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. 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 and stable.
Any necessary adjustment can be made with a
spanner.
Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and
displacement of the machine during operation.
Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials
under the machine to compensate for any
unevenness in the floor.
If necessary, check the
setting with a spirit
level.
Water inlet
Do not use the hose from your previous
machine to connect to the water supply.
