functioning of your washing machine.

hose ends at a height below 60 cm.

If the drains hose empties into a
tub or sink then fit the plastic
guide and secure it to the tap.

Electric connection

Before connecting the appliance
to the electric socket, be sure
that:
1) the electric socket is able to

s u s t a i n   t h e   a p p l i a n c e ’s
m a x i m u m   p o w e r   l o a d
indicated on the data plate
and in compliance with the
law;

2) the supply voltage is included

within the values indicated
on the data plate;

3) the socket is compatible with

the appliance’s plug. If not,
do not use adapters, but
replace either the socket or
the plug;

4) electric household appliances

must be equipped with an
“earthing” system.

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 washing machine,

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
washing machine.

Levelling

The washing machine must be
levelled appropriatey in order to
guarantee its correct functioning.
To level the appliance, the front
feet must be adjusted; the angle
o f   i n c l i n a t i o n ,   m e a s u r e d
according to the worktop, must
not exceed 2°. When placed on
carpet, make sure the ventilation
is not reduced.

The front feet are adjustable.

Connection to the water
mains

Water pressure must range within
the values indicated on the data
plate on the rear of your washing
machine. If the water pipes are
new or left unused, then before
connecting the machine run the
water until clear to remove
debris. Connect the inlet hose to
a cold water tap having a ¾ “ BSP
thread. Ensure that the rubber
sealing washers are fitted at each
end of the inlet hose, with the fitter
washer at the tap end.

Connecting the drain
hose

There are two hooks (right or
left) on the rear of your washing
machine to which the drain hose
is to be fixed. Insert the other
end in a stand pipe or place it on
the edge of a sink or tub avoiding
excessive kinks and bending. It
should be placed at a height
ranging from 60 to 100 cm. If it
is necessary to fix the end of the
hose at a height below 60 cm
from the ground, it must be fixed
in the appropriate hook placed
on the upper part of the back
panel.
