Installation

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. Connect the supply

pipe by screwing it to a

cold water tab using a

3/4 gas threaded

connection 

(see  figure).

Before  performing  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.

!

Ensure that the supply taps are allowing water

through. Old taps may seize in the closed position

and  thus  prevent  water  reaching  the  machine.

!

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

!

 

This a part of the

polystirene  base  and

should  have  stayed

intact  when  you

removed  the  base.

!

 

IMPORTANT  check

when  unpacking  your

machine.

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 

4

protective  screws  and

the rubber bush with the

respective  spacer,

situated on the rear of

the  appliance 

(see  also

the  installation  leaflet)

.

4. Do not remove external bar.

5. Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs provided.

6. 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, compensate 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°.
