! This instruction manual should be kept in a safe place for

future reference. If the washing machine is sold, transferred

 

 

or moved, make sure that the instruction manual remains

 

with the machine so that the new owner is able to familiari-

 

se himself/herself with its operation and features.

 

! Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital infor-

 

mation relating to the safe installation and operation of the

 

appliance.

 

Unpacking and levelling

 

Unpacking

 

1. Remove the washing machine from its packaging.

 

2. Make sure that the washing machine 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 tran-

 

sportation) and the rubber

 

washer with the correspon-

 

ding 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 washing machine needs to be moved to ano- ther location.

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

Levelling

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

2.If the floor is not perfectly level, compensate for any unevenness by tightening

or loosening the adjusta- ble 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 washing machine.

Connecting the electricity and water supplies

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Connect the supply pipe by screwing it to a cold water tap using a ¾ gas threaded connection (see figure).

Before performing the con- nection, allow the water to run freely until it is perfectly clear.

2. Connect the inlet hose to the washing machine by screwing it onto the corre- sponding water inlet of the appliance, which is situa- ted 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 page 5).

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

!Never use second-hand hoses.

!Use the ones supplied with the machine.
