Preparing the location where the washing machine is to
be installed
• The surface on which the washing machine is to
be installed must be clean and dry and free from
floor polish residue and other greasy coatings so
that the appliance does not slip. Do not use lubri-
cants to assist you in sliding the appliance.
• Installing the appliance on deep pile carpeting or
floor coverings with a soft foam backing is not
recommended as the stability of the appliance
cannot be guaranteed as a result.
• If the surface on which the appliance is to be
installed is covered with small tiles, place com-
mercially available small rubber mats under the
stands.
• Never place wood, cardboard or similar materials
to compensate for small unevennesses in the
floor; always adjust the screw feet instead.
• If installing the washing machine right next to a
gas or coal cooker is unavoidable due to space
restrictions: Insert a heat-insulating plate (85 x 57
cm) between the range and the washing machine;
the side of the plate that is facing the range is to
be covered with aluminium foil.
• The washing machine must not be installed in a
room which is at risk of frosting up. Frost damage
may result.
• The water inlet and outlet hose must not be
kinked or crushed.
