LEVELLING THE WASHING MACHINE
After selecting a suitable position, level the machine carefully using the adjustable
feet (Fig. 4). Particular care must be taken when selecting the position, levelling the
washing machine and ensuring the safety of lock nuts.
If levelling is not carried out correctly, the washing machine will
be unstable and noisy during operation, which may result in dam-
age.
If the machine stands on a carpet fl oor, make sure that air can circulate freely between
the washing machine and the fl oor itself. It is not recommended that the machine be
installed in locations where the temperature is liable to drop below freezing.
CONNECTION TO THE WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM
▼
The mains water pressure must be between 0.05
and 1.00 MPa (0.5 - 10 bar.)
▼
Before connecting the water fi ll hose, open the
valve and allow a quantity of water to fl ow. This
will censure that the supply pipes are free from
impurities, such as sand or rust (this operation is
very important when the washing machine is being
connected to a new supply system or if the system
has not been used for a long period of time).
▼
Connect the water fi ll hose to a 3/4 threaded cold
water outlet.
▼
Place the fi lter washer supplied between the hose and the valve and hand
tighten the connection as much as possible (fi g. 5).
N.B.: Use the new pipe supplied with the machine and do not re-
use the old one.
▼
Fit the washer on the other end of the supply hose, and screw it onto the wash-
ing machine (fi g. 6).
▼
The water supply tap must be fully open when washing.
▼
The water drain hose must be placed at least 60 cm and not more than 90 cm
from the fl oor (fi g. 7).
▼
If the drain hose is connected to a fi xed drainage system, the free end must
be inserted in a pipe of minimum internal diameter 40 mm.
▼
The drain hose water connection to the drainage system must not be hermeti-
cally sealed, as this would cause air to accumulate and the water to siphon
out.
▼
If the waste water is to be discharged into a sink or washbasin, insert the
hose in the special bracket supplied and hook it over the edge of the sink or
washbasin. Then tie the hose and bracket to a tap or similar (fi g. 8). To avoid
overfl owing, the sink drain must be clear of obstructions and must be able to
empty quickly.
N.B. On electronic washing machines fi tted with a dual solenoid
valve (hot and cold water), connect the red hose to the hot water
supply valve and the other hose to the cold water supply valve.
If a hot water supply is not available, both hoses must be connected to the
cold supply using the fi tting supplied (see fi g. 5A)
