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 60cm wide, 60cm deep and 85cm 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.
