Installing the appliance
Each appliance is carefully checked un-
der operating con ditions before leaving
our factory. Any moisture or water res-
idue which you may possibly find in the
appliance or outlet hose are attributable
to this check.
Installation area
In order to ensure the stability of the
appliance during spin drying, the instal-
lation area must be firm and level.
Soft floor coverings, e.g. fitted carpets
or coverings with a foamed material
backing are not suitable as an installa-
tion area.
Installation on timber joist
floors
Place the appliance on an at least 40 mm
►
thick, water-resistant timber board which
should be screwed firmly to the floor.
Installation should be made as far as
►
possible in the corner of the room.
Fasten the appliance by its feet using
the fixing set (this applies particularly in
the case of a washer-dryer tower).
Installation on a plinth
Important
During spinning, the washing machine
may wander and tip over or fall from the
plinth.
The base of the device must be fixed
►
securely to it with a fixing set in order to
prevent it from sliding off during its spin
cycle. (this applies particularly in the
case of a washer-dryer tower).
Installation on a slippery
surface
When the machine is installed on a
slippery surface (e.g. ceramic tile,
polished natural stone, fine concrete),
the feet of the machine must be secured
with an attachment set (attachment
set for glueing) to prevent the machine
from moving during spinning.
