Installation

Electrical supply and grounding

WARNING

AC 220 - 240 V / 50 Hz fuse or circuit breaker is required.

Use an individual branch circuit specific to the washing machine.

Do NOT use an extension cord.

Use only the power cord that comes with the washing machine.

Do NOT connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing, gas lines, or hot water pipes.

Levelling

To prevent tumbling or noise, install the washing machine on a solid, flat floor without a platform or bricks.

Keep the washing machine at 10 cm from each adjacent wall.

Water supply

Make sure water taps are easily accessible.

Turn off the taps when the washing machine is not in use.

Check for any leaks at the water hose fittings on a regular basis.

Drain

Make sure the drain hose is not clogged.

We recommend a standpipe in height of 90-100 cm. The drain hose must be connected through the hose clip to the standpipe, and the standpipe must fully cover the drain hose.

The standpipe specifications mentioned here are only applicable to pump-type models.
