Where to install

Important! The washing machine must not be operated in a room where there is a danger of frost. There is a risk of frost damage or adverse effect on the perfomance of the machine. Frost damage is not covered under the warranty.

•The surface on which the appliance is to be installed must be firm and level. Do not install the appliance on carpeted floors or soft floor coverings.

•The surface on which the appliance is to be installed must be clean and dry and free from grease, so that the appliance does not slide.

•If the location in which the appliance is to be installed is fitted with small-format tiles, put a rubber mat (available in the shops) under the appliance.

If the appliance is to stand on a floor which moves, e.g. a suspended wooden floor:

Place the appliance in an area as close as possible to a corner of the room.

1.Screw a water-resistant wooden board (at least 15 mm thick) onto at least 2 of the floor joists.

Making the appliance level

The four feet of the appliance are pre-adjusted.

Large degrees of unevenness can be compensated for by adjusting the four feet of the appliance.

Use the special spanner supplied to do this.

Important: Do not use pieces of wood, cardboard or such like to level out small degrees of unevenness in the floor. Adjust the adjustable feet instead.
