The washer-dryer stack must be set up on a completely level, hori-
zontal and firm surface with the minimum stated floor load capacity
(see "Technical data").
Tip: A concrete floor is the most suitable installation surface. It is far
less prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floorboards
or a carpeted surface.
The floor load created by the washer-dryer stack is the load exerted
by the area of the machine in contact with and transferred to the in-
stallation surface.
The washer-dryer stack requires a gap of at least 300 mm on each
side to allow for movement during operation. Please ensure a min-
imum distance of 400 mm is maintained between the rear of the ma-
chine and the rear wall.
The washer-dryer stack must not be installed on a carpeted floor.
The feet of the washer-dryer stack must be secured to the fastening
points on the floor using the fittings supplied.
The fittings included are for bolting the washer-dryer stack to a con-
crete floor. If other floor types are present at the installation site, the
fastening material must be ordered by the customer.
Levelling the machine
Align the washing machine vertically and horizontally using the ad-

justable feet and a spirit level.
The washing machine must stand evenly and horizontally on all four
feet to ensure trouble-free and energy-efficient operation. Otherwise
the water and energy consumption increases and the washing ma-
chine might move around.
After aligning the machine, tighten the lock nuts by turning them in

a counterclockwise direction with a spanner. This will prevent the
feet from adjusting themselves.
