4. Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of your washing machine. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Unpacking: Remove all packaging materials, including the base packaging and any internal packing. Inspect the machine for any damage.
2. Location: Place the washing machine on a firm, level surface, preferably in a dry area away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Ensure there is enough space for ventilation and opening the lid.
3. Leveling: Use the adjustable front right foot to level the machine. Ensure all four feet are firmly on the ground and the machine does not wobble. A level machine reduces vibration and noise during operation.
4. Water Inlet Connection: Connect the cold water inlet hose to the cold water tap and the corresponding inlet valve on the back of the machine. Tighten connections securely to prevent leaks.
5. Drain Hose Placement: Position the drain hose into a standpipe or over the edge of a sink, ensuring it is securely fixed to prevent it from dislodging during draining. The drain hose should be at an appropriate height (typically 60-90 cm from the floor) to ensure proper drainage.
6. Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the voltage and frequency match the specifications of the machine.
7. Rat Cover Protection: Install the provided rat cover at the bottom of the machine to prevent rodents from entering and damaging internal components.
