INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Location

IMPORTANT!

Install the machine on a solid and level floor surface ensuring it has at least 20mm 

clearance on each side. The washer must not be installed on any soft or textured floor 

coverings (eg carpet, rugs).

Note: This machine must not be installed and operated on a plinth.

Levelling the machine

It is IMPORTANT to level the machine to ensure good spin 
performance, and to minimise noise, vibrations and wear 
and tear on the washer. 

1

  Before positioning the machine in its final position, check 

that the machine is level, front to back and side to side.

2

  Adjust the product into its final position (we suggest a 

minimum clearance of 20mm each side).

3

  Use a spirit level to check that the machine is correctly 

level. If needed, pull the machine out. Loosen the lock nut 
using the spanner provided and wind the feet up or down 
to correctly level the machine.

4

  Using the spanner provided, tighten the lock nuts against 

the base of the machine to lock the feet in position.

Connecting to the water supply

Inlet hoses

IMPORTANT!

●

●

Use new hose sets provided with the washer to connect  

the washer to the water mains.

●

●

Old hose sets should not be re-used.

●

●

We recommend the inlet hoses are changed every 5 years. 

●

●

WARNING: Failure to do so may result in a flood and 

damage to property.

1

  Connect the straight ends of the inlet hoses to the taps. 

2 

Connect the elbow ends to the corresponding machine inlet valves. 
The hot valve is coloured orange to make this easier. 

3 

Tighten the inlet hose ends by hand until the hose seal just makes 
contact with the tap sealing face. Continue to tighten a further half-turn. 
Make sure there are no kinks in the hoses.

4

  Turn the taps on and check for leaks. Check for leaks again after 24 hours.

IMPORTANT!

The hot water temperature should not exceed 65°C and the cold water temperature 

not exceed 35°C. Temperatures above these may cause the machine to fault or 

cause damage to the machine.
