be made with a spanner.
Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and displace-
ment of the machine during operation. Never place card-
board, wood or similar materials under the machine to
compensate for any unevenness in the floor.
If necessary, check the
setting with a spirit level.
Installation on suspended flooring
Suspended wooden floors are particularly susceptible to
vibration.
To help prevent vibration we recommend you place a wa-
terproof wood panel, at least 15 mm thick under the appli-
ance, secured to at least 2 floor beams with screws, the
wood panel must extend beyond the front feet.
If possible install the appliance in one of the corners of
the room, where the floor is more stable.
Rubber feet kit (4055126249)
Available from your authorized dealer.
The rubber feet are particularly recommended on floating,
slippery and wooden floors.
Mount the rubber feet to prevent vibration, noises and dis-
placement of the appliance during operation.
Read carefully the instructions supplied with the kit.
