INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
POSITIONING THE WASHING MACHINE
The washing machine can be installed as a built-
in (integrated) or a free-standing unit. Place the
machine on a level surface so that the power outlet
on the wall is accessible.
Before connecting the washing machine to the
power mains, wait for at least 2 hours until it reaches
room temperature.
Built-in washing machine
The washing machine can be integrated under a
worktop with a height of 900–950 mm. Leave 5 cm
of room around the entire perimeter of the appliance,
including between the back edge of the upper cover
and the wall behind it.
Free-standing appliance
If you have a dryer of suitable dimensions (by
another dryer manufacturer), use the vacuum feet
to stack it on top of the washing machine, or place it
next to it.

Stacking an ASKO dryer on top of an ASKO
washing machine
To stack an ASKO dryer on top of a washing
machine, use the extra vacuum feet and the tipping
guard (A+B), supplied in the cardboard box in the
ASKO dryer drum. If the washing machine and
dryer are not of matching dimensions or if you
have installed a hidden helper between the two
appliances, then binding plates are available as
optional accessories at the service unit.
