Installation

Removing the transit bolts
• Before installing the washing machine, you must remove the transit bolts from the
back of the housing and cover the holes with the transit hole caps provided.
• The 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.
• Dismantle the four transit bolts from the
back of the washing machine using an
appropriate tool (Fig. 2).
• Keep the bolts in a safe place; you will
need them again when moving the
machine, if you move house, for example.
• Cover the holes with the supplied transit
hole caps.
Selecting the location
Before installing the appliance, make sure the
location meets the following requirements:
• A concrete floor is the most suitable
installation surface for a washing machine,
being far less prone to vibration during the
spin cycle than wooden floorboards or a
carpeted surface.
• The machine must be level and securely
positioned. It must be protected from direct
sunlight, water and weather.
• The distance between the machine and wall
must be more than 10cm (Fig. 3).
• To avoid vibrations during spinning, the machine
should not be installed on soft floor coverings.
If the appliance must be placed on a carpeted
surface, place a plastic mat underneath and
ensure any ventilation openings in the base are
not obstructed.
• Stability is important to prevent the washing machine from moving during operation.
• Make sure that the machine does not stand on the power cord.
