Installation
! Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future GB reference. Should the appliance be sold, transferred or moved, make sure the instruction manual accompanies
the Washer-dryer to inform the new owner as to its operation and features.
! Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital information on installation, use and safety.
Unpacking and levelling
Unpacking
1.Unpack the Washer-dryer.
2.Check whether the Washer-dryer has been damaged during transport. If this is the case, do not install it and contact your retailer.
3. Remove the 4 pro-
tective screws and the
rubber bush with the
respective spacer, situated on the rear of the
appliance (see also the installation leaflet).
NB:The plastic spacers
may fall down inside the machine once the bolt has been removed, and
will not interfere with the operation of the machine.
4.Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs provided.
5.Keep all the parts: you will need them again if the Washer-dryer needs to be moved to another location.
! Packaging materials are not children’s toys.
Levelling
Your machine may make a considerable amount of noise if the two front feet have not been adjusted correctly.
1. Install the Washer-dryer on a flat sturdy floor, without resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets or other.
2. If the floor is not perfectly level, compensate for any unevenness by tightening or loosening the adjustable front feet (see figure); the angle of inclination, measured according to the worktop, must not exceed 2°.
Levelling your appliance correctly will provide it with stability and avoid any vibrations, noise and shifting during operation. If it is placed on a fitted or loose carpet, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow enough room for ventilation beneath the Washer-dryer.
Electric and water connections
Connecting the water inlet hose
1. Connect the supply pipe by screwing it to a cold water tab using a
3/4 gas threaded connection (see figure).
Before performing the connection, allow the water to run freely until it is perfectly clear.
2. Connect the other end of the water inlet hose to the Washer-dryer,
screwing it onto the appliance’s cold water inlet, situated on the top righthand side on the rear of the appliance (see figure).
3. Make sure there are no kinks or bends in the hose.
!The water pressure at the tap must be within the values indicated in the Technical details table
(on the next page).
!If the water inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist store or an authorised serviceman.
!Ensure that the supply taps are allowing water through. Old taps may seize in the closed position and thus prevent water reaching the machine.

Connecting the drain hose
65 - 100 cm |
Connect the drain hose, without bending it, to a draining duct or a wall drain situated between 65 and 100 cm from the floor;
Where it connects to the waste water pipe cut end off spigot or remove the blanking cap
The drain hose may be connected to an undersink trap. Before connecting the drain hose from the machine ensure that any blanks or removable ends have been taken off the spigot.
If it is place over the edge of a basin or sink be sure the free end of the hose should not be underwater.
! We advise against the use of hose extensions; in case of absolute need, the extension must have the same diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length.
Ensure that if the drain hose is pushed into a standpipe, that the end does not go down more than 15cms (6 inches). If the hose is pushed down too far, this may cause the machine to self -syphon ie. continuously empty as it is filling.
Electric connection
Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, make sure that:
• the socket is earthed and in compliance with the applicable law;
•the socket is able to sustain the appliance’s maximum power load indicated in the Technical details table (see page 5);
• the supply voltage is included within the values
indicated on the Technical details table GB (see page 5);
•the socket is compatible with the washing machine’s plug. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.
Your appliance is now supplied with a 13 amp fused plug it can be plugged into a 13 amp socket for immediate use. Before using the appliance please read the instructions below.
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
Replacing the fuse:
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be used, and the fuse cover re-fitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse covers:
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the correct colour as indicated by the coloured marking or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug. Replacements can be obtained directly from your nearest Service Depot.
Removing the plug:
If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug and you should wish to re-route the mains cable through partitions, units etc., please ensure that either:
the plug is replaced by a fused 13 ampere re-wearable plug bearing the BSI mark of approval.
or:
the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp cable outlet, controlled by a switch, (in compliance with BS 5733) which is accessible without moving the appliance.
Disposing of the plug:
Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, you make the pins unusable so that it cannot be accidentally inserted into a socket.

|
a 13 amp fuse, either in the plug or adaptor or at the |

|
distribution board. |

|
your machine, consult a qualified electrician before use. |

The first wash cycle
Once the appliance has been installed, and before you use it for the first time, run a wash cycle with detergent and no laundry, using the wash cycle 1.
Disposing of the appliance:
When disposing of the appliance please remove the plug by cutting the mains cable as close as possible to the plug body and dispose of it as described above.
!The Washer-dryer should not be installed in an outdoor environment, not even when the area is sheltered, because it may be very dangerous to leave it exposed to rain and thunderstorms.
!When the Washer-dryer is installed, the mains socket must be within easy reach.
!Do not use extensions or multiple sockets.
!The power supply cable must never be bent or dangerously compressed.
!The power supply cable must only be replaced by an authorised serviceman.
Warning! The company denies all liability if and when these norms are not respected.

Instructions for the fitter
GB
Mounting the wooden panel onto the door and inserting the machine into cabinets:
In the case where the machine must be shipped for final installation after the wooden panel has been mounted, we suggest leaving it in its original packaging. The packaging was designed to make it possible to mount the wooden panel onto the machine without removing it completely (see figures below).
The wooden panel that covers the face of the machine must not be less than 18 mm in thickness and can be hinged on either the right or left. For the sake of practicality when using the machine, we recommend that the panel be hinged on the same side as the door for the machine itself - the left.
