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 three
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.
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. 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.
