Installation
2. If the floor is not perfectly level, compensate
for any unevenness by tightening or loosening
the adjustable front feet (see figure); the angle
of inclination, measured according to the
worktop, must not exceed 2°.
Levelling your appliance correctly will provide
it with stability and avoid any vibrations, noise
and shifting during operation. If it is placed on
a fitted or loose carpet, adjust the feet in such
a way as to allow enough room for ventilation
beneath the washing machine.
Electric and water connections
Connecting the water inlet hose
1. Connect the supply
pipe by screwing it to
a cold water tap using
a 3/4 gas threaded
connection (see
figure).
Before performing
the connection, allow
the water to run freely
until it is perfectly
clear.
2. Connect the other
end of the water inlet
hose to the washing
machine,
screwing it onto the
appliance’s cold water
inlet, situated on the
top right-hand side
on the rear of the
appliance (see figure).
3. Make sure there are no kinks or bends in the
hose.
! The water pressure at the tap must be within
the values indicated in the Technical details
table (on the page 5).
! If the water inlet hose is not long enough,
contact a specialist store or an authorised
serviceman.
! Ensure that the supply taps are allowing
water through. Old taps may seize in the
closed position and thus prevent water
reaching the machine.
! Never use second-hand or old inlet hoses;
use the products supplied with the machine.
! Keep this instruction manual in a safe place
for future reference. Should the appliance be
sold, transferred or moved, make sure the
instruction manual accompanies the washing
machine to inform the new owner as to its
operation and features.
! Read these instructions carefully: they contain
vital information on installation, use and safety.
Unpacking and levelling
Unpacking
! This is a separate
part of the polystyrene
base and should be
removed with the
base.
! IMPORTANT check
when unpacking
your machine.
1. Unpack the washing
machine.
2. Check whether the
washing machine has
been damaged during
transport. If this is the
case, do not install
it and contact your
retailer.
3. Remove the 4
protective screws and the rubber bush with
the respective spacer, situated on the rear of
the appliance (see also the installation leaflet).
4. Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs provided.
5. Keep all the parts: you will need them again
if the washing machine needs to be moved to
another location.
! Packaging materials are not children’s toys.
Levelling
Your machine may make a considerable
amount of noise if the two front feet have not
been adjusted correctly.
1. Install the washing
machine on a flat sturdy
floor, without resting it up
against walls, cabinets
or anything else.

Connecting the drain hose
Connect the drain
hose, without bending
it, to a draining
duct or a wall drain
situated between 65
and 100 cm from the
floor;
The drain hose may
be connected to
an under-sink trap.
Before connecting
the drain hose from
the machine ensure
that any blanks or
removable ends have
been taken off the
spigot.
If it is placed over
the edge of a basin
or sink be sure
the free end of the
hose should not be
underwater.
! We advise against the use of hose extensions;
in case of absolute need, the extension must
have the same diameter as the original hose
and must not exceed 150 cm in length.
Ensure that if the drain hose is pushed into
a standpipe, that the end does not go down
more than 15cms (6 inches). If the hose is
pushed down too far, this may cause the
machine to self -syphon ie. continuously empty
as it is filling.
Electric connection
Before plugging the appliance into the mains
socket, make sure that:
the socket is earthed and in compliance with
the applicable law;
the socket is able to sustain the appliance’s
maximum power load indicated on the
Technical Data Plate fixed on the machine;
the supply voltage is included within the
values indicated on the Technical Data Plate
fixed on the machine.
• the socket is compatible with the washing
machine’s plug. If this is not the case,
replace the socket or the plug.
Your appliance is now supplied with a 13 amp
fused plug it can be plugged into a 13 amp
socket for immediate use. Before using the
appliance please read the instructions below.
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED.
THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD
BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN.
Replacing the fuse:
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA
approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be
used, and the fuse cover re-fitted. If the fuse
cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a
replacement is obtained.
Replacement fuse covers:
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must
be of the correct colour as indicated by
the coloured marking or the colour that is
embossed in words on the base of the plug.
Replacements can be obtained directly from
your nearest Service Depot.
Removing the plug:
If your appliance has a non-rewireable
moulded plug and you should wish to re-route
the mains cable through partitions, units etc.,
please ensure that either:
the plug is replaced by a fused 13 ampere
rewireable plug bearing the BSI mark of
approval.
or:
the mains cable is wired directly into a 13
amp cable outlet, controlled by a switch, (in
compliance with BS 5733) which is accessible
without moving the appliance.
Disposing of the plug:
Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself,
you make the pins unusable so that it cannot
be accidentally inserted into a socket.
Instructions for connecting cable to an alternative
plug:
Important: the wires in the mains lead are
coloured in accordance with the following
code:
Green & Yellow Earth
Blue Neutral
Brown Live
65 - 100 cm
Where it connects to
the waste water pipe
cut end off spigot or
remove the blanking cap

GB
As the colours of the wires in the lead may
not correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed
as follows:
Connect Green & Yellow wire to terminal
marked E or or coloured Green or Green &
Yellow.
Connect Brown wire to terminal marked L or
coloured Red.
Connect Blue wire to terminal marked N or
coloured Black.
If a 13 amp plug (BS 1363) is used it must be
fitted with a
13 amp fuse, either in the plug or adaptor or
at the distribution board.
If you are in any doubt regarding the electrical
supply to your machine, consult a qualified
electrician before use.
How to connect an alternative plug:
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
BLUE NEUTRAL (N)
BROWN LIVE (L)
GREEN & YELLOW EARTH (E)
Disposing of the appliance:
When disposing of the appliance please
remove the plug by cutting the mains cable
as close as possible to the plug body and
dispose of it as described on the previous
page.
! The washing machine should not be installed
in an outdoor environment, not even where
the area is sheltered, because it may be very
dangerous to leave it exposed to damp, rain
and thunderstorms.
! When the washing machine is installed, the
mains socket must be within easy reach.
! Do not use extensions or multiple sockets.
! The power supply cable must never be bent
or dangerously compressed.
! The power supply cable must only be
replaced by an authorised serviceman.
Warning! The company denies all liability if and
when these norms are not respected.
The first wash cycle
Once the appliance has been installed, and
before you use it for the first time, run a wash
