INSTALLATION
Unpacking
1.
Unpack the washing machine and check whether the it has been damaged during transport.
If this is the case, do not install it and contact the retailer.
2.
Remove the four (on Polish built models) protective screws (transit bolts) and the rubber washer
with the respective spacer, situated on the rear of the appliance (see Figures below).
3.
Fit the blanking plugs provided into the holes vacated by the bolts.
4.
Use the plug provided to seal the holes where the mains plug was housed (if supplied), situated
on the lower right hand side on the rear of the appliance.
5.
Keep all the removed parts as they will be required again if the washing machine needs to be
moved to another location.
Levelling
1.
Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy floor, without resting it up against walls, cabinets etc.
2.
Compensate for any unevenness by tightening or loosening the adjustable front feet. The angle of
inclination, measured according to the worktop must not exceed 2°.
Levelling the appliance correctly will provide it with stability and avoid vibrations, noise and shifting
during operation. If it is placed on a fitted or loose carpet, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow
enough room for ventilation underneath the appliance.
