Removing the transport bolts
WARNING!
• Before installing the washing machine, you must remove the transport bolts from
the back of the housing and cover the holes with the transport hole plugs provided.
• The four bolts hold the drum in place during transport but they must be
removed before use so the drum can move during the wash and spin cycles.
Leaving the bolts installed will result in strong shock and noise during use,
malfunction and serious damage to the machine.
Selecting the location
WARNING!
• Stability is important to prevent the washing machine from moving during operation.
• Make sure that the machine does not stand on the power cord.
Before installing the appliance, make sure the location meets the following requirements:
• Dismantle the four bolts from the back of the washing
machine using the supplied wrench (Fig. 2).
• Keep the bolts in a safe place; you will need them
again when moving the machine, if you move house.
(When required, the transport bolts must be reinstalled
into the machine by an authorised service agent; call
our after sales support centre for advice.)
• Cover the holes with the supplied transport hole plugs.
• The surface is rigid, dry and level – if it is not level,
please adjust the levelling legs (see page 12).
• The position is protected from direct sunlight, water
and weather.
• There is sufficient ventilation.
• There is 100mm space between any walls and the
furthest protruding part of the machine (Fig. 3).
• The room temperature is above 0
°
C.
• The position is at least 200mm from heat sources.
• The machine will not stand on the power cord.
• The area is not carpeted (if this cannot be avoided, place a plastic mat underneath
the machine and make sure any ventilation openings in the base are not obstructed).
Do
NOT
install the appliance:
• Behind a lockable or sliding door, or a door with a hinge on the opposite side of the
machine, in such a way that a full opening of the appliance door is restricted.
• In a tight-fitting cabinet.
