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
remove the polystyrene
base from the bottom.
Remove the power sup-
ply cable and the drain
hose from the hose hold-
ers on the rear of the ap-
pliance.
Unscrew the three bolts. Slide out the relevant
plastic spacers.
Open the porthole and re-
move the polystyrene
block fitted on the door
seal and all objects inside
the drum.
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 raising 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 dis-
placement of the machine during operation. Never place
cardboard, wood or similar materials under the machine
to compensate for any unevenness in the floor.
If necessary, check the
setting with a spirit level.
