Positioning the washing machine
The washing machine can be installed as a
built-in or freestanding unit. Position the
machine so that the electrical plug is easily
accessible.
A. Built-in
The washing machine can be installed under
a bench top with a working height of 870 - 900
mm. Leave 20mm around the whole machine,
particularly between the rear edge of the top
cover and the wall behind it.
B. Freestanding
The washing machine can be positioned
beside or under a dryer.
Adjusting the feet
Keep the noise that the machine produces to
a minimum by adjusting the feet so that the
machine is steady and balanced on the floor.
Tighten the lock nuts.
Connection to water supply
Water connection should be carried out by a
qualified professional. Connect the machine
using the accompanying supply hose. Water
pressure should be 0.1–1MPa (approx.
1–10kp/cm2 ; 10-100N/cm2). There should
be a stopcock or tap on the water pipe.
If the pipes are newly installed, it may be wise
to flush them through so that any dirt is
washed away. Otherwise, dirt can clog the
filter in the machine’s water intake and cut off
cut off or reduce water flow to the machine.
Check for leaks.
Only use the inlet hose supplied with the
machine. Do not reuse old or other loose inlet
hoses.
