Positioning and levelling

Install the machine on a flat hard floor.

Make sure that air circulation around the machine is
not impeded by carpets, rugs etc.

Before placing it on small tiles, apply a rubber
coating.

Never try to correct any unevenness in the floor by
putting pieces of wood, cardboard or similar
materials under the machine.

If it is impossible to avoid positioning the machine next to a gas cooker or coal-
burning stove, an insulating panel covered with aluminium foil on the side facing
the cooker or stove, must be inserted between the two appliances.

The machine must not be installed in rooms where the temperature can drop
below 0. The water inlet hose and the drain hose must not be kinked.

Please ensure that when the appliance is installed, it is easily accessible for the
engineer in the event of a breakdown.

Carefully level by screwing the adjustable feet in or out.

Automatic foot: The rear foot on the left-hand side of your washing machine is
built as a shock absorbing foot, which is why the appliance gives in the back left-
hand corner if put under load. The automatic foot guarantees that the appliance
does not move even at high spin speeds. Basically the automatic foot does not
need to be set.

Water inlet

An inlet hose is supplied and can be found inside the machine drum.

Do not use the hose from your previous machine to connect to the
water supply.
This appliance must be connected to a cold water supply.

1. Open the porthole and extract the inlet hose.

2. Connect the hose with the angled connection to

the machine.

Do not place the inlet hose downwards. Angle
the hose to the left or right depending on the
position of your water tap.
