4 Installation
Appropriate installation location
Place the machine on a rigid floor that has
sufficient load carrying capacity.
Choose a well ventilated dry location out
of direct sunlight.
Do not place the machine on the power
cable.
Do not install the machine at places where
the temperature may fall below 0ºC.
Place the machine at least 10 mm away
from the edges of other furniture.
Hot and cold water taps should be located
within 1 metre of the inlet valves.
Adjust the adjustable leg of the machine if
necessary to ensure that the machine is
level. The maximum permissible inclination
of the ground surface is 2 degrees. A
machine that is not levelled and is unstable
will vibrate and generate excessive noise.
Connecting the water supply
1. Check that the sealing washers are
correctly seated.
2. Attach the curved end of the water supply
hose to the inlet valve of the machine,
tighten the coupling nuts by hand. Never
use a tool when tightening the nuts.
3. Attach the straight end of the hose to the
tap. Tighten the coupling nuts by hand.
4. Open the taps fully after completing the
hose connection and check for water
leaks. If there are any leaks, turn off the
tap and remove the nut. Retighten the nut
carefully after checking the seal. To
prevent water leakages and damages
caused by them, keep the taps closed
when the machine is not in use.

water and waste water installations of
the machine are the customer's
responsibility.
