Please read and follow the instructions carefully.
• In addition to the instructions mentioned here, special regulations of the relevant
water and power supply companies may apply. If in doubt, have the washing machine
connected by a qualified technician.
• The washing machine is heavy - caution when lifting it. Do not lift by projecting
components (e.g. washing machine door).
• Warning: Frozen hoses may tear/burst. Do not install washing machine in outdoor areas
or where there is a risk of frost.
• Lay hoses and cables in such a way that there is no risk of tripping over them.
Choosing the Right Location for Your Washing Machine
• Make sure there’s enough space for your washing machine.
• Install your washing machine on a flat, stable surface to avoid excessive vibrations and
noise.

• The ventilation openings in the base of the washing machine must not be obstructed by
carpet.
• Start by tilting the washing machine backwards.
• One person should stand behind it, holding the rear of the top panel. The other person
should grip the bottom feet at the front.
• Check that you have all the required accessories for installation.
• We recommend that you entrust the installation of the washing machine to a qualified
technician.
An additional space (approximately 120mm) is required at the rear of the
washing machine. This is to allow enough space for the water hose and drain hose
connections.
