POSITIONING THE MACHINE
The machine must stand firmly on the floor. Any instability
will negatively effect its performance.
To level the machine, loosen the plastic lock nuts on the ad-
justable feet using the spanner supplied. Rotate the feet until
the machine stands firm and level. Tighten the lock nuts
firmly. Never remove the lock nuts and feet from the machine.
Do not place the washing machine in an area where the
temperature could drop to 0°C. Residual water in the pipes
could freeze and damage the machine.
Ventilation openings should not be obstructed. Leave a space
of 20mm to the left and right of the machine and 100mm at the
back. Never place the machine on a carpet. This could prevent
air circulation and cause electrical components in the machine
to overheat.
Do not place or store anything on top of the machine.
CONNECTING TO THE COLD WATER SUPPLY
The water supply should deliver 8 to 80 litres per minute.
Sealing washers are supplied and these should be fitted at
either end of the inlet hose.
Secure the angled end of the inlet hose to the water inlet at the
rear of the machine and the straight end to a 3/4 inch BSP
cold water tap.
Tighten both connections. Open the tap and check for leaks.
We recommend that the tap be closed when the machine is not
in use.
CONNECTING TO THE DRAIN HOSE
Draining into a dedicated outlet pipe
The outlet pipe must have an inside diameter of at least
40 mm.
The end of the pipe must be positioned between 600 mm. and
1000 mm. above floor level.
Secure the hooked end of the drain hose into the outlet pipe.
Draining into a sink or bath
The drain hose may be hooked over the edge of a sink or bath
in such a way that the end can not be immersed in the
collected waste water.
The outlet end of the hose must be between 600 mm. and
1000 mm. above floor level.
Please note: The outlet hose must be kept free of kinks or
restrictions as these will hinder the operation of the machine.
