Removing the transport bolts d CAUTION To avoid possible injury and damage to the appliance and adjacent surfaces, all 4 transport bolts must be removed before using the appliance for the first time and must be retained for any future transport (e.g. when moving). q Loosen all four bolts before removing any of the bolts all the way from the unit. q Remove the bottom two bolts prior to removing the top two bolts. q Loosen the bolts using the closed end of the 1/2" wrench provided. Loosen them until they can be reĆ moved freely. q The recessed bottom bolts may be more easily removed using a 1/2" (13 mm) socket wrench. Storing the transport bolts Always keep the transport bolts for fuĆ ture transportation of the appliance (such as when moving out). q Store the transport bolts with the washer and bushing attached. q Completely remove all 4 transport bolt assemblies (bolt, spring, washer and bushings) by reaching through the open washing machine door and pulling the drum slightly forward to loosen, then pull out from the back. q If the bushings do not come out when removing the bolts, place the bolts back into the bushings and carefully try again. It is important to do this with the bolts, otherwise the bushings will not come out properly. q To store the bolts for future use, do not remove the bolts from the plastic bushings. Water connection Water supply ATTENTION The washing machine must only be operated with cold and hot (max. 140 °F / 60 °C) tap water. Do not connect the appliance to the mixer tap of an unpressurized hotĆwater boiler. If in doubt, have the water connection installed by an authorized technician. The water supply hoses must not be: - Bent or flattened. - Modified or cut (integrity can no longer be guaranteed). Observe the water pressure in the supply network: - The water pressure should be between 14.5 and 145 p.s.i. (1 and 10 bars) when the tap is turned on, at least 2.2 U. S. gallons (8 liters) of water should be discharged per minute. - A pressure regulator valve must be installed if the maximum water pressure is exceeded. ATTENTION To prevent water damage, the hot and cold water valves should be accessible when the washing machine is in place and should always be turned off when the washing machine is not in use. ATTENTION If installing the washing machine in a new building or a building in which the plumbing system was recently installed or upgraded, flush the lines before installing the washing machine to remove any sand, dirt or residue.
