￿ Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for

GB

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 4

 

protective screws and

 

the rubber bush with

 

the respective spacer,

 

situated on the rear of

 

the appliance (see also

 

the installation leaflet).

 

NB: The plastic spacers

 

may fall down inside the

 

machine once the bolt

 

has been removed, and will not interfere with the

 

operation of the machine.

 

4. Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs provided.

 

5. 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. 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

 

 

A

mouth (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.

￿Ensure that the supply taps are allowing water through. Old taps may seize in the closed position and thus prevent water reaching the machine.
