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 4 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. Connect the supply pipe by screwing it to a cold water tap using a ¾ gas threaded connection (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 righthand 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.

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, place |
|
the drain hose over |
|
the edge of a wa- |
|
shbasin or bathtub, |
|
by fastening the |
|
guide |
(which |
can be purchased at |
|
the technical assi- |
|
stance centre) 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, |
GB |
||
the electricity socket must be within easy reach. |
|||
|
|||
!Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.
!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 2.

Care and maintenance
GB |
Cutting off the water and electri- |
|
city supplies |
||
|
||
|
• Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle. |
|
|
This will limit wear on the hydraulic system |
|
|
inside the washing machine and help to pre- |
|
|
vent leaks. |
|
|
• Unplug the washing machine when cleaning |
|
|
it and during all maintenance work. |
|
|
Cleaning the washer-dryer |
|
|
The outer parts and rubber components of the |
|
|
appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth |
|
|
soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use |
|
|
solvents or abrasives. |
|
|
Cleaning the detergent dispenser |
|
|
drawer |
|
|
Remove the dispenser |
|
|
by raising it and pul- |
|
|
ling it out (see figure). |
|
|
Wash it under running |
|
|
water; this operation |
|
|
should be repeated |
|
|
frequently. |
To access the pre-chamber:
1. using a screwdriver, remove the cover panel on the lower front part of the washing machine (see figure);
2. unscrew the lid by rotating it anticlockwise (see figure): a little water may trickle out. This is perfectly normal;
3.clean the inside thoroughly;
4.screw the lid back on;
5.reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are securely in place before you push it onto the appliance.
Caring for the door and drum of your appliance
•Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to prevent unpleasant odours from forming.
Cleaning the pump
The washing machine is fitted with a self-clea- ning pump which does not require any maintenance. Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons) may fall into the pre-chamber which protects the pump, situated in its bottom part.
! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug the appliance.
Checking the water inlet hose
Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there are any cracks, it should be replaced immediately: during the wash cycles, water pressure is very strong and a cracked hose could easily split open.
! Never use second-hand hoses.
