Installation
Before installing the machine, ensure that the mains plug and water supply valves are
easily accessible from your chosen machine location.
Make sure there is enough space for the machine. Select a space at least 600mm wide
and 850mm high. Also leave enough space to open the door fully so you can load
and unload it easily.
Keep the area underneath and around the machine free of combustible materials such
as lint, paper, rags, chemicals etc.
All machines are tested with water prior to leaving the factory, so a small amount of
water may be present in the drum and the drain hose.
Flooding may occur if any part of the installation process is not completed correctly.
Electricity Supply
Washing machines are supplied to operate at a voltage of 230-240V, 50 Hz single
phase. Please check that the supply circuit is rated to at least 13A.
The plug is already equipped with a 13A fuse, which is BS 1362 ASTA approved. Any

use the plug until it is replaced.
Electricity can be extremely dangerous. Please take care when connecting your
machine to the electricity supply.
