Where to install
Important! The washing machine must not be operated in a room
where there is a danger of frost. There is a risk of frost damage or ad-
verse effect on the perfomance of the machine. Frost damage is not
covered under the warranty.
• The surface on which the appliance is to be installed must be firm
and level. Do not install the appliance on carpeted floors or soft floor
coverings.
• The surface on which the appliance is to be installed must be clean
and dry and free from grease, so that the appliance does not slide.
• If the location in which the appliance is to be installed is fitted with
small-format tiles, put a rubber mat (available in the shops) under
the appliance.
If the appliance is to stand on a
base:
In order for the appliance to be se-
cure on the base, fixing plates*)
must be mounted, into which the
appliance is inserted.
If the appliance is to stand on a floor which moves, e.g. a suspend-
ed wooden floor:
Place the appliance in an area as close as possible to a corner of the
room.
Screw a water-resistant wooden board (at least 15 mm thick) onto at
least 2 of the floor joists.
