Fix the base firmly to the
floor using four appropriate
countersunk screws
(see Fig. H).
With the appliance
installed adjust all four
feet ensuring the machine
is stable, and a clearance
of approximately 5 mm is
left between the top of the machine and the underside of the work-
top.
A final check for stability should be carried out with the machine on
spin with a load, this will identify the need for any further fine adjust-
ment to the feet.
A strip of beading approximately 605 mm W, x 5 mm H, x 25 mm D
must be screwed down into the base directly in front of the machine’s
feet, this will provide additional security.
If required an additional door magnet, part number 1242394-00/3 and
disc, part number 1242393-00/5 are available from spare parts.

Recommendations regarding the construction and fitting of
a base when the installation requires an integrated appliance
to be raised
Where the appliance has been raised by mounting onto a wooden base pro-
vided by the installer. The material used to construct the base should have
a non slip surface, be water repellent and if possible be one solid piece.
If it is not possible to
use one solid piece,
due to the additional
height required, ensure
that any additional
strips of timber are
glued and screwed to
the underside of the
base (see Fig. F).
Position the base into
the recess with its front
edge as far forward as
the adjoining plinth
line will allow. The rea-
son for placing the
base in this position is
to allow a small strip
of beading to be fit-
ted in front of the
appliance feet.
