Owner`s manual
THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING DEFY 
You are now the proud owner of one of the finest and most modern washing machines 
that today’s technology can produce. You and your Automaid are going to make a great 
team together. But first it will pay if you really get to know each other. This book will tell 
you all you need to know about your machine, what it will do and how to do it. Please 
read all the instructions carefully before operating the machine. 
INSTALLATION 
Packaging 
All packaging must be removed from the machine 
Transport fittings 
The wash drum is secured during transport to prevent damage. 
Before using the machine, remove the transport fittings as follows: 
1.  Using a suitable spanner, loosen the three transport bolts (C) by turning them in an 
anti-clockwise direction until the bolts can be partially withdrawn. 
2.  Remove the bolts and the rubber bushes by pulling outwards. An up and down action 
together with a little dishwashing liquid will ease the removal. 
3.  Insert the three plastic plugs (P) supplied with the machine into the holes vacated by 
the transport fittings. 
Note: 
To prevent damage, the machine should not be transported without the 
transport fittings securely in place. 
Note: 
Never place the machine on a carpet. This could prevent air circulation and 
cause electrical components in the machine to overheat
