Installation Instructions

Installation / Removal

n1. Unpacking Your Washer-Dryer

•Carefully remove the packing materials with care not to damage the drain hose and power cord that are shipped installed on the machine. Check that the machine is intact. Report any damage immediately.

•Position the washer-dryer near the desired installation position.

WARNING: Plastic bags, Styrofoam, nails and other packaging

!parts are not children’s toys and can be potentially dangerous. Destroy the carton and plastic bags after the washer-dryer has been unpacked.

n2. Remove the Transit Screws/Spacers

•For transportation, the inside of the machine is supported by screws, rubber grommets and spacers on the back panel. Before using the washer-dryer, these items MUST be removed.

IMPORTANT: Transit screws and spacers must be removed

!before operating the machine to allow proper operation of the machine and to prevent damage to the appliance.

• After positioning the washer-dryer near the installation location, remove the four screws (Fig.1), with the rubber grommets and plastic spacers that are attached to them.

•Use the plastic plugs (provided in

the accessories bag) to fill in the holes.

IMPORTANT: Retain the transit screws, spacers and rubber

!tubes. These items should be reinstalled to prevent damage if or when you transport the machine in the future.

n3. Connecting Water Inlet

•If the water pipes you will be connecting to are new or unused, run the water until clear to remove any debris that could clog the water valve screens or valves before connecting the machine. NOTE: Supply shut-off valves should be easily accessible.

IMPORTANT: Water pressure MUST range within the values ! indicated on the “Technical Data” chart (p. 1).

•Included in the accessories supplied with your machine are 2 inlet hoses with 4 rubber washers preinstalled. Check that the rubber washers are installed in the ends of the inlet

hoses to make a water tight seal at each connection point.

•Connect the straight ends of the

water inlet hoses to the supply taps that have ¾” BSP thread (standard hose bib).

•Connect the 90º angled ends (20 mm thread) of these hoses to the

inlet valves on the back of the machine (Fig. 2). NOTE: Water Inlet valves are color coded: Red (Hot) & White (Cold).

IMPORTANT: Do not use excessive force. Damage to the

!couplings can result. The couplings should be tightened by hand; a tool should only be used if a leak occurs.

Optional Single Faucet Hook-Up It is possible to run the machine on cold water only, but a water supply must be connected to each inlet valve. To do this, we suggest you use a “Y” connector (contact Splendide). Connect the “Y” connector to a tap. After checking that the 4 rubber washers (provided) are installed in the ends of the inlet hoses, connect the straight ends of the hoses to the “Y” connector (Fig. 3). Then connect the

90º angled ends of these hoses to the inlet valves on the back of the machine (Fig. 2). NOTE: When the machine is connected to a single faucet, the water temp. for the wash/rinse settings is regulated by the temperature YOU set at the faucet. If hot or warm water is used for washing, it is important to turn the faucet to COLD after the wash cycle. Cold water is essential to your machines’ condensation drying process.

n4. Water Drainage

•It is possible for the water to be discharged into a sink, standpipe or drainpipe, but an air break must be available at a min. 20" height to prevent the machine from siphoning (Fig. 6).

Standpipe Drain System - Installations require a minimum 1 ¼” (3.2 cm) diameter standpipe with a minimum carry away capacity of 7 gallons (26 liters) per minute.

Wall or Floor Standpipe Drain System - The top of the standpipe must be between 25" (62 cm) - 34" (86 cm) from the bottom of the washer (Fig. 4).
