Levelling
Your machine will be noisy if the two front feet are
not adjusted so that the machine stands firm and
level.
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, compen-
sate 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 next page)
.
