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 Washer-
dryer.
Electric and water connections
Connecting the water inlet hose
NOTE: the seal is
included with the fill
hose on UK produced
models. So 1 should
read.
1. Connect the single end
hose connection onto
cold water tap with ¾
bsp thread etc. (see
figure).
Before making the connection, allow the water to
run freely until it is perfectly clear.
2. Connect the double
end hose connection to
the washer dryer. Screw
connections onto both
of the inlet valves
located at the top right-
hand side at the rear of
the appliance making
sure the flexible pipe
section of the "Y" is not
kinked (see figure).
! Although the two pipes are now connected to the
rear of the appliance, the washer dryer will draw
cold water as is required for both wash
programmes and tumble drying as required.
Note: This appliance SHOULD NOT BE
CONNECTED TO A HOT WATER SUPPLY.
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.
A
! 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 Washer-dryer 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
1. Unpack the Washer-dryer.
2. Check whether the Washer-dryer has been
damaged during transport. If this is the case, do
not install it and contact your retailer.
3. Remove the 2
protective screws and
the rubber bush with
the respective spacer,
situated on the rear of
the appliance (see also
the installation leaflet).
NB:The plastic spacers
may fall down inside the
machine once the bolt
has been removed, and will not interfere with the
operation of the machine.
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 Washer-dryer 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 Washer-dryer on a flat sturdy floor,
without resting it up against walls, furniture
cabinets or other.
2. If the floor is not
perfectly level, com-
pensate 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°.
