Installation and removal

When the new washer-dryer arrives

Whether new or just transported to a new house, installation is extremely important for the correct functioning of your washer-dryer.

After removing the appliance from its packaging, check that it is intact. If in doubt, contact a qualified technician immediately.

The inside of the machine is supported, for transportation, by four screws on the back panel.

Before using the washer-dryer,remove the screws, remove the spacers together with the rubber tubes attached to them (keeping all the parts) and use the plastic plugs provided to fill in the holes.

Important: Use the cap (provided) to close the 3 holes which housed the stop pin, situated in the right- hand part of the lower back of the washer-dryer.

Levelling

The washer-dryer must be levelled appropriatey in order to guarantee its correct functioning.To level the appliance, the front feet must be adjusted; the angle of inclination, measured according to the worktop, must not exceed 2°. When placed on carpet, make sure the ventilation is not reduced.

Connection to the water mains

Both hot and cold water supplies are preferable and they should be between 34.5kN/m²(5lb/in²) and 1034.2kN/m² (150lb/in²) pressure. The hose having the red end fitting should be encountered between the hot supply and the threaded connection adjacent to the letter H on the rear of the machine. The hose having the white end fittings should be connected between the cold supply and the threaded connection adjacent to the letter C on the rear of the machine. Remember to insert a sealing washer at each connection to ensure watertight joints. Do not overtighten the connections by using tools -hand tight is sufficient topreventleaks.Itisgenerallymore convenient to have these supplies away from the sink taps. Where no suitable hot water supply is available or it does not meet these requirements, both inlet hoses may be connected to a cold supply by using two taps etc., or a « T» junction on the plumbing however, use of cold water only will increase programme times.

Note: the maximum temperature should not exceed 70°C (158°F).

Connecting the drain hose The drain hose (hooked pipe) is secured to the rear of the machine by support clips and may be routed to right or left as required.

The hook to be used in case the drain hose ends at a height below 60 cm.
