Unpacking the machine
If the machine is damaged
If the machine has been damaged during transportation,
you should immediately notify the company responsible
for delivering it.
Check that the washing machine is undamaged. If you
discover any damage, faults or that anything is missing, you
should notify the seller immediately.
Never leave packaging material in a place
where children may play with it.
When lifting the machine
Take care when lifting the machine. Incorrect methods of
lifting can cause physical injuries, and also increase the
risk of damage to the machine. Open the door and take
hold of it inside the top of the door opening. You can also
grasp the rear overhang of the machine top to lift this
machine.
Never lift the machine by gripping its control
panel, the door itself, or its detergent drawer
(Fig. 1).
Transit locking bolts
When supplied the washing machine is packed using a
number of locking devices/packing pieces to prevent drum
and motor from damage in transit. These must all be
removed before the washing machine is installed.
1. Spread some of the polystyrene packaging
materials on the floor behind the machine and
then lay the machine carefully rearside down
on them.
Make sure that no hoses are crushed in the
process (Fig. 2).
2. Remove the polystyrene base and the support
bar which the machine rests on.
3. Return the machine to it’s normal upright position
and remove the three bolts and their spacers on
it’s rear (Fig. 3).
4. The three holes must then be plugged with the
plastic plugs supplied, which can be found in a
plastic bag inside the drum (Fig. 4).
