1. Remove the packaging
• After unpacking, make sure that the washing machine is undamaged. If in doubt, do not use the washing machine. Contact
an Authorised Service Centre or your local retailer
• Check that the accessories and supplied parts are all present
• Keep the packing material (plastic bags, polystyrene parts, etc.) out of reach of children, as they are
potentially dangerous

Removing transit safety bolts at the rear of the machine
Attention!
Please keep the safety bolts for future transportation and reinstate them before transporting your machine. Never
transit your machine without the transit bolts in position.
Never place your machine on a carpet. This prevents air circulation. The electrical components of the machine
may overheat and may cause damage.
The transit safety bolts must be removed before any operation of the machine. Bolt heads, marked “C” should be turned in a
anti clockwise direction until the bolt can be partially withdrawn.
Remove transit safety bolts and rubber bushes by pulling outwards. (an up/down action and a small squirt of washing up
liquid should ease removal.)
Plastic plugs, supplied inside the protective bag and designated as “P”, should be placed in the safety bolt holes according
to the direction shown.

Water Supply
• Hot water temperature should not exceed 75˚C. Temperatures above this may the machine to fault or
cause damage to the machine
• If you have an uncontrolled water heating source (eg a wet-back or solar heating system) you should
fit a Safe Valve. This will ensure the hot water temperature remains within safe limits.
• Inlet water pressure: Maximum 1 MPa (150 psi), Minimum 34 Pa (5 psi)
• Inlet water flow rate: Minimum 3 litres/minute
Inlet Hoses
1) Connect the straight ends of the inlet hoses to the taps. There are washers fitted in both ends.
2) Connect the elbow ends of the inlet hoses to the inlet valves on the back of the machine. The cold inlet
valve is marked in blue, while the hot inlet valve is marked in red.
Cold Supply Only:
If you only have a cold water supply , an inlet valve cap (blanking cap) MUST be connected to the hot inlet
valve. The cap prevents water leaking out of the hot inlet valve. The cap is supplied in the same bag as
the inlet water hoses.
4. Adjust feet
In order for quiet and stable operation, the machine should be placed properly and levelled on its feet.
Your machine comes with two adjustable feet. If the machine is unstable, loosen the plastic counternut
and screw or unscrew the adjustable foot until the machine is levelled perfectly. After positioning, tighten
the counternut for stability.
