Damage to the appliance/fabrics
If the end of the drain hose is
immersed in the drained water, water
may be sucked back into the

– The end of the drain hose is not
immersed in the drained water.
– The water drains away quickly

Check the alignment of the washing
machine with a spirit level, and
adjust it if necessary. Change the
height by turning the appliance feet.
All four appliance feet must stand
firmly on the ground.
3.
Tighten the lock nut against the
housing.
In doing so, hold the foot tight and
do not adjust its height.
The lock nuts on all four appliance
feet must be screwed tightly against
the housing.
