INSTALLATION

Installing Your Washing Machine

Please read and follow the instructions carefully.

• In addition to the instructions mentioned here, special regulations of the relevant water and power supply companies may apply. If in doubt, have the washing machine connected by a qualified technician.

• The washing machine is heavy - caution when lifting it. Do not lift by projecting components (e.g. washing machine door).

• Warning: Frozen hoses may tear/burst. Do not install washing machine in outdoor areas or where there is a risk of frost.

• Lay hoses and cables in such a way that there is no risk of trapping or kinking.

Additional space (150mm) is required for the rear side of the washing machine. This is to allow enough space for the water hose and drain hose.

Choosing the Right Location for Your Washing Machine

• Make sure there’s enough space for your washing machine.

• Install your washing machine on a flat, stable surface to avoid excessive vibration and noise.

• Don’t install your washing machine in direct sunlight or in a place where temperatures reach

freezing.

surface

Two or more people are required to carry the washing machine.

• When moving, start by tilting the washing machine backwards.

• One person should stand behind it, holding the rear of the top panel. The other person should grip

the bottom feet at the front.

• Don’t touch the door opening button while holding.

• Check that you have all the required accessories for installation.

• Entrust the installation of the washing machine to a qualified technician or service agent.

INSTALLATION

Moving and Installing

Two or more people are required to carry the washing machine and for any installation work.

Fix the Noise Protection Board onto the bottom of the machine BEFORE removing the transit bolts.

Installing the Noise Protection Board

To reduce the noise produced by the washing machine, install the noise protection board.

1. Lay down the machine. Unscrew the four feet.

2. Fit the board onto the bottom of the machine. The four holes in the board should correspond to the screw holes of the levelling feet.

3. Screw the four levelling feet back on to fix the noise protection board to the machine.

4. Stand the machine upright.

Removing the Transit Bolts

Three (3) transit bolts keep the interior of the washing machine in place while it is being moved.

They need to be removed before installation. Use a spanner (not included) and follow the instructions detailed below.

Do not run the washing machine without removing the bolts, as this can cause excessive vibrations.

C510WM12_IB_120323_Zell.indd 6 23/03/2012 5:00 PM

INSTALLATION

To remove the transit bolts:

1. Ensure the unit is fully disconnected from the mains power by unplugging it from the mains.

2. Unscrew the three (3) transit bolts.

3. They are located at the rear side of the washing machine. Use a spanner (not included) to loosen the three (3) transit bolts, then pull out the bolts horizontally. Ensure the plastic bolt guides (if any) are also removed.

4. Snap in the plastic caps to cover the transit bolt holes.

Keep the three (3) transit bolts in a safe place, in case you need to move the washing machine.

Ensure the transit bolts are fixed in place prior to moving the washing machine.

Before you move the washing machine:

• Shut off the tap and run the washing machine to drain the water. Drain any remaining water from the pump hose.

• Depressurise the water supply hose and remove it.

• Disconnect the unit from the mains.

• Replace the transit bolts (in the reverse order in which you removed them (please see the Moving

and Installing section for details).

INSTALLATION

Levelling the Washing Machine

There are 4 levelling feet on the underside. They must be adjusted to make sure the washing machine is level.

1. On each stand, loosen the lock nut by turning it clockwise with a spanner.

2. Adjust all four feet in this way.

3. Use a spirit level to ensure the washing machine is level.

4. Tighten each lock nut by turning them anti-clockwise (towards the washing machine body), again using a spanner.

Ensure all four lock nuts are tightened securely. Check the feet are still bolted to the washing machine - if they’re unbolted, the washing machine will move around.

Water Supply Hose

Points to remember

• Follow the instructions in this section to avoid water leaks.

• Don’t connect the hose to a combination tap.

• Don’t twist, squash, modify or cut the hose.

• Optimum water pressure in the main pipe is 0.03 MPa - 1.0 MPa. If the water pressure is set higher

than this, you will need to install a depressurising valve. Ensure the water flow amount and speed from the tap is sufficient. If you’re unsure, ask a qualified technician to connect the hose.

• This unit must only be connected to cold water mains using the new water inlet hose provided.

Connecting the Water Supply Hose

1. Connect the nut on the inlet hose to the connector on the water valve.

2. Apply inlet hose to a water tap with cold, fresh water.

3. Open the tap slowly and check that there are no leaks around the joint.

INSTALLATION

Water Drain Hose

Points to remember:

• Don’t twist, pull out or bend the drain hose.

• Your washing machine should be no more than 100cm from the drain outlet.

Draining to a sink or wash-basin

• Secure the drain hose in position, so it can’t drop out of the basin.

• Don’t block the basin’s drain outlet, and make sure that the drainage

through it is sufficient.

• Don’t let the tip of the drain hose dip into the drained water, as this can cause the water to flow back into the washing machine.

• Use the drain hose bracket to keep the end of the drain hose retained and prevent the outflow of water. Don’t extend the length of the drain hose; if an extended hose is required, please consult a serviceman.

The drain hose should not be submerged in water and should be securely fixed and leak-free. If the drain hose is placed on the ground or if the pipe is at a height of less than 80cm, the washing machine will continuously drain while being filled (self-siphoning).

Connecting to the Mains Supply

For your safety:

• Do not use a mains plug adapter or extension cable.

• If the mains cable or mains plug are damaged, stop using them and call a qualified technician for

assistance.
