| Unpacking and levelling |
2. If the floor is not perfectly level, compensate for any |
unevenness by tightening or loosening the adjustable front |
feet (see figure); the angle of inclination, measured accor- |
ding to the worktop, must not exceed 2°. |
Levelling your appliance correctly will provide it with sta- |
bility and avoid any vibrations, noise and shifting during |
operation. If it is placed on a fitted or loose carpet, adjust |
the feet in such a way as to allow enough room for ventila- |
tion beneath the washing machine. |

Levelling
Your machine may make a considerable amount of noise if the two front feet have not been adjusted correctly. 
1. Install the washing machine
on a flat sturdy floor, without
resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets or other.
3. Make sure there are no kinks or bends in the hose.

(on the page 5).
