Installation area
Appliance stability is important so that the washing
machine does not "wander" during the spin cycles.
The installation area must be solid and even. Soft floor
surfaces, such as carpets or surfaces with foam
backing, are not suitable.
If the washing machine is to be installed on a wood
joist ceiling:
1. If possible, place the washing machine in a corner
of the room.
2. Screw a water resistant wooden board (at least
30 mm thick) to the floor.
3. Affix the feet of the washing machine using holding
brackets*.
If the washing machine is to be placed on a pedestal:
4. Affix the feet of the washing machine using holding
brackets*.
* Holding brackets (set) can be obtained from
a specialist store or the Customer Service
(order no. WX 9756).
