UNPACKING
• Do not attempt to operate the machine while any of the
packaging is still in place.
• Remove all packaging and dispose of it in a responsible
manner.
• Open the wash-tub lid and remove all the accessories
stored in the drum.
POSITIONING
• The machine should be installed in a well ventilated
place, away from direct sunlight.
• Hot and cold water taps should be located within 1 metre
of the inlet valves at the rear of the machine.
• Positioned the machine on a flat and stable uncarpeted
floor capable of supporting the fully loaded washer.
• An adjustable levelling foot is located at the right, lower
front of the machine and may be turned in or out to
achieve stability. An unstable machine will vibrate and
generate excessive noise.
• A plastic noise reduction panel is attached to the rear of
the machine. Remove this panel, tilt the machine for-
wards and slide the panel it into the retaining slots on
the base as per the directions engraved on the panel.
CONNECTING THE WATER INLET HOSES
• Connect the inlet hoses to threaded hot and cold water taps
and to the machine’s inlet fittings. Take care not to confuse
the hot and cold water inlets. The hot water inlet is col-
oured pink and the cold water inlet is coloured blue.
•
If only one water tap is available, connect the inlet hose to
the blue, cold water coupling.
•
Open the taps and check for leaks. Re-tighten couplings if
necessary.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
• The washing machine is designed to operate on a 230 Volt,
50 Hz, 15 Amp, AC power supply.
• The machine should be connected to an earthed 3 pin
wall socket.
•
If the power-cord should ever need replacing, use only a
genuine cord available from the nearest Defy Service
Centre.
Installation
The appliance must be
earthed
