Installation

! This instruction manual should be kept in a safe

place for future reference. If the washing machine

is sold, transferred or moved, make sure that the

instruction manual remains with the machine so

that the new owner is able to familiarise himself/

herself with its operation and features.

! Read these instructions carefully: they contain

vital information relating to the safe installation

and operation of the appliance.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking

1. Remove the washing machine from its packaging.

2. Make sure that the washing machine has not

been damaged during the transportation process.

If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do

not proceed any further with the installation process.

3. Remove the 4 pro-

tective screws (used

during transportation)

and the rubber washer

with the corresponding

spacer, located on the

rear part of the applian-

ce (see figure).

4. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs

provided.

5. Keep all the parts in a safe place: you will need

them again if the washing machine needs to be

moved to another location.

! Packaging materials should not be used as

toys for children.

Levelling

1. Install the washing

machine on a flat stur-

dy floor, without resting

it up against walls,

furniture cabinets or

anything else.

2. If the floor is not

perfectly level, com-

pensate for any une-

venness by tightening

or loosening the adjustable front feet (see figure);

the angle of inclination, measured in relation to

the worktop, must not exceed 2°.

Levelling the machine correctly will provide it with

stability, help to avoid vibrations and excessive

noise and prevent it from shifting while it is ope-

rating. If it is placed on carpet or a rug, adjust the

feet in such a way as to allow a sufficient venti-

lation space underneath the washing machine.

Connecting the electricity and wa-

ter supplies

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Connect the supply

pipe by screwing it to

a cold water tap using

a ¾ gas threaded con-

nection (see figure).

Before performing the

connection, allow the

water to run freely until

it is perfectly clear.

2. Connect the inlet

hose to the washing

machine by screwing

it onto the correspon-

ding water inlet of the

appliance, which is si-

tuated on the top right-

hand side of the rear

part of the appliance

(see figure).

3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over

or bent.

! The water pressure at the tap must fall within

the values indicated in the Technical details table

(see next page).

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

specialised shop or an authorised technician.

! Never use second-hand hoses.

! Use the ones supplied with the machine.
