Installation

GB	￿ 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 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 three
	protective screws and
	the rubber washer with
	the respective spacer,
	situated on the rear of
	the appliance (see
	figure).

4.Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs provided.

5.Use the plug provided to seal the three holes

where the plug was housed, situated on the lower right-hand side on the rear of your appliance.

6.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, compen- sate 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°.

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 to the water mains using a gas 3/4

attachment, fitting the

rubber gasket and the filter supplied with the appliance and ensuring

that they are fimly

tightened to the taps. The water supply marked

C must be connected to the cold water tap; the pipe marked H must be connected to the hot water tap. Both pipes may be connected to the cold water tap using the special Y connection with multiple attachments, supplied with the appliance (see figure). Before making 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 water 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.
