Recommendations regarding the
construction and fitting of a base
when the installation requires an
integrated appliance to be raised
Where the appliance has been raised by mounting onto
a wooden base provided by the installer. The material
used to construct the base should have a non slip
surface, be water repellent and if possible be one solid
piece.
If it is not possible to use one solid piece, due to the
additional height required, ensure that any additional
strips of timber are glued and screwed to the underside
of the base (see Fig. F).
Drill four fixing holes see Fig. G
Position the base into the recess with its front edge as
far forward as the adjoining plinth line will allow.
The
reason for placing the base in this position is to allow
a small strip of beading to be fitted in front of the
appliance feet.

Fix the base firmly to the floor using four appropriate
countersunk screws (see Fig. H).
With the appliance installed adjust all four feet ensuring
the machine is stable, and a clearance of approximately
5 mm is left between the top of the machine and the
underside of the worktop.
A final check for stability should be carried out with the
machine on spin with a load, this will identify the need
for any further fine adjustment to the feet.
A strip of beading approximately 605 mm W, x 5 mm
H, x 25 mm D must be screwed down into the base
directly in front of the machine’s feet, this will provide
additional security.
If required an additional door magnet, part number
1242394-00/3 and disc, part number 1242393-00/5 are
available from spare parts.
