Installation and removal
When the new
washer arrives
Whether new or just transported to a new house,
installation is extremely important for the correct
functioning of your washing machine.
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
of inclination, measured
according to the worktop, must
not exceed 2°. When placed on
carpet, make sure the ventilation
is not reduced.
The front feet are adjustable.
Retain the transit screws,
spacers and washers.
Should you move house
then these should be
replaced to support the
inside of the machine to
prevent damage when
transporting the machine.
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.
The hook to be used in case the drain
hose ends at a height below 60 cm.
If the drains hose empties into a
tub or sink then fit the plastic gui-
de and secure it to the tap.
The guide for draining into tubs and
sinks.
The end of the drain hose must
be positioned so that it cannot
become submerged.
Extensions are unadvisable. In
case of absolute need, the
extension must have the same
diameter as the original hose and
must not exceed 150 cm. In case
of wall draining pipes, their
efficiency must be checked by
a qualified technician. If the
dwelling is on one of the upper
floors of a building, there may be
drain trap problems causing the
washing machine to load and
unload water continuously.
In order to avoid such an
inconvenience, special anti-drain
trap valves are available in
shops.
Electric connection
Before connecting the appliance
to the electric socket, be sure that:
1) the electric socket is able to
sustain the appliance's
maximum power
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.
