Installing the Washing Machine
Installation requirements
Power supply
◆ To avoid the unnecessary risk of fire, electric shock or personal injury, all electrical circuit and
grounding must be set as per the national electrical standard.
◆ Do not overload the wall power socket.
◆ Ensure that your power supply unit can meet the normal load requirements of the washing machine.
◆ The power cord has to be positioned so that it will not be stepped on, pressed or clamped by the
article on or next to it. Pay special attention to the power cord of plug, socket and power cord contact
of the washing machine.
◆ Do not use an extension cord or double adapter.
◆ Do not modify the provided plug. If it does not fit the outlet, call a qualified electrician to install a
proper outlet.
Water supply
◆ The working water pressure of the washing machine is 0.05MPa~0.8MPa. When the water
pressure is below 0.05MPa,the water supply valve may not work normally,or the time of water
supply is longer than that of program control,and the display screen shows "SF".
◆ The water supply faucet must be less than 122cm away from the rear of the washing machine so
that the water supply hose can be easily connected to the washing machine and the water faucet.
◆ The washing machine shall be close to the water faucet.
◆ Turn off the water faucet when the washing machine is not used.
◆ Check water leakage conditions of the internal loop regularly.
◆ Before using the washing machine, first check all connections of the water supply valve and
water faucet to prevent water leakage.
Installation Location
◆ Do not position the washing machine on a platform or a structure with weak support.
◆ To make the most of the washing machine, position it on a hard, flat and clean surface without
any water or oil.
◆ Avoid direct sunlight, with adequate ventilation.
◆ Room temperature shall not fall below 0 ˚C.
◆ Avoid positioning the washing machine near heat sources such as coal or gas stove.
◆ Do not correct any unevenness in the floor by placing pieces of wood or other material under the
washing machine.
◆ Clearance of 25mm is required for top, right, and left side. For rear, 51mm is required.
Ambient temperature
The washing machine cannot be positioned in a place where water freezes easily, because some
water may be left in the water valve, drainage pump and water hose. Freeze in the pipeline may
cause damage to the belt, drainage pump and other parts.
The washing machine should be positioned in the environment with ambient temperature of 0
℃~40℃ and relative air humidity below 95% (when the temperature is 25℃), thus the washing
machine can be used in a convenient and safe way.
