Levelling

Your machine may make a considerable amount of noise if the two front feet have not been adjusted correctly.

1.Install the Washer-dryer on a flat sturdy floor, without resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets or other.

2.If the floor is not perfectly level, com- pensate for any

unevenness by tightening or loosening the adjustable front feet (see figure); the angle of inclination, measured according to the worktop, must not exceed 2°.

Levelling your appliance correctly will provide it with stability 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 ventilation beneath the Washer- dryer.
