that the hoses are not squashed.

4 Set the machine upright and remove the two
remaining bolts from the back.
Pull out the three plastic spacers from the holes into
which the bolts were fitted.
Plug the open holes with the plugs supplied with the
instruction booklet.
Positioning
Install the machine on a flat hard floor.
Make sure that air circulation around the machine is
not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that the
machine does not touch the wall or other kitchen
units.
Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials
under the machine to compensate for any unevenness
in the floor.
Your new washing machine has been designed to be
permanently plumbed in to your home’s water supply
and drainage system. However, if this is not possible, it
may be connected to a suitable existing tap with the
drain hose discharging into a sink.
The appliance has an inlet hose, with female 3/4” BSP
thread connector. If this connection is not compatible
with the plumbing of the existing installation, a variety
of connectors are available from good hardware stores
and plumbers merchants to suit most domestic
plumbing. Any alteration to your existing plumbing
must be carried out by a competent person, or
qualified plumber.
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.
