Positioning

Install the machine on a flat hard floor.
Make sure that air circulation around the machine is not impeded by car-
pets, rugs etc.
• Before placing it on small tiles, apply a rubber coating.
• Never try to correct any unevenness in the floor by putting pieces of

wood, cardboard or similar materials under the machine.

• If it is impossible to avoid positioning the machine next to a gas cook-

er or coal-burning stove, an insulating panel (85x57 cm) covered with
aluminium foil on the side facing the cooker or stove, must be insert-
ed between the two appliances;

• The machine must not be installed in rooms where the temperature can

drop below 0.

• The water inlet hose and the drain hose must not be kinked.
• Please ensure that when the appliance is installed, it is easily accessi-

ble for the engineer in the event of a breakdown.

Levelling

Carefully level by screwing the adjustable
feet in or out. Never place cardboard, wood
or similar materials under the machine to
compensate for any unevenness in the floor.

Water inlet

Connect the water
inlet hose to a
separate tap  with
a 3/4" thread.
The other end of
the inlet hose
which connects to
the machine can be
turned in any
direction. Simply
loosen the fitting, rotate the hose and retighten the fitting, making sure
there are no water leaks.
The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is too short and you do not
wish to move the tap, you will have to purchase a new, longer hose spe-
cially designed for this type of use.
