Installation

Positioning
Install the machine on a flat hard floor. Make sure that air circulation around the machine is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. � Before placing it on small tiles, apply a rubber coating. � Never try to correct any unevenness in the floor by putting pieces of wood, cardboard or similar materials under the machine. � If it is impossible to avoid positioning the machine next to a gas cooker or coal-burning stove, an insulating panel (85x57 cm) covered with aluminium foil on the side facing the cooker or stove, must be inserted between the two appliances; � The machine must not be installed in rooms where the temperature can drop below 0°C. � The water inlet hose and the drain hose must not be kinked. � Please ensure that when the appliance is installed, it is easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a breakdown.

Levelling
Carefully level by screwing the adjustable feet in or out. Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials under the machine to compensate for any unevenness in the floor.

Installation on a suspended floor
Suspended wooden floors are particularly susceptible to vibration. 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. If possible install the appliance in one of the corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.
