Where you install the machine will affect its performance.

●

For your safety and to comply with electrical
regulations, seek professional advice if you want to
install your machine in a bath or shower room.

●

Make sure that the electrical socket and water taps are 
easily accessible. You  should switch off the machine’s   
electrical and water supplies when you are not using it.

●

Make sure that you allow enough space for the 
machine. Select a space at least 600mm wide, 600mm 
deep and 850mm high. Also leave  enough space to 
open the door fully so you can load and unload it easily.

●

Where possible the machine should be positioned on a 
solid level floor to minimise vibration.

●

Take care when you move the machine not to rip any 
floor coverings. There are wheels on the bottom rear of 
the machine, so tilting it backwards a little is the easiest
way to move it. The weight of  the machine may cause 
indentations in some  floor coverings.

Follow these steps for trouble free installation:

After removing the packaging from the machine, make
sure that the polystyrene block (figure 1) has come away
from the underside of the machine, with the polystyrene
base.

If it has not come away, carefully lower the machine on
its side onto the polystyrene top cap and then remove
the polystyrene block (see figure 2).
You may need a second person to help you lower and
raise the machine.
