machine and the wall of, at least, 10 cm.
Place the washing machine on a leveled
and firm surface to prevent noise and
vibration.
Adjust the adjustable legs to level it. Never
place the washing machine close to water.
Never place the washing machine in rooms with
vapors or exposed to the rain.
The humidity may destroy the electrical isolation
and lead to risk of electric shock.
Avoid direct sunlight or heaters.
As direct heat may damage the plastic and
electric parts, never place the washing machine
close to ovens, furnaces, etc. Never place it
under direct sunlight.
