2. Remove the machine from the carton.
Carefully lay the machine on a protective mat with the front side down. Screw the 2-adjustable feet, supplied
with your machine into the front holes marked A (see Fig. l-l).
Screw the two fixed feet securely into the rear holes marked B using the accessory spaner (see Fig. l-1 ).
Stand the machine upright, carefully position the machine in the selected area of your choice and adjust the height
of the front adjustable feet to level and stabilize your machine. (see Fig. l-2).
Caution
Do not install the adjustable foot at the corner where the pump motor is mounted(adjacent to the drain hose outlet).
The thread section of the adjustable foot could touch the fan of the pump motor and could lead to failure of the
washing machine.
