3 Installation
Refer to the nearest Authorised Service Agent for installation of the machine. Review the information in the user manual and ensure that the electricity, water supply and water drainage systems are appropriate before calling an Authorized Service Agent. If they are not, call a qualified technician and plumber to have any necessary arrangements carried out.
Preparation of location, electrical, tap water and waste water installations of the machine are the customer's responsibility.
Warning: Installation and electrical connections of the machine must be carried out by an Authorized Service Agent. The Manufacturer shall not be held liable for damages that may arise.
Warning: Prior to installation, visually check if the machine has any defects on it. If so, do not have it installed. A damaged machine is a safety risk.
Ensure that the water inlet and discharge hoses as well as the power cable are not folded, pinched or crushed, during or after installation or cleaning procedures.
3.1 Appropriate installation location
•Place the machine on a rigid floor that has sufficient load carrying capacity. Do not place it on a long pile rug or similar surfaces.
•Do not place machine on the power cable.
•Do not install the product at places where the temperature may fall below 0ºC.
•Place the product at least 10 mm away from the edges of other furniture.
3.2Removing packaging reinforcement Tilt the machine backwards. Remove the packaging reinforcement by pulling on the ribbon.
3.3 Removing the transportation locks
PAGE 4
Warning: Do not remove the transportation locks before taking out the packaging reinforcement.
Warning: Remove the transportation safety bolts before operating the washing machine to avoid damaging the machine.
1.Loosen all the bolts with a suitable spanner until they rotate freely (C).
2.Remove transportation safety bolts by turning them gently.
3.Attach the plastic covers supplied in the User Manual bag into the holes on the rear panel. (P)
Keep the transportation safety bolts in a safe place to reuse when the washing machine needs to be moved again in the future.
Never move the product without the transportation safety bolts securely in place!
The water supply pressure required to run the machine is between 1 10 bars (0.1 – 1 MPa). It is necessary to have 10 – 80 litres of water flowing from a fully open tap per minute to have your machine run smoothly. Attach a pressure reducing valve if water pressure is higher.
If only the single (cold) waterinlet and not the hot water inlet is going to be used, the supplied stopper must be installed to the hot water valve before operating the machine. (Only applies to machines supplied with a blind stopper).
Warning: Models with a single water inlet should not be connected to the hot water tap. In such a case the laundry will be damaged or the machine will switch to protection mode and will not operate.
Warning: Do not use old or used water inlet hoses on the new product. It may cause stains on your laundry.
