Positioning and levelling

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 coalburning stove, an in-

sulating panel 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°C. The water inlet hose and the drain hose must not be kinked.

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

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.

Water inlet

An inlet hose is supplied and can be found inside the machine drum.

This appliance must be connected to a cold water supply.

Do not use the hose from your previous machine to connect to the water supply. 1. Open the porthole and extract the inlet

hose.

2. Connect the hose with the angled con- nection to the machine.

Do not place the inlet hose downwards. Angle the hose to the left or right de- pending on the position of your water tap.
