Installation
! This instruction manual should be kept in a safe
place for future reference. If the washing machine
is sold, transferred or moved, make sure that the
instruction manual remains with the machine so
that the new owner is able to familiarise himself/
herself with its operation and features.
! Read these instructions carefully: they contain
vital information relating to the safe installation
and operation of the appliance.
Unpacking and levelling
Unpacking
1. Remove the washing machine from its packaging.
2. Make sure that the washing machine has
not been damaged during the transportation
process. If it has been damaged, contact the
retailer and do not proceed any further with the
installation process.
3. Remove the 4 protec-
tive screws (used during
transportation) and the
rubber washer with the
corresponding spacer,
located on the rear part of
the appliance (see figure).
4. Close off the holes
using the plastic plugs
provided.
5. Keep all the parts in a safe place: you will
need them again if the washing machine ne-
eds to be moved to another location.
! Packaging materials should not be used as
toys for children.
! Every time the machine needs to be tilted or
moved, the screws, the rubber washer and
the spacer should be re-fitted at points A and
B, in order to ensure the internal components
remain intact.
Remember to remove these elements afterwards.
Levelling
1. Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy
floor, without resting it up against walls, furnitu-
re cabinets or anything else.
2. If the floor is not
perfectly level, com-
pensate for any une-
venness by tightening
or loosening the
adjustable front feet
(see figure); the angle
of inclination, measu-
red in relation to the
worktop, must not
exceed 2°.
Levelling the machine correctly will provide
it with stability, help to avoid vibrations and
excessive noise and prevent it from shifting
while it is operating. If it is placed on carpet or
a rug, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow
a sufficient ventilation space underneath the
washing machine.
Connecting the electricity and
water supplies
Connecting the water inlet hose
1. Insert seal A into
the end of the inlet
hose and screw the
latter onto a cold wa-
ter tap with a 3/4 gas
threaded mouth (see
figure).
Before making the
connection, allow the
water to run freely un-
til it is perfectly clear.
2. Connect the inlet
hose to the washing
machine by screwing
it onto the correspon-
ding water inlet of the
appliance, which is
situated on the top
right-hand side of the
rear part of the ap-
pliance (see figure).
3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over
or bent.
! The water pressure at the tap must fall within
the values indicated in the Technical details
table (see next page).
! If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a
specialised shop or an authorised technician.
! Never use second-hand hoses.
! Use the ones supplied with the machine.
