4. Do not install your machine on a surface (such as carpet) that would prevent ventilation 
at the base. To ensure silent and vibration-free operation of your machine, install it on a 
firm surface. You can level your machine using the adjustable feet, loosen the plastic 
locking nut. To increase the height of the machine, turn the feet clockwise. To decrease 
the height of the machine, turn the feet anticlockwise. Once the machine is level, tighten 
the locking nuts by turning them clockwise.

Note: 

Never insert cardboard, wood or other similar materials under the machine to level it. 
When cleaning the ground on which the machine is located, take care not to disturb 
the level of the machine. 

The machine should not sway and all the adjustable feet should sit/touch the floor.

Installation

Location of the Washing Machine

Check location where the washer will be installed. Make sure you have everything
necessary for correct installation.

Do not place or store your washer below 0

°

C (32

°

F) to avoid any damage from freezing.

Do not place or store laundry products on top of washer at any times.

Install the washer on a horizontal solid floor, flat, non-slippery and tough floor. Do not 
install onto a carpet.

If the washer is installed on an unsuitable floor, it could make considerable noise, vibrate 
severely and cause a malfunction. If the washer is not level, adjust the leg up or down for 
horizontal installation.

Never put cardboard, wood or other materials under your machine to try and stabilise 
the unit.

Ventilation openings must not be obstructed.

Leave a space (right & left : 2cm, rear : 10cm).

In case of built-in installation, the distance 

between top of the washer and bottom of 

upper plate should be at least 3mm.
