Ariston ARF105 Instructions for Use

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.

3. Remove the 3 protective screws (used during transportation) and the rubber washer with the corresponding spacer, located on the rear part of the appliance (see figure).

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. 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 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.

Connecting the electricity and water supplies

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Insert seal A into the end of the inlet hose and screw the latter onto a cold water tap with a 3/4 gas threaded opening

 

 

A

(see figure).

 

 

 

 

 

 

Before performing the

 

 

 

connection, allow the

 

 

 

 

 

 

water to run freely until it

 

 

 

is perfectly clear.

 

 

 

2. Connect the inlet hose

 

 

 

 

 

 

to the washing machine

 

 

 

by screwing it onto the

 

 

 

corresponding water inlet

 

 

 

of the appliance, which is

 

 

 

situated on the top right-

 

 

 

hand side of the rear part

 

 

 

of the appliance (see

 

 

 

figure).

 

 

 

 

3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over or bent.

The water pressure at the tap must fall within the values indicated in the Technical details table (see next page).

If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialised shop or an authorised technician.

Never use second-hand hoses.

Use the ones supplied with the machine.

2

Connecting the drain hose

65 - 100 cm

Connect the drain hose, without bending it, to a drainage duct or a wall drain located at a height between 65 and 100 cm from the floor;

alternatively, rest it on the side of a washbasin or bathtub, fastening the duct supplied to the tap (see figure). The free end of the hose should not be underwater.

We advise against the use of hose extensions; if it is absolutely necessary, the extension must have the same diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length.

Electrical connections

Before plugging the appliance into the electricity socket, make sure that:

the socket is earthed and complies with all applicable laws;

the socket is able to withstand the maximum power load of the appliance as indicated in the Technical data table (see opposite);

the power supply voltage falls within the values indicated in the Technical data table (see opposite);

the socket is compatible with the plug of the washing machine. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.

The washing machine must not be installed outdoors, even in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to rain, storms and other weather conditions.

When the washing machine has been installed, the electricity socket must be within easy reach.

Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

GB

The cable should not be bent or compressed.

The power supply cable must only be replaced by authorised technicians.

Warning! The company shall not be held responsible in the event that these regulations are not respected.

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.
