INFORMATION FOR THE CORRECT DISPOSAL OF WASTE
ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC APPLIANCES
When your appliance is of no further
use, it should not be disposed of
together with general domestic waste.
It can be taken, free of charge, to a
specific waste collection centre, run
by your local authority, or dealers who
provide this service.
Disposing of waste domestic appliances
separately means avoiding possible
negative consequences for the
environment and health, derived from
incorrect disposal. This will enable the
materials in them to be treated and
recycled, obtaining important savings in
energy and resources.
To highlight the obligation of
collaborating with selective waste
collection, the product is marked
with a symbol to warn against using
traditional containers for disposing of the
appliance.
For further information, contact
your local authority or the shop
where you purchased the
product.

2 Warnings
To avoid the risk of fire, electric
shocks, injury or damage when
using your washing machine, please
take the following precautions:
• This washing machine comes with
a manual that includes operating,
maintenance and installation
instructions. Please read all the
instructions before using the
washing machine.
• Do not wash items that have
previously been cleaned, washed,
soaked or treated with petrol,
solvents for dry cleaning, other
inflammable substances or
explosives, as they produce fumes
that could catch fire or explode.
• Do not add petrol, solvents for dry
cleaning or other inflammable or
explosive substances to the wash
water as they produce fumes that
could catch fire or explode.
• Do not repair or replace any part of
the washing machine or try to carry
out any type of servicing unless it is
recommended in the maintenance
instructions in the manual.
• Do not climb onto the machine or
stand on the open hatch door.
• Do not use an extension lead or
adaptor to connect your washing
machine to the mains supply.
• The machine should only be used
for the purpose it is designed for.
• Follow the washing instructions
recommended by the manufacturer
of the garment to be washed.
• Do not turn your washing machine
on until you are sure that:
- It has been installed in accordance
with the installation instructions.
- All the water, drainage, mains
electricity and earth connections
meet the local regulations and/or
other applicable regulations.
Intended use

3 Installation and assembly
Unpacking the washing
machine
• Remove the base, corner protectors
and top cover.
Unblocking the washing
machine
• Remove the screws holding the
plastic covers to the back of the
washing machine.
• Cover the holes with the plastic
covers you have just removed.
Do not throw the blocking screws
C
away. You may need to move the
washing machine at a later date.
Connection to the mains
water supply
The water supply hose is inside the
drum:
• Loosen and remove the 3 blocking
screws.
• Connect the bent end of the hose to
the threaded inlet of the electrovalve
located at the rear of the washing
machine.
EN
6
• Connect the other end of the hose
to the water intake. Then securely
tighten the connection nut.
• Make sure that the gasket is in
place.
It is important that the drain hose
C
bend is correctly fastened to the
outlet, to prevent any risk of it
becoming detached and causing
flooding.
If your washing machine has a hot
C
water intake, connect the hose with
the red threaded end to the hot
water tap, and to the electrovalve
with the red filter.
The washing machine must be
C
connected to the mains water
supply, using the new supply hoses
supplied with the appliance. Do not
use water supply hoses that have
been used before. For your washing
machine to work properly, the mains
water pressure must be between
0.05 and 1MPa (0.05 and 10 Kgr/
cm2).
Drainage connection
To make the washing machine ready
for use, make sure that tap water
supply and water drainage systems are
appropriate before calling the authorised
service agent. If they are not, call a
qualified plumber to have any necessary
arrangements carried out.
• It is recommended that you have a
fixed drainage outlet 50 to 70 cm
from the floor.
Avoid the drain hose being too tight,
kinked or restricted.
• The end of the drain hose
must be directly connected to
the wastewater drain or to the
washbasin.
• The end of the drain hose must
always be secured regardless of the
connection type.
Your floor will be flooded if the hose
A
comes out of its housing during
water discharge.
• In case the hose is routed at floor
level or close to the floor (less than
50 cm) and then rises higher, water
discharge becomes more difficult
and laundry will come out wetter
than normal. Therefore, follow the
heights described in the figure.
• To prevent flow of dirty water back
to the washing machine and to allow
for easy discharge, the end of the
hose must not be inserted in to the
drain more than 15 cm. If it is too
long, cut it shorter.
• The end of the hose should not be
bent, it should not be stepped on
and the hose must not be pinched
between the drain and the machine.
EN

• If the length of the hose is too short,
add an original extension hose. The
maximum length of the hose must
not be longer than 3.2 m from the
machine outlet. To avoid water leak
failures, the connection between the
extension hose and the drain hose
of the product must be well fitted
with an appropriate clamp so that it
will not come off and leak.
Levelling
Use the adjustable feet to level the
C
washing machine. This will reduce
the noise level and prevent it from
moving during use.
Do not bring the feet too far out, you
C
will achieve better stability.
You need to use a spanner for the
C
models that have a nut.
Electrical connection
Consult the specification plate located
on the hatch door of the washing
machine before making the electrical
connections. Ensure that the voltage
reaching the plug is the same as that on
the plate.
Do not remove the specification
plate. The information on it is
important.
It is very important to correctly earth
C
the washing machine. The electrical
installation, plug, socket, fuses
or automatic switch and counter
must be correctly specified for the
maximum power indicated on the
specifications plate.
Do not plug the washing machine
C
plug into the socket with wet or
damp hands.
To remove the power cord, pull on
C
the body of the plug.
