Installation of the appliance
3Washing machines with curved panels are not suitable for installing
under units.

Transporting the appliance

•Do not place the washing machine on its front or on its right side
(viewed from the front). Otherwise, electrical components can get
wet.

When transporting the unit with a sack trolley:
•Attach the sack trolley only at the side. The sack trolley shovel must
not be longer than 24 cm, otherwise the float switch can be de-
stroyed.

transport packaging in a safe
place for future use.
