Warning
Risk of scalding!
When you are washing at high
temperatures, there is a risk of scalding
if you come into contact with hot water
(e.g. when draining hot water into a
washbasin).
Do not reach into the hot water.
Caution!
Water damage
If the drain hose slips out of the
washbasin or the connection point
during draining due to high water
pressure, any escaping water may
cause water damage.
Secure the drain hose so that it cannot
slip out.
Caution!
Damage to the appliance/fabrics
If the end of the drain hose is immersed
in the drained water, water may be
sucked back into the appliance and
may damage the appliance/fabrics.
Make sure that:
■
The plug does not block drainage
from the washbasin.
■
The end of the drain hose is not
immersed in the drained water.
■
The water drains away quickly
enough.
Note:
Do not kink the water drain hose
or put strain on it lengthways.
Connection
■
Drainage into a washbasin
■
Drainage into a siphon
The connection point must be
secured using a hose clamp with a
diameter of 24 - 40 mm (available
from specialist dealers).
■
Drainage into a plastic pipe with
rubber bushing or into a drainage
pit
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.
