INSTALLATION GUIDE
Levelling the washer
It is IMPORTANT to level the washer. Having a level washer set up in its cavity will
ensure best performance for spinning, minimising noise, vibrations and wear and tear on
the washer.
Before positioning your washer in its final
position, check that the machine is level,
front to back and side to side.
Level the washer side to side:
1 Place the level on the centre front of
the washer.
1
2 If you need to adjust the washer’s
position, loosen the lock nut using the
spanner provided and turn the feet up or
down until the washer is level side to side.
To wind the feet up turn clockwise, to wind
the feet down turn counter-clockwise.
10
2
3
Level the washer front to back:
1 Place the level on the left side, in line with
the centre of the washer.
2 Adjust the front left foot and then the
right foot until the washer is level.
There should be equal weight on both
front feet.
Using the spanner provided, tighten the
lock nuts against the base of the washer
tolockthe feet in position.
Move and centre the washer into its final
position within the cavity, using adjacent walls
as a guide and allowing 20mm clearance at
the back and sides of the washer.
Recheck the washer is level, front to back
and side to side. Repeat the above steps
if required.
INSTALLATION GUIDE
Water supply
Water supply requirements
If you have an uncontrolled water heating source (eg a wet back or solar heating system)
you should fit a tempering valve. This will ensure the hot water temperature remains within
safe limits. Contact your registered plumber to select and install the tempering valve.
Your cold water should not exceed 35°C and your hot water should not exceed 65°C.
Temperatures above these may cause the washer to fault or cause damage to the washer.
z
Inlet water static pressure: Max.1MPa(145psi) Min.30KPa (4.5psi).
z
Inlet water flow rate at tap: Min.6litres/min.
Inlet hose(s)
Failure to adhere to the following guidance may result in
a flood and damage to property. Only use the new hose
set(s) provided with your washer.
1 Connect the straight ends of the inlet hose(s) to the
tap(s), thereare washers fitted in both ends.
2 Connect the elbow ends to the corresponding washer
inlet valves. If present, the hot valve is coloured
orange to make this easier.
3 Tighten the inlet hose(s) ends by hand until the hose
seal just makes contact with the tap-sealing face.
Continue to tighten a further half-turn.
4 Make sure there are no kinks in the hose(s).
5 Turn the tap(s) on and check for leaks. Check for leaks
again after 24 hours.
Cold supply only
For models WH8560F, WH8560P2, WH8060F, WH8060P2, and WH7560P, if you only have
a cold water supply, you must connect the inlet valve cap (blanking cap) provided with
your washer to the hot inlet valve. The cap prevents water leaking out of the hot valve. This
appliance incorporates backflow protection complying with AS3500.1/IEC61770. No further
backflow protection is required for connection to the water supply.
Your washer has an internal heater to heat water. If you do not connect a hot water inlet
hose, your washer will automatically recognise there is no hot water supply and its internal
heater will heat the cold water to the selected cycle temperature.

INSTALLATION GUIDE
Draining
In multi-storey apartments or any upper floor, the washer should be installed on a floor
equipped with a drain. Draining must comply with local by-laws.
Place the drain hose in a tub or standpipe
The hose guide is used to hold the drain hose over the tub or standpipe.
1 Flex the guide apart and pull the hose
20mm
max.
If the drain hose is placed on the ground or if the tub or standpipe is less than 600mm
high, the washing machine will continuously drain (siphon) while being filled.
Tub or standpipe height should be a minimum of 600mm.
Regularly check that your tub or standpipe is free from lint or other obstructions. This may
affect operation or cause flooding.
through the guide.
2 Ensure a maximum of 20mm of hose is
left exposed at the end.
3 Secure the hose guide to prevent it
dislodging from the standpipe or tub.
Attach drain hose to spigot
The hose guide is used to hold the drain hose high enough to prevent continuous draining
(siphoning).
1 Flex the guide apart and pull the hose
through the guide.
2 Secure the hose guide to a wall or the
back wall of the cupboard using a screw.
3 Drill out the blanking insert from spigot to
ensure the washer can drain correctly.
4 Attach drain hose to spigot and secure
using a hose clamp.
5 Check for leaks.
