Setup

Place the washing machine on a firm, level surface. Use the adjustable feet to ensure the machine is perfectly level, which is essential for stable and quiet operation, especially during the spin cycle. An unlevel machine can cause excessive vibration and noise.
Water and Drain Connections
Connect the water supply hose to a cold water tap and to the inlet valve on the back of the washing machine. Ensure all connections are tight to prevent leaks. The drain hose should be securely placed into a standpipe or hooked over the edge of a sink, ensuring it is not kinked or blocked. Verify that the drain hose is positioned correctly to prevent water spillage.
