Installation Safety Precautions
•Do not tilt the washing machine onto its front or onto its right side (viewed from the front). Electronic components can get wet.
•Check the washing machine for transport damages. A damaged unit must never be put into operation under any circumstances. In the event of damage, please contact your supplier.
•Ensure that all parts of the transport safeguard are removed and that the unit is splash protected, see "Removing transport safeguard". Otherwise, the units or neighbouring furniture can be damaged when spinning.
•Always insert the plug into a correctly installed earthed socket.
•In the case of permanent connection: A permanent connection may only be made by an authorised specialist.
•Before putting the machine into operation, ensure that the mains voltage and current type shown on the unit's rating plate correspond with those at the place where the machine is being installed. The fuse rating is also found on the rating plate.
•Should work be carried out on the water supply installations in order to allow the machine to be connected properly to the water supply, this work must be carried out by an authorised installer.
•Should work be carried out on the mains supply in order to allow the machine to be connected properly to the electricity supply, this work must be carried out by an authorised electrician.
•The mains lead may only be replaced by the customer service or by an authorised electrician.
