If you do not have a spirit level, as a guide use the edge of a door frame, cupboard or bench to check that the washing machine is levelled. Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials under the machine to compensate for any unevenness in the floor. Install the machine on a flat hard floor. Make sure that air circulation around the machine is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that the machine does not touch the wall or cupboard units. 4.
