Levelling

Level the appliance using a spirit level.
Incorrect levelling may result in intense 

noise, vibrations and "wandering".

1.

Loosen the lock nuts using a 

wrench, by turning it in a clockwise 

direction.

2.

Check the alignment of the washing 

machine with a spirit level, and 

adjust it if necessary. Change the 

height by turning the appliance feet.

All four appliance feet must stand 

firmly on the ground.

3.

Tighten the lock nut against the 

housing.

In doing so, hold the foot tight and 

do not adjust its height.

The lock nuts on all four appliance 

feet must be screwed tightly against 

the housing.

Warning

Danger of death!

There is a risk of electric shock if you 

touch live components.

Never touch or hold the mains plug 

with wet hands.

Only pull out the mains cable by the 

plug and never by the cable, as this 

could damage it.

Never unplug the mains plug during 

operation.

Observe the following information and 

ensure that:

Notes

The mains voltage and voltage 

indicated on the washing machine 

(rating plate) are the same.

The connected load and fuse 

required are specified on the rating 

plate.

The mains plug fits the socket.

The cable cross-section is adequate.

The mains cable is only replaced by 

a qualified electrician (if this is 

necessary). Replacement mains 

cables are available from the after-

sales service.

No multiple plugs/couplings or 

extension cables are used.

If an earth-leakage circuit breaker is 

used, only a type which displays this 

symbol is used: 

z

.

Only this symbol guarantees 

compliance with the currently 

applicable regulations.

The mains plug can be accessed at 

all times.

The mains cable is not bent, 

squashed, modified, cut through, or 

in contact with heat sources.
