Installation

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 washer-dryer.

Electric and water connections

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Connect the supply pipe 
by screwing it to a cold 
water tap using a  
3/4 gas threaded 
connection

 (see figure). 

Before performing the 
connection, allow the 
water to run freely until it is 
perfectly clear.

2. Connect the other end of 
the water inlet hose to the 
washer-dryer, 
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 page 5).

!

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

specialist store or an authorised serviceman.

!

  Ensure that the supply taps are allowing water through. 

Old taps may seize in the closed position and thus 
prevent water reaching the machine.

!

 Never use second-hand or old inlet hoses; use the 

products supplied with the machine.

Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future 

reference. Should the appliance be sold, transferred or 
moved, make sure the instruction manual accompanies the 
washer-dryer to inform the new owner as to its operation and 
features.

!

 Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital 

information on installation, use and safety.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking

!

 This is a separate part of 

the polystyrene base and 
should be removed with 
the base.

!

 

IMPORTANT check 

when unpacking your 
machine.

1. Unpack the washer-dryer.
2. Check whether the washer-dryer has been damaged 
during transport. If this is the case, do not install it and 
contact your retailer.

3. Remove the 4 protective 
screws and the rubber bush 
with the respective spacer, 
situated on the rear of the 
appliance 

(see also the 

installation leaflet).

4. Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs provided.
5. Keep all the parts: you will need them again if the 
washer-dryer needs to be moved to another location.

!

 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 washer-dryer 
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 
according to the worktop, must not exceed 2°.
