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 provided.
5. Keep all the parts: you will need them again if the

washing machine needs to be moved to another

location.

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

perfectly level, compen-

sate 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 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.
Putting your appliance in place and moving it.

If your washing

machine is equipped

with a special set of

retractable wheels you

can easy move it. To

lower the wheels and

thus move the

appliance effortlessly,

just pull the lever,

situated on the left-

hand side beneath the

base. Once the appliance is in the required

position, put the lever back in place. The washing
machine is now firmly in place (see figure).

Electric and water connections

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Insert seal A into

the end of the inlet

hose and screw the

latter onto a cold

water tap with a 3/4

gas threaded mouth

(see figure).

Before making 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

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 next page).



If the water inlet hose is not long enough,

contact a specialist store or an authorised

serviceman.
