After unpacking, make sure that the washing machine is undamaged. If in doubt, do not use the washing machine. Contact After-Sales Service or your local retailer.

Keep the packaging materials (plastic bags, polystyrene parts, etc.) out of reach of children; they are potentially dangerous.

2.Remove the transport bracket

The washing machine is fitted with transport screws and a transport bracket to prevent damage during transport. Before using the washing machine you must remove the transport bracket (see “Installation/Remove the transport bracket”).

3.Install the washing machine

Place the washing machine on a flat and stable floor surface.

Adjust the feet to ensure that the machine is stable and level (see “Installation/Adjust the feet”).

4.Water supply

Connect the water supply inlet hose in accordance with the regulations of your local water company (see “Installation/Connect the water inlet hose”).

Water supply: Cold water only

Tap:

3/4” threaded hose connection

Pressure:

100-1000 kPa (1-10 bar).

5.Drain hose

Connect the drain hose to the siphon or hook it over the edge of a sink with the “U” bend (see “Installation/Connect the water drain hose”).

If the washing machine is connected to a built-in drainage system, ensure the latter is equipped with a vent to avoid simultaneous loading and draining of water (siphoning effect).

6.Electrical connection

Electrical connections must be carried out by a qualified technician in compliance with the manufacturer’s instructions and the current standard safety regulations.

The technical data (voltage, power and fuses) are given on the rating plate on the rear of the washing machine.

The washing machine must be connected exclusively by means of a socket with an earth connection in accordance with current regulations. The washing machine must be earthed by law. The manufacturer declines all liability for damage to persons or property deriving directly or indirectly from failure to observe the directions.

Do not use extension leads or multi sockets.

Before any maintenance on the washing machine disconnect it from the mains supply.

Access to the mains plug or to disconnection from the mains supply via a double-pole switch must be ensured at all times following the installation.

Do not operate the washing machine if it has been damaged during transport. Inform the After-Sales Service.

Mains cable replacement is only to be carried out by After-Sales Service.

The washing machine must be connected to an effective earthing installation, in compliance with the regulations in force. In particular, washing machines installed in premises containing a shower or a bath must be protected by a differential residual current device of at least 30 mA. Earthing the washing machine is obligatory under the law. The manufacturer declines all liability for damage to persons or property deriving either directly or indirectly from failure to observe the directions above.

The washing machine may only be used in the household for the prescribed uses.
