WARNINGS
It is important that this instruction book be kept
with the appliance for future reference. If you sell
or give the appliance away, make sure that the
book is passed to the new owners so that they
can familiarise themselves with its operation and
relevant warnings.
The following warnings are provided in the interests of overall safety. You must read them carefully before installing or using the appliance.
■
When unpacking the appliance, check that it is not
damaged. If in doubt, do not use it and contact the
Service Centre.
INSTALLATION
■
All internal packing must be removed before using
the appliance. Serious damage may be caused to
the machine or adjacent furniture if the protective
transit devices are not removed or are not completely removed. Refer to the relevant paragraph in
the instruction book.
■
Any electrical work required to install this appliance
must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
■
Any plumbing work required to install this appliance must be carried out by a qualified plumber.
■
After having installed the machine, check that it is
not standing on its electrical supply cable.
■
If the appliance is placed on a carpeted floor,
ensure that air can circulate freely between the
adjustable feet and the floor.
USE
■
This appliance is designed for domestic use. It
must not be used for purposes other than those for
which it was designed.
■
Do not overload the appliance. Follow the instructions in the instruction book.
■
Only wash fabrics which are designed to be
machine washed. Follow the instructions on each
garment label.
■
Make sure that all pockets are empty. Objects such
as coins, safety pins, pins and screws can cause
extensive damage.
■
Do not machine wash garments saturated with
petroleum, methylated spirits, trichlorethylene, etc.
If such fluids have been used to remove stains
prior to washing, wait until they have completely
evaporated from the fabric before placing garments
in the appliance.
■
Place small items such as socks, belts, etc. in a
cloth bag or pillowcase to prevent them getting
trapped between the drum and the tub.
■
Use only the recommended quantities of fabric softener. An excessive amount could damage the laundry.
■
Leave the porthole door slightly ajar when the
appliance is not in use. This preserves the door
seal and prevents the formation of musty smells.
■
Always check that water has emptied out before
opening the door. If not, drain the water following
the instructions in the instruction book.
■
Always unplug the appliance and shut the water
tap after use.

■
This appliance is designed to be used by adults.
Children must not be allowed to touch the controls
or play with the product.
■
During high temperature wash cycles the glass
door becomes very hot. Do not touch it.

>PS<= polystyrene
>PP<=polypropylene
■
When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the
power supply cable and make the door closing
device inoperative to avoid it becoming a death
trap for a child.

INSTALLATION
Transit devices
All transit bolts and packing must be removed before
using the appliance.
Proceed as follows:
Using a spanner, unscrew and remove the
rear right-hand bolt and
lay the machine on its
back, taking care not to
squash the hoses. This
can be avoided by placing one of the corner
packing pieces between
P0255
the machine and the
floor.

P0802
Remove the polystyrene blocks from the underside of
the machine and release the two plastic bags by
removing the adhesive strip. Unscrew and remove the
feet. Carefully remove the right-hand bag (1) then the
left-hand bag (2) by pulling them towards the centre of
the machine.
P0233
Fit the grid on the bottom
of the machine and re-fit
the feet.
Positioning
Install the machine on a flat hard floor.
Make sure that air circulation around the machine is
not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that the
machine does not touch the wall or other kitchen
units.
Carefully level by screwing the adjustable feet in or
out. Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials
under the machine to compensate for any unevenness in the floor.
After having levelled the machine, tighten the lock
nuts.

Water inlet
Connect the water inlet hose to a tap with a 3/4"
thread after having inserted the small filter “A” supplied with the machine.
The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is too short
and you do not wish to move the tap, you will have to
purchase a new, longer hose specially designed for
this type of use.

Set the machine upright and remove the two remaining bolts from the back.
Pull out the three plastic pegs from the holes into
which the bolts were fitted.
Plug the open holes with the plugs which you will find
on the back of the machine.
Note: You are advised to keep all transit devices so
that they can be refitted if the machine ever has to be
transported again.

The other end of the inlet hose which connects to the
machine can be turned in any direction. Simply loosen
the fitting, rotate the hose and retighten the fitting,
making sure there are no water leaks.

Water drainage
The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three
ways:
Hooked over the edge
of a sink using the
plastic hose guide supplied with the machine.
In this case, make sure
the end cannot come
unhooked when the
machine is emptying.
P0022
piece of string or attaching it to the wall.
In a sink drain pipe branch. This branch must be
above the trap so that the bend is at least 60 cm
above the ground.
Directly into a drain pipe at a height of not less than
60 cm and not more than 90 cm.
The end of the drain hose must always be ventilated,
i.e. the inside diameter of the drain pipe must be larger than the outside diameter of the drain hose.
The drain hose must not be kinked. Run it along the
floor; only the part near the drainage point must be
raised.
This could be done by
tying it to the tap with a
Electrical connection
This machine is designed to operate on a 220-230 V,
single-phase, 50 Hz supply.
Check that your domestic electrical installation can
take the maximum load required (2.2 kW), also taking
into account any other appliances in use.
Connect the machine to an earthed socket, in accordance with current wiring regulations.
The manufacturer declines any responsibility for
damage or injury through failure to comply with
the above safety precaution.
