Installation - Toshiba AW-1170SM Owner's Manual

Install your washing machine in a level, stable place.
•
It is dangerous to place the washing machine in an
unstable location since it may move during vibration.
•
It will increase the sound produced by the machine when
it vibrates during use.
When you move washing machine, hold the handles
on the sides.
There are moving parts, electrical parts and steel
plates which may cause electrical shock or injury.
•
Never touch on the cabinet bottom by hands.
Never lift at the cabinet bottom by hands.
When the machine is covered.
Do not use the cover made of chloric vinyl. Sometimes it
damages resinous parts and painted surface. When you
use the cover made of chloric vinyl, put the cloth between
the machine and the cover.
When adjusting the legs, supports the top of the machine. Do not support the machine bottom.
1 Adjust the legs so that the machine does not move.
Note: After adjustment, lock the nuts of
the legs by rotating them in the direc-
tion of the arrow. Make sure so that the
bottom of the main body front does not
reach the floor. If the bottom is in touch
with the floor, then it will be the cause
of shaking and abnormal noise.
2 Check the position of the air bubble in the floor level
indicator.
•
If the bubble is not positioned inside the circle, adjust the height
by rotating the leg caps.
•
The ground pin in the plug should be connected to the proper point of the socket for grounding.

Installing the ground pin
Avoid place where the machine is exposed to direct
sunlight.
•
Plastic parts may become deformed or discolored.
Avoid places where the machine may become frozen
during cold weather.
Allow a space of at least 5 cm from the sides and rear
of the machine to the nearest vertical object.
•
When placed too near to walls or other objects, the
vibration of the machine during operation may cause
them to shake.
3 Depending on locations of the bubble in the horizontal
level indicator, place caps and lock legs (Make sure to
fix adjustable legs.)
•
Mount the leg caps on the
right-hand legs. Rotate the
height adjust legs to
perform height adjustment.
4 Hold down the diagonal line of the washing
machine and make sure that no ratting occurs.
•
Despite the fact that the bubble is inside the circle, the ratting
exists. Then shaking motion
becomes larger or some
abnormal noise comes out.
Make sure to readjust in case
the washing machine rattles.
■ About the leg caps
The machine comes with four leg caps: two for adjustment in
steps of 3 mm and two for adjustment in steps of 6 mm. Use
them in combination as required. If they are to be stacked, posi-
tion the thicker caps under thinner ones.
Allow 5 cm
(Ex) The washing machine is
tilted towards the right.
