Ariston ARMF 125 manual Installation, Unpacking and levelling

Installation

￿ This instruction manual should be kept in a safe

GB	place for future reference. If the washer-dryer is sold,
	transferred or moved, make sure that the instruction
	manual remains with the machine so that the new
	owner is able to familiarise himself/herself with its
	operation and features.
	￿ Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital
	information relating to the safe installation and
	operation of the appliance.
	Unpacking and levelling
	Unpacking
	1. Remove the washer-dryer from its packaging.
	2. Make sure that the washer-dryer has not been
	damaged during the transportation process. If it has
	been damaged, contact the retailer and do not
	proceed any further with the installation process.
	3. Remove the 4
	protective screws (used
	during transportation) and
	the rubber washer with
	the corresponding
	spacer, located on the
	rear part of the appliance
	(see figure).

4.Close off the holes using the plastic plugs provided.

5.Keep all the parts in a safe place: you will need them again if the washer-dryer needs to be moved to another location.

￿Packaging materials should not be used as toys for children.

Levelling

1.Install the washer-dryer on a flat sturdy floor, without resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets or anything else.

2. If the floor is not perfectly level, compen- sate for any unevenness by tightening or loosening the adjustable front feet (see figure); the angle of inclination, measured in relation to the worktop, must not exceed 2°.

Levelling the machine correctly will provide it with stability, help to avoid vibrations and excessive noise and prevent it from shifting while it is operating. If it is placed on carpet or a rug, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow a sufficient ventilation space underneath the washer-dryer.

Connecting the electricity and water supplies

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Insert seal A into the end of the inlet hose and screw the latter onto a cold water tap with a 3/4 gas threaded opening

A	(see figure).
	Before performing the
	connection, allow the
	water to run freely until it
	is perfectly clear.
	2. Connect the inlet hose
	to the washer-dryer by
	screwing it onto the
	corresponding water inlet
	of the appliance, which is
	situated on the top right-
	hand side of the rear part
	of the appliance (see
	figure).

3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over or bent.

￿The water pressure at the tap must fall within the values indicated in the Technical details table (see next page).

￿If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialised shop or an authorised technician.

￿Never use second hand hoses sets. Do not reuse hose sets from any previously installed washing machine.

￿Use the ones supplied with the machine.
