• The manufacturer fits all the machines with an earth
connection.
Ensure that the electrical installation has an earth connection
and that it is connected; if not, call a qualified Service Center.
The earth connection is essential for user safety as it elimi-
nates the risk of electrical discharge.
• Power sockets should be in easily accessible places so that
the washing machine can be unplugged in case of any
problems.
• If the electric cable is damaged replace with an original set
(cable and plug) supplied by the manufacturer or official after-
sales service.
note:
In the event that it is necessary to replace the power cable,
make sure that you comply with the following colour-code chart
during the wiring:
blue neutral
brown phase
Yellow-green earth
