Installation

Positioning

Install the machine on a flat hard floor.

Make sure that air circulation around the machine is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc.

Before placing it on small tiles, apply a rubber coating.

Never try to correct any unevenness in the floor by putting pieces of wood, cardboard or similar materials under the machine.

If it is impossible to avoid positioning the machine next to a gas cooker or coal-burning stove, an insulating panel (85x57 cm) covered with aluminium foil on the side facing the cooker or stove, must be inserted between the two appliances;

The machine must not be installed in rooms where the temperature can drop below 0.

The water inlet hose and the drain hose must not be kinked.

Please ensure that when the appliance is installed, it is easily accessi- ble for the engineer in the event of a breakdown.

Levelling

Carefully level by screwing the

adjustable feet in or out. Never place cardboard, wood or similar

materials under the machine to compensate for

any unevenness in the floor.

After having levelled the machine, tighten the lock nuts.
