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

Your new washer-dryer 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.

Repeat the operation for the right polythene bag, removing it towards the left and then upwards.

P1127

Remove the polystyrene base.

Set the machine upright and unscrew the remaining rear screw. Slide out the relevant pin.

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.

Installation on a Suspended Floor

Suspended wooden floors are particularly susceptible to vibration. To help prevent vibration we recommend you place a waterproof wood panel, at least 15 mm thick under the appliance, secured to at least 2 floor beams with screws. If possible install the appliance in one of the corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.
