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 con-

tain vital information relating to the safe instal-

lation 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

protective screws

(used during transpor-

tation) and the rubber

washer with the cor-

responding 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.

Levelling

1. Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy

floor, without resting it up against walls, furni-

ture 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. Connect the inlet

hose by screwing it to

a cold water tap using

a 3/4 gas threaded

connection (see figu-

re).

Before performing the

connection, allow the

water to run freely until

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 range of values indicated in the Technical

data 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.
