INSTALLATION
Note:
The washing machine is equipped with power cord and plug and needs sewage and tap water
connection. Make sure before installation that the wall outlet is at the desired place of installation.
Consider the dimension (chapter
Technical data
) of the product for placing and installation.
Caution!
•
Before initial operation the transport restraints must be removed from the backside of the unit.
Operating the washing machine with mounted transport restraints leads to serious damages.
•
Keep the transport restraints for later use. Never transport the device without correctly mounted
transport restraints!

Place the washing machine on an even, horizontal and steady surface. For levelling the feet
are adjustable and can be screwed in or out.
•
Unscrew the lock nuts with a open-end wrench (16 mm).
•
Turn the feet to the right to screw them in and to the left to unscrew them.
•
Use a spirit level to check whether the appliance is leveled. If the appliance is not standing
horizontally or is tilting the feet must be adjusted again.
•
If the unit is leveled and does not tilt, tighten the nuts with the open-end wrench.

The washing machine must be connected to a drain.
•
The drain hose is already fixed to the sewage connection. Pull the hose out of the clamps
and unwind it.
•
Connect the other end to the drain pipe (option A or B). Observe the max. height of the
hose end.
Note:
Suitable hose holders are available as optional accessories.

Connect the water inlet to the water system (3/4 “) using the supplied hose and make sure
that everything is connected correctly and firmly. The water pressure must be between
0.05 MPa and 1 MPa. A pressure reducing valve must be used if the water pressure is exceeds
1 MPa.
Note:
•
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, allow
a certain amount of water to drain until you are sure that the water is clear and free of
foreign objects.
•
If this point is not observed, there is a risk that the water inlet will become clogged and the
unit will be damaged.
