Close to a tap and water outlet, as well as a power source
Adjust the washing machine’s feet to the floor
No more than a 2°angle
Attach water inlet hose to tap
Screw onto the cold water inlet on the machine
Connect the drain hose to a draining duct or under sink tap
Make sure to remove any blanks from the hose first
The drain hose should be raised 15cm from the ground
