1. Choose a location...
Where you install the machine will affect its performance.
●
For your safety and to comply with electrical
regulations, seek professional advice if you want to
install your machine in a bath or shower room.
●
Make sure that the electrical socket and water taps are
easily accessible. You should switch off the machine’s
electrical and water supplies when you are not using it.
●
Make sure that you allow enough space for the
machine. Select a space at least 600mm wide, 600mm
deep and 850mm high. Also leave enough space to
open the door fully so you can load and unload it easily.
●
Where possible the machine should be positioned on a
solid level floor to minimise vibration.
●
Take care when you move the machine not to rip any
floor coverings. There are wheels on the bottom rear of
the machine, so tilting it backwards a little is the easiest
way to move it. The weight of the machine may cause
indentations in some floor coverings.
Follow these steps for trouble free installation:
