INSTALLATION
Transit Supports Removal
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO USE THE MACHINE, YOU MUST FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE
DESCRIBED BELOW.
The inside of the appliance is supported, for transportation, by four screws on the back panel.
Before using the appliance these MUST be removed.
NOTE:
You may need a second person to help you.
WARNING: The appliance must not be plugged into the mains supply until all installation
instructions have been completed.
Choose a Location
The choice of location for the appliance will influence its performance.
Position where possible on a solid floor as vibration may occur with a wooden floor.
Take care with vinyl floor coverings. The weight of the appliance may cause indentations in some vinyl
floor coverings. You should not install your appliance on a carpeted floor, but if this is unavoidable,
ensure that air can circulate around its base.
If locating next to another appliance or an item of furniture, leave space between them to allow air to
circulate.
For your safety and to comply with IEE regulations, you should not install your appliance in a bath or
shower room. Seek professional advice if you wish to do so.
Ensure sufficient space is allowed for the appliance.
Ensure the electrical socket and water taps are easily accessible and that the water supply can be
isolated if necessary.
Risk of freezing:
Do not position the appliance in rooms exposed to frost. Frozen pipes may burst under pressure.
1.
Remove the 4 screws, along with the
spacers together with the washers intact,
indicated by arrows.
2.
You must now cover the holes with the four
plastic covers provided.
Retain the transit screws, spacers and
washers. Should you move house then these
should be replaced to support the inside of
the appliance to prevent damage when in
transit.
IMPORTANT:
Use the round cap supplied to cover the 5
holes which housed the mains plug, situated
in the right hand part of the lower back of the
appliance.
