							Installation site
The washer cannot be built-in.
,Do not install the machine
directly next to or over an open floor
drain or drain channel. Moisture can
penetrate the machine and damage
electrical parts.
A concrete floor is the most suitable
surface for the washer. Concrete floors
are less prone to vibration during the
spin cycle than wooden floors.
,If the machine is installed on a
masonry or concrete base itmust
be secured with retaining clips to
prevent the washer from vibrating off
the stand during the spin cycle.
^The machine must be leveled and
securely positioned.
^To avoid vibration while spinning, the
machine shouldnot be installedon
soft floor coverings.
In case the installation must be on a
wooden joist floor:
^
Install the unit on a 27
9/16 x 235/8 x
13/16 (70 x 60 x 3 cm) plywood
base. Ideally the base should be
large enough to span several joists
and should be anchored to the joists
and not just the floor boards.
It is best to install the washer in the
corner of a room, where the stability of
the floor is at its greatest.
Installation
^Use the front washer feet and the rear
excess end to transport the washer
from its shipping pallet to the
installation site.
Do not lift the washer by the drum
door.
,Ensure that the machine’s feet
and the floor are dry to prevent
slippage during the spin cycle.
Removing the shipping struts
^Remove the left and right rotary
protectors.
1. Unhook the rotary protector with a
screw driver.
2. Remove the rotary protectors.
Installation

							^Turn the left shipping strut
counterclockwise 90° with the
enclosed combination wrench.
^
Pull the shipping strut out.^Turn the right shipping strut
counterclockwise 90° with the
enclosed combination wrench.
^
Pull out the shipping strut out.
Installation

							^Close the holes with the rotary
protectors and their caps.
^
Fasten the shipping struts at the rear
side of the washer. Take care to insert
the drill holes,b, into the clamps,a.
,Movement of the washer without
the shipping struts in place should
be kept to a minimum. The shipping
struts should be stored on the back
of the washer for future use. They
must be reinstalled before moving
the machine.
Installing the shipping struts
^Reinstall the struts by reversing the
installation procedure.

							Leveling the washer
To ensure smooth operation the washer
must be level.
Failure to level the machine can result
in increased water and energy
consumption as well as the washer
banging during the spin cycle or
walking across the floor during use.Adjust the four leveling feet
The washer is leveled by adjusting the
four feet. The machine is boxed with the
feet completely screwed in.
^Turn the locking ring,2, counter-
clockwise with the enclosed
combination wrench. Unscrew each
of the four feet as much as necessary
by turning both the foot,1, and the
locking ring,2, to the left.
^
Check that the machine stands level.
^
Once level, hold the foot,1, steady
with a wrench. Turn the locking ring,
2, with the combination wrench
towards the machine.
,All four locking rings must be
tight against the bottom of the
machine. In addition, check to see
that the feet were not inadvertently
unscrewed while tightening the
rings. Running a machine that is not
level or whose feet are not tight may
cause damage to both the machine
and its surrounding area.
