Unpacking

All transit bolts and packing must be removed before using the appliance.

Remove the polystyrene block from the bottom of the machine.

Carefully slide out the right polythene bag (1).

Repeat the operation for the left polythene bag (2).

Positioning

Install the machine on a flat hard floor.

Make sure that air circulation around the machine is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that the machine does not touch the wall or other kitchen units.

Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials under the machine to compensate for any unevenness in the floor.

Your new machine has been designed to be permanently plumbed in to your home’s water supply and drainage system. However, if this is not possible, it may be connected to suitable existing taps with the drain hose discharging into a sink.

The appliance has two inlet hoses, hot and cold, with female 3/4” BSP thread connectors. If this connection is not compatible with the plumbing of the existing installation, a variety of connectors are available from good hardware stores and plumbers merchants to suit most domestic plumbing. Any alteration to your existing plumbing must be carried out by a competent person, or qualified plumber.
