3.Important: Tighten all lock nuts up again.

Connecting to the water supply.

Important:

•The water supply pressure required to run the machine must be 1-10 bar (0,1 – 1 MPa).

•Connect the special hoses supplied with the machine to the water intake valves on the machine.

•If you are going to use your double waterinlet machine as a single (cold) water-inlet unit, you must install the stopper*, supplied with your machine to the hot water valve.

•If you want to use both water inlets of the product, you can connect the hot water hose after removing the stopper and gasket group from the hot water valve.

* Applies for the products supplied with a blind stopper group.

•Models with a single water inlet should not be connected to the hot water tap.

When returning the appliance to its place after maintenance or cleaning, care should be taken not to fold, squeeze or block the hoses.

Connecting to the drain

The water discharge hose can be attached to the edge of a washbasin or bathtub. The drain hose should be firmly fitted into the drain as to not get out of its housing.

Important:

•The end of the drain hose must be directly connected to the wastewater drain or to the washbasin.

•The hose should be attached to a height of at least 40 cm, and 100 cm at most.

•In case the hose is elevated after laying it on the floor level or close to the ground (less than 40 cm above the ground), water discharge becomes more difficult and the laundry may come out wet.

•The hose should be pushed into the drainage for more than 15 cm. If it is too long you may have it shortened.

•The maximum length of the combined hoses must not be longer than 3.2 m.

Ouvrir les sécurités de transport

ALes vis de sécurité réservées au transport doivent être enlevées avant de faire

fonctionner le lave-linge ! Dans le cas contraire, la machine sera endommagée !

1.Desserrez toutes les vis à l’aide d’une clé jusqu’à ce que celles-ci tournent librement (« C »)

2.Enlevez les vis de sécurité en les dévissant à la main et en les tournant doucement.

3.Insérez les cache-orifices (fournis dans le sachet avec le manuel) dans les trous à l’arrière du panneau. (« P »)

CConservez les vis de sécurité soigneusement afin de les réutiliser au cas où vous aurez besoin de transporter le lave-

linge ultérieurement.

CNe jamais déplacer l'appareil sans que les vis de sécurité réservées au transport ne soient correctement fixées!

Ajuster les pieds

A N’utiliser aucun outil pour dévisser les contre-écrous. Sinon, vous pouvez les endommager.

1.Dévissez manuellement (à la main) les contre-écrous sur les pieds.

2.Ajustez-les jusqu’à ce que la machine soit à niveau et équilibré.

3.Important : Resserrez tous les contreécrous.

Raccorder l’arrivée d’eau.

Important:

•La pression d’eau à l’arrivée, requise pour faire fonctionner la machine, doit être de 1-10 bar (0,1 – 1 Mpa).

•Raccordez les tuyaux spéciaux fournis avec la machine aux vannes d’admission d’eau de la machine.

•Pour éviter qu’une fuite d’eau ne se produise aux points de raccordement, des joints en caoutchouc (4 joints pour les modèles à double admission d’eau et 2 joints pour les autres modèles) sont

attachés aux tuyaux. Ces joints doivent être utilisés sur le robinet et aux extrémités de raccordement des tuyaux L’embout mâle du tuyau muni d’un filtre doit être raccordé au robinet et l’embout coudé doit être attaché à la machine. Serrez correctement les écrous du tuyau à la main ; ne jamais utiliser de clé à molette pour le faire.

•Les modèles à simple admission d’eau ne

doivent pas être connectés au robinet d’eau chaude.

Au moment de retourner l’appareil à sa place après entretien ou nettoyage, des précautions doivent être prises afin de ne pas déplier, coincer, ou bloquer les tuyaux.

Raccorder le conduit d’évacuation

Le tuyau de vidange peut être attaché au bord d’un évier ou d’une baignoire. Le tuyau de vidange doit être correctement raccordé au conduit d’évacuation de sorte qu’il ne puisse pas sortir de son logement.

Important :

•L’extrémité du tuyau de vidange doit être directement raccordée au tuyau

d’évacuation des eaux usées ou au lavabo.

•Le tuyau doit être attaché à une hauteur comprise entre 40 et 100 cm.

•Si le tuyau est élevé après l’avoir posé sur le niveau du sol ou près de celui-ci (moins de 40 cm au-dessus du sol), l’évacuation d’eau devient plus difficile et le linge peut se mouiller.

•Le tuyau doit être inséré dans le conduit d’évacuation à une distance de plus de 15 cm. Si cette distance s’avère trop longue,
