Installation-Site Preparation
 The installation surface must be clean, dry and level.
 Do not install on deep pile carpet.
 If the appliance is installed next to heat source (e. g. cooking appli-
ance), a heat insulating pad (85 x 57 cm) must be placed between the
washing machine and the heat source.
 Do not install the appliance in locations where the temperature may
fall below freezing.
 Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is easily accessi-
ble for the engineer in the event of a breakdown.
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.
