Adjust the feet

Install the appliance on a level 
surface, near to electrical, 
water and drain connections.
If the floor is uneven, adjust 
the feet (do not insert pieces of 
wood, cardboard etc. under 
the feet):

1.

Loosen the locknut using the 

wrench provided.

2.

Adjust the height of the 
foot by hand.

3.

Retighten the locknut by 
turning it anti-clockwise.

Make sure that all feet are 
resting correctly on the 
floor and that the appliance 
is perfectly level and stable 
(use a spirit level).

The appliance can be installed 
in an area 40 cm wide and 
63 cm deep.

Note: 

if you install the 

machine on thick carpet, adjust 
the feet to ensure that there is 
sufficient space under the 
machine for the air to circulate.

Connect the water inlet 
hose.

1.

Carefully screw the water 

inlet hose onto the tap by 
hand.

2.

Make sure there are no 
kinks in the hose.

3.

Check water-tightness of 
tap and appliance 
connections by turning the 
tap completely on.

If the hose is too short, replace 
it with a suitable length of 
pressure resistant hose 
(minimum 1000 kPa - EN 50084 
approved type).
Periodically check the hose for 
brittleness and cracks. Replace 
if necessary.
The appliance can be 
connected without a nonreturn 
valve.

For Great Britain & Ireland 
only (if available):

1.

Carefully screw both water 

inlet hoses:

hot (see 

A

) fill hose,

and cold (see 

B

) fill hose.

The warm water inlet 
temperature must not exceed 
60° C.
