Installation
Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for GB 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
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 3 protective screws and the rubber washer with the respective spacer, situated on the rear of the appliance (see figure).
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
1. Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy floor, without resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets or other.
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. Insert seal A into the end of the inlet hose and screw the latter onto a cold water tap with a 3/4 gas threaded
|
|
A |
mouth (see figure). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before making 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 next page).
If the water inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist store or an authorised serviceman.
14
Connecting the drain hose
65 - 100 cm |
Connect the drain hose, without bending it, to a draining duct or a wall drain situated between 65 and 100 cm from the floor;
alternatively, place it over the edge of a basin, sink or tub, fastening the duct supplied to the tap (see figure). 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.
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 in the Technical details table (on the right);
•the supply voltage is included within the values i ndicated on the Technical details table
(on the right);
•the socket is compatible with the washing machine's plug. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.
The washing machine should not be installed in an outdoor environment, not even when the area is sheltered, because it may be very dangerous to leave it exposed to 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 cycle with detergent and no laundry, setting the 90°C programme without a pre-wash cycle.
