•

Keep the packaging materials (plastic bags,

polystyrene parts, etc.) out of reach of children,

•

If the appliance was exposed to the cold prior to

delivery, keep it at room temperature for a few

3.Install the washing machine

surface. In the case of a yielding sub-floor, the

Adjust the feet to ensure that the machine is

stable and level on the floor (see “Installation”/

”Adjust the feet”).

•

In case of wooden or so-called “floating floors”

(for instance certain parquet or laminate floors),

place the appliance on a 70 x 70 cm sheet of

plywood at least 3 cm in thickness. The plywood

sheet must be screwed to the floor.

•

Make sure that the ventilation openings in the

base of your washing machine (if available on

your washer) are not obstructed by a carpet or

other material.

4.Water inlet

with the regulations of your local water company

(see “Installation”/”Connect the water supply

hose(s) (A or B, depending on the model)” and

not be used and should be discarded.

5.Drain hose

•

Connect the drain hose to the ventilated siphon or

hook it over the edge of a sink by means of the “U”

bend and secure it against falling down (see

“Installation”/“Connect the water drain hose”).

6.Electrical connections

•

Electrical connections must be carried out by a

qualified electrician in compliance with the

manufacturer's instructions and local safety

regulations.

•

Voltage information, power consumption and

electrical fusing data are supplied on the front

panel behind the door frame.

•

The appliance must be connected to the mains

exclusively by means of a socket with an earth

connection in accordance with established

regulations. The appliance must be earthed by

law. The manufacturer declines all liability for

possible damage to property or injury to persons

or pets deriving from failure to observe the a/m

directions.

•

•

Before any maintenance on the washing

machine disconnect the power plug or switch off

the power supply.
