Unpacking
All transit bolts and packing must be removed
before using the appliance.
• Using a spanner, unscrew and remove the rear
right-hand bolt and lay the machine on its back,
taking care not to squash the hoses. This can be
avoided by placing one of the corner packing
pieces between the machine and the floor.
• Remove the polystyrene base and take off the
bottom panel by unscrewing the central screw.
• Carefully slide out the right polythene bag.
• Repeat the operation for the left and central
polythene bags.
• Re-fit the bottom panel using the 4 screws supplied
with the door hinges (in the plastic bag) and the
previously removed screw.

• Set the machine upright and remove the two
remaining bolts from the back.
• Pull out the three plastic spacers from the holes
into which the bolts were fitted.
• Plug the open holes with the plugs which you will
find in the plastic bag containing the instruction
booklet.
You are advised to keep all transit devices so that
they can be refitted if the machine ever has to be
transported again.
Positioning
Install the machine on a flat hard floor.
Make sure that air circulation around the machine is
not impeded by carpets, rugs etc.
• Before placing it on small tiles, apply a rubber
coating.
• Never try to correct any unevenness in the floor by
putting pieces of wood, cardboard or similar
materials under the machine.
• If it is impossible to avoid positioning the machine
next to a gas cooker or coal-burning stove, an
insulating panel (85x57 cm) covered with
aluminium foil on the side facing the cooker or
stove, must be inserted between the two
appliances;
• The machine must not be installed in rooms where
the temperature can drop below 0.
• The water inlet hose and the drain hose must not
be kinked.
• Please ensure that when the appliance is installed,
it is easily accessible for the engineer in the event
of a breakdown.
