a solid floor and well leveled due to
the higher spin speeds available. If

stability of the floor surface where it
is installed.

q Soft floor surfaces, such as
carpets or surfaces with foam
backing, are not suitable. If
possible, place the washing
machine in a corner of the room.
q Screw a water resistant wooden
board (at least 3/4" thick) to the
floor.
q Secure the feet of the washing
machine with holding brackets.
Order the holding brackets (set)
from Bosch Customer Service
(WMZ 2200).

(bolt, spring, washer and bushings)
by reaching through the open
washing machine door and pulling
the drum slightly forward to loosen,
then pull out from the back.
q If the bushings do not come out
when removing the screws, place
screws back into the bushings and
carefully try again. It is important to
do this with the screws, otherwise
the bushings will not come out
properly.

future transportation of the appliance
(such as when moving out).
