Connecting the drain hose

Connect the drain hose,

without bending it, to a

draining duct or a wall

drain situated between

65 and 100 cm from the

floor;

alternatively, place it over

the edge of a basin, sink

or tub, fastening the

duct supplied to the tap

(see figure). The free end

of the hose should not

be underwater.



We advise against the use of hose extensions; in

case of absolute need, the extension must have the

same diameter as the original hose and must not

exceed 150 cm in length.

Electric connection

Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket,

make sure that:

• the socket is earthed and in compliance with the

applicable law;

• the socket is able to sustain the appliance's

maximum power load indicated in the Technical

details table (on the right);

• the supply voltage is included within the values i

ndicated on the Technical details table

(on the right);

• the socket is compatible with the washing

machine's plug. If this is not the case, replace the

socket or the plug.



The washing machine should not be installed in an

outdoor environment, not even when the area is

sheltered, because it may be very dangerous to leave

it exposed to rain and thunderstorms.



When the washing machine is installed, the main

socket must be within easy reach.



Do not use extensions or multiple sockets.



The power supply cable must never be bent or

dangerously compressed.



The power supply cable must only be replaced by

an authorised serviceman.

Warning! The company denies all liability if and when

these norms are not respected.

The first wash cycle

Once the appliance has been installed, and before

you use it for the first time, run a wash cycle with

detergent and no laundry, setting the 90°C programme

without a pre-wash cycle.
