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 washing machine 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
1. Unpack the washing machine.
2. Check whether the washing machine 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 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.
Packaging materials are not children's toys.
Levelling
1. Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy
floor, without resting it up against walls, furniture
cabinets or other.
2. If the floor is not
perfectly level, com-
pensate 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°.
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.
Electric and water connections
Connecting the water inlet hose
1. Insert seal A into the
end of the inlet hose
and screw the latter
onto a cold water tap
with a 3/4 gas threaded
mouth
(see figure)
.
Before making 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 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 page 5)
;
If the water inlet hose is not long enough,
contact a specialist store or an authorised
serviceman.
