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 coalburning stove, an in-
sulating 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°C.
The water inlet hose and the drain hose must not be kinked.
