3. INSTALLATION
3.1. Unpacking
Packing used to protect internal parts of
the washing machine during transport
must be removed before the washing
machine is put into service for the first ti-
me.
Remove all packing from the
washing machine. Tilt the
washing machine sideways and
then remove the packing under
the motor, and straighten the
washing machine.
Tilt the washing machine back-
wards, rotate it by a quarter of a
turn on one of its corner to re-
move the transport base.
Open the washing machine lid
and remove the immobilization
packing and plastic films.
Close the lid.
Use a 10 mm spanner to remo-
ve the two screws and spacers
at the back.
You can now see the openings
that must be closed with the ca-
ches in the pack attached to the
washing machine; do not forget
to fold down the central capsule.
Make sure that you have remo-
ved all these parts from your
washing machine and keep
them so that you can use them
again if you need them for future
transport.
If you want to keep your
washing machine aligned with
the adjacent furniture, you can
cut the pipe support strip at the
back of your washing machine.
Leave the two side closers in
place.
3.2. Position
Put the washing machine on a flat hard floor in a well
ventilated room.
Make sure that your washing machine does not touch
the wall or any other furniture in the room.
3.3. Moving your washing machine
If you want to move your
washing machine, lift it onto its
rollers by pulling the lever at the
bottom of the washing machine
all the way to the left. When you
have put your washing machine
into the required location, put
the lever back into its initial
position.
3.4. Leveling
Precise leveling will prevent vibrations, noise and mo-
vements of the washing machine during operation.
Make the washing machine le-
vel by adjusting the leveling
screw that is too short.
Unscrew the stand and locking
collar assembly (lift the
washing machine if necessary).
When the washing machine is
stable, maintain the stand on
the ground and turn the locking
collar as far as posible.
3.5. Water inlet
Screw the supply ppe con-
nector onto the water inlet tap
(20x27 mm), remembering to
use the washer provided with
the washing machine.
Open the water inlet tap.
