Installation

! Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future refe-

rence. Should the appliance be sold, transferred or moved,

make sure the instruction manual accompanies the washing

machine to inform the new owner as to its operation and

features.

! Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital infor-

mation on installation, use and safety.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking

1. Unpack the washing

machine.

2. Check whether the wa-

shing machine has been

damaged during transport.

If this is the case, do not

install it and contact your

retailer.

3. Remove the four protec-

tive screws and the rubber

washer with the respective

spacer, situated on the

rear of the appliance (see

figure).

4. Seal the gaps using the

plastic plugs provided.

5. Keep all the parts: you will need them again if the washing

machine needs to be moved to another location.

Warning: should the screws be re-used, make sure you fasten

the shorter ones at the top.

! Packaging materials are not children’s toys.

Levelling

Your machine may make a considerable amount of noise if

the two front feet have not been adjusted correctly.

1. Install the washing ma-

chine on a flat sturdy floor,

without resting it up against

walls, furniture cabinets or

other.

2. If the floor is not perfectly

level, compensate for any

unevenness by tightening or

loosening the adjustable front

feet (see figure); the angle of

inclination, measured accor-

ding to the worktop, must not exceed 2°.

Levelling your appliance correctly will provide it with stability

and avoid any vibrations, noise and shifting during operation.

If it is placed on a fitted or loose carpet, adjust the feet in

such a way as to allow enough room for ventilation beneath

the washing machine.

Putting your appliance in place and moving it.

If your washing machine

is equipped with a special

set of retractable wheels

you can easy move it.

To lower the wheels and

thus move the appliance

effortlessly, just pull the

lever, situated on the left-

hand side beneath the

base. Once the appliance

is in the required position,

put the lever back in place.

The washing machine is

now firmly in place (see figure).

Electric and water connections

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Connect the supply pipe

by screwing it to a cold water

tab using a ¾ gas threaded

connection (see figure).

Before performing the con-

nection, allow the water to

run freely until it is perfectly

clear.

2. Connect the other end of

the water inlet hose to the

washing machine, screwing

it onto the appliance’s cold

water inlet, situated on the

top right-hand side on the

rear of the appliance (see

figure).

3. Make sure there are no kinks or bends in the hose.

! The water pressure at the tap must be within

the values indicated in the Technical details table

(on the next page).

! If the water inlet hose is not long enough, contact a spe-

cialist store or an authorised serviceman.
