Installation
! 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 four
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 provi-
ded.
5. Keep all the parts:
you will need them
again if the washing
machine needs to be
moved to another lo-
cation.
Warning: should the screws be re-used, make
sure you fasten the shorter ones at the top.
! 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 per-
fectly level, compensa-
te for any unevenness
by tightening or loo-
sening the adjustable
front feet
(see figure)
;
the angle of inclination,
measured according to
the worktop, must not
exceed 2°.
Levelling your applian-
ce 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. Connect the supply
pipe by screwing it to
a cold water tab using
a ¾ gas threaded con-
nection (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 washing
machine,
screwing it onto the ap-
pliance’s cold water in-
let, 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)
.
!
If the water inlet hose is not long enough,
contact a specialist store or an authorised
serviceman.
! Never use hoses that have already been used.
