Unpacking the Product

Remove the machine from its packaging close to the final location of the machine.

Step 1. Remove all outer packaging from the
machine. Check there is no damage to the machine
before continuing the installation process.

Step 2. Carefully cut through the hose-retaining clip
at the rear of the machine, taking care not to cut
the hose itself.

Step 3. Remove the 4 retaining screws at the rear
of the machine, as indicated in the image on the
left. Use the blanking plugs provided in the

instruction booklet pack to cover the holes once the

screws have been removed.

Step 4. Tilt the machine forward and apply the
insulation base panel (corrugated plastic) to the
base of the machine using the self-adhesive strips.

All packaging materials used are environmentally friendly and recyclable. Please help
dispose of the packaging via environmentally friendly means. Your local council will be
able to give you details of current means of disposal.

Installation

Before installing the machine, ensure that the mains plug and water supply valves are
easily accessible from your chosen machine location.

Make sure there is enough space for the machine. Select a space at least 600mm wide
and 850mm high. Also leave enough space to open the door fully so you can load
and unload it easily.

Keep the area underneath and around the machine free of combustible materials such
as lint, paper, rags, chemicals etc.

All machines are tested with water prior to leaving the factory, so a small amount of
water may be present in the drum and the drain hose.

Flooding may occur if any part of the installation process is not completed correctly.

Electricity Supply

Washing machines are supplied to operate at a voltage of 230-240V, 50 Hz single
phase. Please check that the supply circuit is rated to at least 13A.

The plug is already equipped with a 13A fuse, which is BS 1362 ASTA approved. Any
replacement must be the same rating and specification. If the fuse cover is lost, do not

use the plug until it is replaced.

Electricity can be extremely dangerous. Please take care when connecting your
machine to the electricity supply.

This washing machine must be earthed.

The socket outlet and the plug on the appliance must be of the same type.

Do not use multiple adapters and/or extension leads.

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following codes:

Blue NEUTRAL
Brown LIVE
Green and Yellow EARTH

Appliance complies with European Directive 73/23/EEC, 89/336/EEC

replaced by 2006/95/EC and 2004/108/EC and subsequent amendments.

Water Supply

This machine should only be connected to a cold-water supply. The cold-water
pressure should be between 0.5 and 8 bar (0.05-0.8 Mpa).

Do not connect the machine to a single outlet instantaneous water heater.

Before connecting the fill hose, check that the water is running from the water supply
tap to be used. Let the water flow from the tap until the water runs clear before
connecting to the machine. The water supply tap should be accessible when the
machine is installed.

Connecting the Cold Water

Supply

Only one hose is required to install this machine to a cold water supply. Cold fill is an
energy efficient system. Only the water required to wash the laundry is heated. There
is no loss of heat in the pipeline from the hot water tank or the boiler.

If your previous machine installation was hot and cold fill ensure that the hot tap is
firmly closed to prevent leakage.

This machine has an inlet hose with a 19mm (3/4") threaded ferrule fitted to the end,
to attach between the threaded connector on the appliance and the water supply. Only
use the new hose supplied to connect the machine and ensure that the sealing washers
are in place inside the hose connectors.

Do not re-use old hoses that are attached to existing installations.

Do not over-tighten the connections. Hand tight is sufficient.

Do not trap or kink the hose.

Step 1. Connect the elbow end of the hose

provided to the threaded inlet on the back of the
machine.

The grey pipe needs to connect to the white
threaded inlet on the machine.

Step 2. Hand tighten the connector.

Step 3. Connect the straight ends of the pipes to
the water supply; ensure that there are no kinks.

Step 4. Turn on the water supply and check there
are no leaks. If there is a leak, turn off the water

supply, disconnect the hose and check the sealing
washers are in place. Refit the hose and turn on
the water supply.

Connecting the drainage pipe

This machine must be connected in accordance with the water supply regulations.
Water bylaws prohibit connection to a surface water drain.

Decide which plumbing option suits you best then follow the instructions below:

Option 1 - Waste pipe connection (waste trap)

Fit the hooked end support to the outlet pipe and position it at least 800mm off the
floor.

After removing the blanking plug, or cutting the membrane from the waste system,
securely fix the outlet pipe to the drainage system, using a hose clip.

Secure the hooked end support up to at least 800mm to avoid water being drawn
back into the machine.

Option 2 - Into a standpipe

Ensure that the standpipe is not located near an electrical socket.

Fit the hooked end support to the outlet pipe. Install the hose into the standpipe
ensuring that the pipe is at least 500mm from the floor.

Insert the outlet pipe approximately 100mm into the standpipe.
