INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Positioning

After your washing machine has been placed in the desired
location, level it by means of the front left foot, then the counter
nut must be locked by means of the special key provided.

Warning: if the machine is not perfectly leveled, it will be
unstable, noisy and may lead to malfunctions and broken
parts. Do not place the machine on mats or carpets.

Water connection

COLD WATER HOSE = WHITE HOSE
HOT WATER HOSE = BLACK HOSE

Connect the water supply hoses to hot & cold water taps with a 3/4" (gas
type) fitting, insert the rubber sealing washers supplied with the machine
and fully tighten the ring nuts. If the water tap is new or has not been
used for a long time it is recommended to let the water run for a while
before completing the connection. Connect the other end of the water
supply hose to the machine and again insert the rubber washer between
the hose and the solenoid valve fitting.

Drain Hose

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe (with a minimum
internal diameter of 4cm) or hook it on a sink or bathtub,
without crimping or creating any sharp curves. The hose should
be positioned at a height ranging from a minimum of 60cm to
a maximum of 100cm as shown in the figure.

Electrical Connection

Make sure that the electrical system can support the maximum current load indicated on the
rating plate on the rear side of the machine. The washing machine should be connected to
an electrical grounded outlet, as prescribed by law. This outlet must be easily accessible
after the installation of the washing machine.

If the supply card is damaged, it should be replaced by a special cable available
at the manufacturers or at the technical service.

The company will not be responsible for any damage to persons or things due to
non-compliance with these instructions.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

This washing machine does not require any particular maintenance. At the end of each
wash, it is recommended to leave the door open so that air will circulate and dry the interior
of the machine. The external parts of the machine should never be cleaned with abrasive
detergents since this would ruin the enamel coating as well as the synthetic parts.

Removing and cleaning filter

Remove the plastic base guard at the bottom of the machine by
pressing and pulling upwards on the two tabs.

Place a rag under the washing machine to adsorb any residual
water. The filter is located under the base. Turn the filter handle
counterclockwise and pull out the filter. Clean it under running
water. Reinsert the filter and turn the handle clockwise until it is
completely locked. WARNING: water may leak from the filter if it is
not properly tightened. Remember to clean the filter frequently to

avoid excessive clogging.

BEFORE CALLING THE TECNICAL SERVICE CENTRE

Check if plug is inserted

Check that power is available

Check that the door is properly closed

Check that the water tap is open

Check that the water supply hose and water drain hose are not blocked

NOTE: - if you have to call the service centre, specify the model of your washing
machine and if necessary the Serial Number which is indicated on the rating plate on the
back of the machine.

How to use your washing machine economically and ecologically.
Optimum load - Always try to use the washing machine at full load, as this will use less

water, washing powder and energy than two smaller loads.
You want to use the pre-wash? - Only use the pre-wash for very dirty linen. If you don't

use the pre-wash, you save from 5% to 15% in energy, washing powder, water and time.
Is a high temperature wash required? - To avoid high temperature washing, treat

particularly dirty items with a stain remover or leave the worst stains to soak beforehand.
You will save energy in this way.
