Installation
Positioning and levelling
Install the machine on a flat hard floor.
Make sure that air circulation around the machine is
not impeded by carpets, rugs etc.
Before placing it on small tiles, apply a rubber
coating.
Never try to correct any unevenness in the floor by
putting pieces of wood, cardboard or similar
materials under the machine.
If it is impossible to avoid positioning the machine next to a gas cooker or coal-
burning stove, an insulating panel covered with aluminium foil on the side facing
the cooker or stove, must be inserted between the two appliances.
The machine must not be installed in rooms where the temperature can drop
below 0.
The water inlet hose and the drain hose must not be kinked.
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed, it is easily accessible for the
engineer in the event of a breakdown.
Carefully level by screwing the adjustable feet in or out. Never place cardboard,
wood or similar materials under the machine to compensate for any unevenness
in the floor.
Water inlet
An inlet hose is supplied and can be found inside the machine drum.
Do not use the hose from your previous machine to connect to the
water supply.
This appliance must be connected to a cold water supply.
1.
Open the porthole and extract the inlet hose.
2.
Connect the hose with the angled connection to the machine.
Do not place the inlet hose downwards. Angle the hose to the left or
right depending on the position of your water
tap.
