Where to install

Important! The washing machine must not be operated in a room
where there is a danger of frost. There is a risk of frost damage or ad-
verse effect on the perfomance of the machine. Frost damage is not
covered under the warranty.
• The surface on which the appliance is to be installed must be firm

and level. Do not install the appliance on carpeted floors or soft floor
coverings.

• The surface on which the appliance is to be installed must be clean

and dry and free from grease, so that the appliance does not slide.

• If the location in which the appliance is to be installed is fitted with

small-format tiles, put a rubber mat (available in the shops) under
the appliance.

If the appliance is to stand on a floor which moves, e.g. a suspend-
ed wooden floor:
Place the appliance in an area as close as possible to a corner of the
room.

1. Screw a water-resistant wooden board (at least 15 mm thick) onto at

least 2 of the floor joists.

Making the appliance level

The four feet of the appliance are
pre-adjusted.
Large degrees of unevenness can be
compensated for by adjusting the
four feet of the appliance.
Use the special spanner supplied to
do this.
Important: Do not use pieces of
wood, cardboard or such like to level
out small degrees of unevenness in
the floor. Adjust the adjustable feet
instead.
