Positioning and levelling
Install the machine on a flat hard floor.
Make sure that air circulation around the ma-
chine is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc.
Before placing it on small tiles, apply a rub-
ber 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 ma-
chine next to a gas cooker or coalburning
stove, an insulating panel covered with alu-
minium foil on the side facing the cooker or
stove, must be inserted between the two ap-
pliances.
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 in-
stalled, it is easily accessible for the engi-
neer 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.
