Installation

! This instruction manual should be kept in a safe
GB
place for future reference. If the washing machine
is sold, transferred or moved, make sure that the
instruction manual remains with the machine so
that the new owner is able to familiarise himself/
herself with its operation and features.
! Read these instructions carefully: they contain
vital information relating to the safe installation
and operation of the appliance.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking
1. Remove the washing machine from its
packaging.
2. Make sure that the washing machine has
not been damaged during the transportation
process. If it has been damaged, contact the
retailer and do not proceed any further with the
installation process.
4. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs
provided.
5. Keep all the parts in a safe place: you will need
them again if the washing machine needs to be
moved to another location.
! Packaging materials should not be used as
toys for children.
Levelling
1. Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy
floor, without resting it up against walls, furniture
cabinets or anything else.
2
3 . R e m o v e t h e 3
protective screws (used
during transportation)
and the rubber washer
with the corresponding
spacer, located on
the rear part of the
appliance (see figure).
2. If the floor is not
p e r f e c t l y l e v e l ,
c o m p e n s a t e f o r
any unevenness by
tightening or loosening
the adjustable front feet
(see figure); the angle of
inclination, measured in
relation to the worktop,
must not exceed 2°.
Levelling the machine correctly will provide
it with stability, help to avoid vibrations and
excessive noise and prevent it from shifting
while it is operating. If it is placed on carpet or
a rug, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow
a sufficient ventilation space underneath the
washing machine.

water supplies

specialised shop or an authorised technician.
! Never use second-hand hoses.
! Use the ones supplied with the machine.
1. Connect the inlet
hose by screwing it to
a cold water tap using
a 3/4 gas threaded

water to run freely until
it is perfectly clear.
2. Connect the inlet
hose to the washing
machine by screwing it
onto the corresponding
