before using the appliance.
Using a spanner unscrew and remove the two rear
bottom screws. Slide out the two plastic pins.
Lay the machine gently on its back, making sure that the
hoses are not squashed.
Remove the polystyrene block from the bottom of the
machine and release the two plastic bags.
Very carefully slide out the left polythene bag, removing
it towards the right and then downwards.
Repeat the operation for the right polythene bag,
removing it towards the left and then upwards.
Remove the polystyrene base. Set the machine upright

Important !
You are advised to keep all the packaging for re-use
in case the machine is to be transported again. In
case of moving the same precautions as per paragraph
“The dangers of freezing” must be taken i.e. the
residual water in the hoses must be pumped out.
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 tap with the drain
hose discharging into a sink.
The appliance has one 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.
Water inlet
Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4” thread.
Do not use previously used hoses for water connection.
