To help prevent vibration we recommend you place a waterproof wood panel, at least 15 mm thick under the appliance, secured to at least 2 floor beams with screws, the wood panel must extend beyond the front feet. If possible install the appliance in one of the corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.
The other end of the inlet hose which connects to the appliance can be turned as showed in the picture. Do not place the inlet hose downwards. Angle the hose to the left or right depending on the position of your water tap. Set the hose correctly by loosening the ring nut. After positioning the inlet hose, be sure to tighten the ring nut again to prevent leaks. Caution! The inlet hose must not be lengthened.
If the outlet spigot has not been used before, remove any blanking plug that may be in place. Push the drain hose onto the spigot and secure with a clip, ensure a loop is formed in the drain hose (see above) to prevent waste from the sink entering the appliance. If you intend to drain the hose from the machine into a sink, make sure that the sink is empty and the plug hole is not blocked. Use the plastic “U - Piece” supplied.
