Remove the Shipping Bolts

IMPORTANT: Read these instructions to remove the 2 shipping bolts (see Description for location). Situated on one either side of the rear panel, BOTH shipping bolts MUST be removed before use.

! Failure to do so may cause damage to your machine.

It is important the transit bolt and spacer (see pic) come out intact.

1. Use a crosshead screwdriver to remove the yellow plastic covers.

2. Unscrew the bolt using a 13 mm wrench.

3. STOP when 3 threads can be seen.

4. Hold, slide sideways and pull to remove.

5.For safety, replace both yellow plastic covers over the holes left by removing the two bolts.

Location

Where you install your machine will affect its performance:

!For your safety and to comply with electrical regulations, seek professional advice if you want to install your machine in a bath or shower room.

•Make sure that the electrical socket and water taps are easily accessible. You should switch off the machine's electrical and water supplies when you are not using it for extended periods.

•Make sure that you allow enough space for the machine. Select a space at least 23.6” (60 cm) wide, 23.6” (60 cm) deep and 33.4” (85 cm) high. Also leave enough space to open the door fully, so that you can load and unload it easily.

•Where possible, the machine should be positioned on a solid floor to minimise vibration.

Take care when you move the machine not to rip any floor coverings. The weight of the machine may cause indentations in some floor coverings.

Levelling

Your machine will be noisy if the two front feet are not adjusted so that the machine stands firm and level.

!The machine should be levelled from side to side and from front to back.

1.Move your machine into its final location.

-Take care not to trap or kink the hoses.

2.Turn one or both front feet counter-clockwise by hand until the feet cannot be turned any more.

When adjusting the feet, use a spirit level to check the machine stands level, from side to side and from front to back.

The spring on each foot will stop them coming loose.

!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 machine.

Did you know?

!Packaging materials are not children's toys.

•…the shipping bolts are fitted to ensure that your machine is undamaged during delivery.

•...both of the shipping bolts must be removed before using the machine, not doing so will lead to excessive vibration, movement of the machine and could eventually lead to internal damage.

•...the majority of problems with noisy machines are due to the shipping bolts not being removed, closely followed by the feet not being adjusted correctly to level the machine.

•...you will be charged for a service engineers visit if a problem with your machine is caused by incorrect installation or misuse.
