Levelling
Level the washing machine by raising or lowering
the feet. The feet may be tight to adjust as they
incorporate a self locking nut, but the machine
MUST be level.
Any necessary adjustment can be made with a
spanner. Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise
and displacement of the machine during operation.
Some vibration is inevitable, especially if mounted
on a wooden floor.
Sprung wooden floors are particularly susceptible
to vibration. For advice, consult a builder. If
possible, always place the machine on a solid floor.
Special conditions
If the floor is carpeted with a deep-pile carpet or
covered with crumbly or soft material, insert a rigid
support base under the feet to prevent noise,
vibration or displacement. The base should
protrude a few centimetres beyond the edges of the
machine.
Warning
The machine should NOT be placed
on deep pile carpeting.
Note
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed
it is easily accessible for the engineer in the event
of a breakdown.
All plumbing and electrical work required to install
this appliance must be carried out by competent
persons or qualified plumbers or electricians.

In the interest of the environment
Washing machines and dishwashers should be
connected to the FOUL drainage system, the water
will then be taken to a sewage works for treatment
before being discharged safely into a river.
It is essential that these appliances are not
connected to the surface water drainage system as
this water is discharged directly into a river or
stream and may cause pollution.
If you require any further advice please contact
your local authority drainage department.
