Installing the Washer
NOTE: If the washer is delivered on a cold day
(below freezing), or is stored in an unheated room
or area during the cold months, do not attempt to
operate it until the washer has had a chance to
warm up.
Step 1: Position Washer Near Installation
Area
IMPORTANT: Install dryer before washer. This
allows room for attaching exhaust duct.
Move washer so that it is within 1,2 meters (4 feet) of
desired area of installation.
Figure 2
Step 2: Connect Fill Hoses
NOTE: Refer to section on Water Supply
Requirements before connecting fill hoses.
The appliance is to be connected to the water mains
using new hose-sets, and old hose-sets should not be
reused.
Turn on the water supply faucets and flush the lines for
approximately two minutes to remove any foreign
materials that could clog the filter screens in the fill
hoses, or the screens in the water mixing valve.
NOTE: When installing in newly constructed or
renovated building, it is very important to flush the
lines since build-up may have occurred during
construction.
Remove the two filter screens and the two plain rubber
washers from accessories bag, and install them
according to Figure 3.
IMPORTANT: Thread hose couplings onto valve
connections finger-tight, then approximately
1/4 turn with pliers. DO NOT cross thread or
overtighten couplings.
Turn water on and check for leaks. If leaks are found,
retighten the hose couplings. Continue tightening and
rechecking until no leaks are found.
IMPORTANT: Hoses and other natural rubber
parts deteriorate after extended use. Hoses may
develop cracks, blisters or material wear from the
temperature and constant high pressure they are
subjected to.
All hoses should be checked on a yearly basis for
any visible signs of deterioration. Any hose showing
the signs of deterioration listed above should be
replaced immediately.

Step 4: Position and Level the Washer
Place washer in position on a clean, firm and
reasonably level floor. Installing the washer on any
type of carpeting is not recommended.
Loosen 7/8 inch locknut and adjust the front and rear
leveling legs until the washer is level from side to side
and front to back (using a level). Washer should not
rock.
NOTE: Level must rest on raised portion of top
panel. Refer to Figure 10.
Tighten the locknuts securely against the washer
base using the 7/8 inch wrench. If the locknuts are not
tight, washer will move out of position during operation.
NOTE: DO NOT slide washer across floor if the
leveling legs have been extended, as legs and base
could become damaged.
NOTE: Use of the dispenser drawer or washer door
as a handle in the transportation of the washer may
cause damage to the dispenser or door.
Remove rubber feet from accessories bag and place on
all four leveling legs.
Verify that washer does not rock.
Figure 10
Washers elevated above floor level must be
anchored to that elevated surface, base or
platform. The material used to elevate the
washer should also be anchored to the floor
to ensure that the washer will not walk or
that the washer can not be physically
pulled, tipped or slid from its installed
position. Failure to do so may result in
conditions which can produce serious
injury, death and/or property damage.

Earthing Instructions
The washer must be earthed. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, earthing will reduce the
risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current. The washer is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-earthing conductor
and a 3-prong earthing plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
earthed in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
DO NOT modify the plug provided with the washer –
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
NOTE: Have a qualified electrician check the
polarity of the wall receptacle. If a voltage reading
is measured other than that illustrated, the
qualified electrician should correct the problem.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a
special cord or assembly available from the
manufacturer or its service agent.
Figure 16
DO NOT OPERATE OTHER APPLIANCES ON
THE SAME CIRCUIT. DO NOT OVERLOAD
CIRCUITS!
Do not operate both a washer and gas dryer on the
same circuit. Use separately fused 10 Amp circuits.
To reduce the risk of an electric shock or
fire, DO NOT use an extension cord or an
adapter to connect the washer to the
electric power source.

Water Supply Requirements
NOTE: Water supply faucets must fit standard
3/4-14 BSP metric female couplings.
DO NOT USE SLIP-ON OR CLAMP-ON
CONNECTIONS.
NOTE: Water supply faucets should be readily
accessible to permit turning them off when washer
is not being used.
Water Temperature
Cold:
Recommended cold water temperature is 16° to
27° Celsius (60° to 80° Fahrenheit).
Hot:
Recommended hot water temperature is 49° to
60° Celsius (120° to 140° Fahrenheit).
Warm:
Mixture of hot and cold water. (Warm water
temperature is dependent upon the water temperature
and the pressure of both the hot and cold water supply
lines.)
IMPORTANT: Turn off water supply faucets after
check-out and demonstration. Owner should turn
off water supply whenever there will be an
extended period of non-use.
NOTE: A longer fill hose is available (as optional
equipment at extra cost) if the hose (supplied with
the washer) is not long enough for the installation.
Order hose as follows:
Part Number 1010102 – 2,5 m Fill Hose
Figure 17
Water Pressure
Pressure must be a minimum of 138 to a maximum of
827 kPa (20 to 120 pounds per square inch) static
pressure measured at the faucet.
NOTE: For water pressure over 827 kPa
(120 pounds per square inch) we recommend the
installation of a pressure limiting valve (Part
Number PSL50DK). This item may be purchased
by calling 1300 652 100.
NOTE: Water pressure under 138 kPa (20 pounds
per square inch) will cause an extended fill time in
the washer and may not properly flush out the
detergent dispenser.
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may
be produced in a hot water system that has
not been used for two weeks or more.
HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot
water system has not been used for such a
period and before using the washer, turn on
all hot water faucets and let the water flow
from each for several minutes. This will
release any accumulated hydrogen gas. The
gas is flammable. Do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time.
