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.

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.

Connect the inlet hose to the

threaded connector on the

machine rear.

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.

If the drains hose empties into a

tub or sink then fit the plastic gui-

de and secure it to the tap.

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.
