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 4

protective screws and

the rubber bush with the

respective spacer,

situated on the rear of

the appliance (see also

the installation leaflet).

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.



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 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.

Electric and water connections

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Connect the supply

pipe by screwing it to a

cold water tab using a

3/4 gas threaded

connection (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

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.



Ensure that the supply taps are allowing water

through. Old taps may seize in the closed position

and thus prevent water reaching the machine.
