Remove the Shipping Bolts
IMPORTANT:
Read these instructions to remove
the 4 shipping bolts (see
Description for location). Situated
on one either side of the rear
panel, All shipping bolts MUST
be removed before use.
! Failure to do so may cause
damage to your machine.
It is important the transit bolt and
spacer (see pic) come out intact.
1. Unscrew the bolt using a 13
mm wrench.
2.
STOP when 3 threads can be
seen.
3. Hold, slide sideways and pull to
remove.
4. For safety, close the
holes left by removing the bolts.
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 23.6 (60 cm) wide,
23.6 (60 cm) deep and 33.4 (85 cm) 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.
Levelling
Your machine will be noisy if the two front feet are not
adjusted so that the machine stands firm and level.
! The machine should be levelled from side to side and
from front to back.
1. Move your machine into its final location.
- Take care not to trap or kink the hoses.
2. Turn one or both front feet counter-clockwise by hand
until the feet cannot be turned any more.
When adjusting the feet, use a spirit level to check the
machine stands level, from side to side and from front to
back.
If the floor is not perfectly level,
compensate for any unevenness
by tightening or loosening the
adjustable front feet (see figure);
the angle of inclination, measured
according to the worktop, must not
exceed 2°.
The spring on each foot will stop
them coming loose.
! If it is placed on a fitted or loose carpet, adjust the feet in
such a way as to allow enough room for ventilation beneath
the machine.
Did you know?
the shipping bolts are fitted to ensure that your machine is undamaged during delivery.
...both of the shipping bolts must be removed before using the machine, not doing so will lead to
excessive vibration, movement of the machine and could eventually lead to internal damage.
...the majority of problems with noisy machines are due to the shipping bolts not being removed,
closely followed by the feet not being adjusted correctly to level the machine.
...you will be charged for a service engineers visit if a problem with your machine is caused by
incorrect installation or misuse.

not children's toys.
