Unpacking
All transit bolts and packing must be removed
before using the appliance.
You are advised to keep all transit devices so that they
can be refitted if the machine ever has to be transported
again.
1. Using a spanner, unscrew and remove the two rear
bottom screws. Slide out the two plastic pins. Lay
the machine on its back, taking care not to squash
the hoses. This can be avoided by placing one of the
corner packing pieces between the machine and the
floor.
2. Remove the polystyrene block from the bottom of
the machine and release the two plastic bags.
3. Very carefully slide out the left polythene bag,
removing it towards the right and then downwards.
4. Very carefully slide out the right polythene bag,
removing it towards the left and then upwards.

rear screw. Slide out the relevant pin.
6. Plug all the holes with the plugs which you will find
in the envelope containing 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 suitable existing taps with the drain
hose discharging into a sink.
The appliance has two inlet hoses, hot and cold, with
female 3/4” BSP thread connectors. 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.
