Positioning Position the appliance on a flat and hard surface in a ventilated location. Ensure the appliance does not come into contact with the wall or other furni- ture. To move your appliance, proceed as follows: Place it on its rollers by pulling the lever located at the base of the appli- ance hard from right to left. Once the appliance is in the desired posi- tion, push the lever back to its original position. Accurate levelling avoids vibrations, noise and prevents the appli- ance from moving when running.
