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 provi-
de 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 tap
using a
3/4 gas threaded
connection (see fi-
gure).
Before performing
the connection, allow
the water to run fre-
ely 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.
!
Ensure that the supply taps are allowing
water through. Old taps may seize in the
closed position and thus prevent water
reaching the machine.
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
!
This is a separate
part of the polysty-
rene base and should
be removed with the
base.
!
IMPORTANT check
when unpacking your
machine.
1. Unpack the washing
machine.
2. Check whether the
washing machine has
been damaged du-
ring transport. If this
is the case, do not
install it and contact
your retailer.
3. Remove the 4 pro-
tective screws and the rubber bush with the
respective spacer, situated on the rear of
the appliance (see also the installation lea-
flet).
4. Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs pro-
vided.
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
Your machine may make a considerable amount
of noise if the two front feet have not been
adjusted correctly.
1. Install the washing
machine on a flat
sturdy floor, without
resting it up against
walls, furniture cabi-
nets or other.
