Adjust the feet

Install the washing machine on a level surface, near to electrical, water and drain connections.

If the floor is uneven, adjust the feet (do not insert pieces of wood, cardboard etc. under the feet):

1.Loosen the locknut using the wrench provided.

2.Adjust the height of the foot by hand.

3.Retighten the locknut by turning it anti-clockwise.

Make sure that all feet are resting correctly on the floor and that the washing machine is perfectly level and stable (use a spirit level).

The washing machine can be installed in an area 40 cm wide and 63 cm deep.

Note: if you install the machine on thick carpet, adjust the feet to ensure that there is sufficient space under the machine for the air to circulate.

Connect the water inlet hose.

1.Carefully screw the water inlet hose onto the tap by hand.

2.Make sure there are no kinks in the hose.

3.Check water-tightness of tap and washing machine connections by turning the tap completely on.

If the hose is too short, replace it with a suitable length of pressure resistant hose (minimum 1000 kPa - EN 50084 approved type).

Periodically check the hose for brittleness and cracks.

Replace if necessary.

The washing machine can be connected without a non-return valve.

For Great Britain & Ireland only:

1.Carefully screw both water inlet hoses:

hot (see A) fill hose,

and cold (see B) fill hose.

The warm water inlet temperature must not exceed 60° C.
