Unpacking
To ensure the best performance from your new washer please follow the instructions below.
Removing the packaging
1Remove the outer packaging (including the polystyrene packer and plastic wrapping). All
packaging must be removed prior to use. Ensure these materials are kept out of reach of
children. Note: a small amount of water may be seen inside the packaging and inside the
washer. This is the result of factory testing and is normal.
2Tilt the machine backwards and ‘walk’ it off the base one foot at a time. Not doing so
may cause damage to your floor and washer.
3Remove all packaging and accessories from inside the drum.
Removing the transit bolts
The clothes washer is fitted with 4 transit bolts at the rear to avoid damage during
transportation.
ImpORTANT!
The 4 transit bolts MUST be removed prior to operation of the machine. Failure to
remove these will result in damage to the machine.
To remove the bolts:
1Use a spanner or socket to unscrew and remove all four transit bolts at the back of the
washer (C).
2Pull the black rubber grommets to remove the bolt, grommet and white plastic spacers
from the machine. Keep the transit bolts in case they are required for future transit of the
machine. Never transport the machine without the transit bolts properly fixed in place.
3Cover the bolt holes with the white plastic plugs which are attached to the machine and
located near each hole (p). Push to clip into place.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Location
ImpORTANT!
Install the machine on a solid and level floor surface ensuring it has at least 20mm
clearance on each side. The washer must not be installed on any textured floor
coverings (eg carpet, rugs).
Levelling the machine
It is IMPORTANT to level the machine to ensure good spin
performance, and to minimise noise, vibrations and wear
and tear on the washer.
1Before positioning the machine in its final position, check
that the machine is level, front to back and side to side.
2Manoeuvre the product into its final position (we suggest a
minimum clearance of 20mm each side).
3Use a spirit level to check that the machine is correctly
level. If needed, pull the machine out and wind the feet up
or down to correctly level the machine.
4Using the spanner provided, tighten the lock nuts against
the base of the machine to lock the feet in position.
Connecting to the water supply
Inlet hoses
ImpORTANT!
 New hose sets provided with the washer should be
used to connect the washer to the water mains.
 Old hose sets should not be re-used.
 We recommend the inlet hoses are changed every
5 years. WARNING: Failure to do so may result in a
flood and damage to property.
1Connect the straight ends of the inlet hoses to the taps
and the elbow ends to the corresponding machine inlet
valves. The hot valve is colour coded orange to make
this easier. Make sure there are no kinks in the hoses.
2Turn the taps on and check for leaks. Check for leaks
again after 24hours.
ImpORTANT!
The hot water temperature should not exceed 65°C and the cold water temperature
not exceed35°C. Temperatures above these may cause the machine to fault or cause
damage to the machine.
