I NSTALLATION
Remove the transport bolts
Before using this washing machine, the transport bolts must be removed from the backside of the
machine. Loosen all bolts with spanner and then remove them and keep the transport bolts properly
for future use/transport. Plug the holes with the transit bolts caps supplied.
- Once unscrewed the screws pull out the locking screws including a bushing and spacer as shown
in Figure 1-3.
- Close up the holes with the supplied caps as shown in Figure 4.
Installation – place requirements -
- The device must be installed in a clean place, where dirty does not build up.
- A concrete floor is the most suitable installation surface for a washing machine, being far less
prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floorboards or a carpeted surface.
- The machine must be level and securely positioned.
- Do not expose the device to direct sunlight.
- Do not place near heaters, next to a stove or any other heat sources.
- Avoid installation at locations with high humidity (e.g. outdoors), as metal parts would be suscepti-
ble to corrosion under such circumstances.
- Do not install in rooms where the temperature could drop below freezing. Do not expose the device
any weather.
- Do not place the device near volatile or combustible materials (e.g. gas, fuel, alcohol, paint, etc.).
- Only place on a steady and safe surface in order to reduce vibration and noise to a minimum.
- If the ground is evidently uneven (the maximum allowed tilt angle is 2°), it must be balanced; oth-
erwise the unit is wrong, vibrates or moves.
- If the floor is uneven, adjust the adjustable feet.
- Good ventilation around the unit is required so the heat can be derived correctly. The distance be-
tween the machine and wall must be more than 10 cm.
- The mains plug must be freely accessible.
WARNING: Should the bolts
aren’t removed; there could be
serious damages during operation.
