Water connection
Connect the water inlet hose to a cold water tap
with a 3/4" gas threaded orifice, after having
inserted the rugger sealing washer into the hose
collar. If the water connection is made onto new
pipes or onto pipes which have not been used for
a long time, it is advisable to run off a certain
amount of water before connecting the machine.
Place the curved end of the outled hose into a
drain pipe having a height between 70 and 100
cm from floor level or secure it to a sink or bath tub.
Make sure that the drain hose is firmly secured so
that it will not slip out or fall down from its position.
The water should drain freely and, consequently,
the drain hose should not be choked or placed in
such a way as to obstruct the normal water flow.
If an extension hose is required, remember that it
might cause a malfunction in the drain pump,
particularly if the extension has a length in excess
of 1 meter or if the diameter of the extension is
smaller than the diameter of the original drain
hose.
Electrical connection
Before you fit the plug into the wall socket, check
the following points :
1) The supply voltage of the domestic wiring
system does not fluctuate by more that 10%, plus
or minus, from 230 V.
2) The meter, the fuses, the supply line and the
wall socket are suitable to carry the maximum
load required by the machine (2,3 kW).
Very important :
The washing machine is provided with a
feeding wire with earth connection: it must be
connected to a plug like that is provided with
a good earth connection.
The replacing of the power cord must only be
realized by the After Sales Service.
The manufacturer declines any responsibility
where the previous recommendations are not
followed.
