machine during transport must be removed before the
washing machine is put into service for the first time.
Remove all packing from the
washing machine. Tilt the washing
machine sideways and then remove
the packing under the motor, and
straighten the washing machine.
Tilt the washing machine backwards, rotate it by a quarter of a turn
on one of its corner to remove the
transport base.

and plastic films.
Close the lid.
3.3. Moving your washing machine
If you want to move your washing

washing machine all the way to the
left. When you have put your
washing machine into the required
location, put the lever back into its
initial position.

Precise leveling will prevent vibrations, noise and movements of the washing machine during operation.
Make the washing machine level by
adjusting the leveling screw that is
too short. Unscrew the stand and
locking collar assembly (lift the

When the washing machine is stable, maintain the stand on the
ground and turn the locking collar as
far as posible.

Please install the water inlet hose onto the back of your
washing machine:
- Insert the seal in the hole at the bottom of the back panel (fig. 1).
Use a 10 mm spanner to remove the
two screws and spacers at the back.
You can now see the openings that
must be closed with the caches in the
pack attached to the washing machine; do not forget to fold down the
central capsule.
Make sure that you have removed all
these parts from your washing machine and keep them so that you can
use them again if you need them for
future transport.
If you want to keep your washing machine aligned with the adjacent furniture, you can cut the pipe support
strip at the back of your washing machine. Leave the two side closers in
place.

pipe (or in a sink) at a height between
70 and 100 cm. Make sure that it will
not fall out.
