removing the transit bolts

Four transit bolts keep the interior of the machine in place while it’s being moved.
They need to be removed before installation. Use a spanner (not supplied) and follow the 

instructions detailed below.

To remove the transit bolts:

1.  Use a spanner to loosen the four bolts. They are located at the rear of the machine.
2.  Pull the bolts out horizontally. Make sure the entire bolt is removed.
3.  Push the four bolt covers (included with your accessories) into the respective bolt holes.

moving the washer dryer from one location to another

Before you move the machine:
•  Shut off the tap and run the machine to drain the water. Drain any remaining water from the 

pump hose.

•  Disconnect the mains cable.
•  Attach the transit bolts.

You’ll need the transit bolts again if you move the machine, so make sure you keep 

them in a safe place.

Make sure to fix the transit bolts prior to moving the machine.
