Unpacking

All transit bolts and packing must be

removed

before using the appliance.

You are advised to keep all transit devices so that
they can be refitted if the machine ever has to be
transported again.

Using a spanner unscrew and remove the two rear
bottom screws. Slide out the two plastic pins.

Lay the machine gently on its back, making sure
that the hoses are not squashed.

Remove the polystyrene block from the bottom of
the machine and release the two plastic bags.
Very carefully slide out the left polythene bag,
removing it towards the right and then downwards.

Repeat the operation for the right polythene bag,
removing it towards the left and then upwards.

Positioning

Install the machine on a flat hard floor.
Make sure that air circulation around the machine is
not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that the
machine does not touch the wall or other kitchen
units.
Carefully level by screwing the adjustable feet in or
out. Never place cardboard, wood or similar
materials under the machine to compensate for any
unevenness in the floor.

Water inlet

Connect the water inlet hose to a tap with a 3/4"
thread.

Do not use already employed hoses for water
connections.

The other end of the inlet hose which connects to
the machine can be turned in any direction. Simply
loosen the fitting, rotate the hose and retighten the
fitting, making sure there are no water leaks
