Installation
! Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for
future reference. Should the appliance be sold, tran-
sferred 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
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 pro-
tective screws and the
rubber bush with the
respective spacer, si-
tuated 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. Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs provided.
5. 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, com-
pensate for any une-
venness by tightening
or loosening the adju-
stable front feet (see
figure); the angle of
inclination, measu-
red according to the
worktop, must not
exceed 2°.
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 ¾ gas threa-
ded 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 wa-
ter 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.
