Cautions

• Be sure to remove transport brackets prior ﬁ rst use of the appliance. Attempted operation of the blocked machine may result in irreparable damage which is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty!

• When connecting your washing machine to water supply, be sure to use brand new water inlet hose and appropriate sealing gaskets (attached).

• Do not locate the machine in a room with temperature below 0°C. Parts of the machine may be damaged if frozen.

• Install the washing machine in a perfectly horizontal position, on solid ﬂ at concrete ﬂ oor.

• Follow the instructions for correct installation and water and mains connections.

• Never immerse the end of the drain hose into the draining water.

• Prior starting the washing cycle lock the door by pressing them at the designed spot.

• Door may not be open during the washing cycle.

• Use only detergents and softeners for machine wash. Manufacturer may not assume responsibility for any damage and eventual discoloring of gaskets and plastic components as a consequence of incorrect use of bleach and/or coloring agents.

• For removal of lime residues use such agents with added anti-corrosion agents. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Finish the lime removal by multiple rinsing to remove completely eventual acid residues.

• Never use detergents containing solvents, since there is a danger of creating toxic gasses which may damage the machine and result in ignition or explosion.

• Upon completion of washing operation close the water faucet.

• Before any transport block the machine by inserting at least one transport blocking rod. Prior this operation disconnect the appliance from the mains power!

• Rating plate with basic information is located above the opening of the machine.

• The warranty shall not apply to consumables (bulbs), minor discoloration or deviations of color, increased noise level as a consequence of appliance age, which does not affect appliance functionality, and aesthetical deﬁ ciencies which do not affect appliance functionality or safety.

Before connecting the appliance read these instructions carefully. Repairing the failure

arising from inappropriate connections or use of the appliance is not covered by the guarantee.

The symbol on the product or on its packaging indicates that this product may not be treated as household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to the applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. By

ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health, which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of this product.

Installation and connection

Package removalPackage removal

Removal of transport brackets

In removing the wrapping be careful not to damage the

appliance with a sharp object.

Before connecting the appliance, let it warm up to room

temperature (wait for two hours).

• Our appliances are packed in environmentally friendly materials which may be recycled, deposited or decomposed without any threat to the environment.

• To this end all wrappings are marked accordingly.

• Move the pipes.

• Loosen screws A at the rear of the machine (Fig. 1).

• Remove the brackets B (Fig. 1) and slide them into the groove on the blocking rod (Fig. 2) - the right one should be turned around.

• Use the brackets to rotate blocking rods for 90° and pull them out.

• Close the openings with attached plastic pegs.

Save transport brackets for eventual later use.

Be sure to remove the transport brackets prior ﬁ rst use,

otherwise the appliance may be permanently damaged. In such cases the warranty conditions are void.

Leveling the applianceLeveling the appliance

• Put the appliance in horizontal position by turning the adjustable legs.

The legs are adjustable up to +/- 1 cm.

After the adjustment tighten the nuts ﬁ rmly (A) - towards the bottom of the machine!

Vibrations, moving of the appliance and loud operation

due to incorrect setting of the adjustable feet shall not be covered by this warranty.

The appliance should be placed on a surface with

concrete base; the surface should be dry and clean in order to prevent slipping. The adjustable feet should also be cleaned before installation.

• If you have a tumble dryer of the same dimensions, you can place it on top of the washing machine.

Water inlet connectionWater inlet connection

To ensure correct operation of the appliance, water

pressure inlet must be between 0,05 and 0,8 MPa.

Minimum water pressure can be established by

measuring the quantity of poured out water. 3 litres of water must be poured out from completely opened tap in 15 seconds.

• Insert the gasket with screen into the water inlet hose thread Screw the hose thread to the water faucet

• In case of hot and cold water connection, connect one hose to cold and other to hot water faucet as marked at the rear of the appliance (letters C and H) (C - cold; H - hot)

Partial Aqua-stop (water stop system)

In case of damage on the interior pipe, leaking is prevented by automatic closing system which stops water inlet to the machine. In such cases display A turns red. Inlet pipe must be replaced.

Complete Aqua-stop

In case of damage on the interior pipe, leaking is prevented by automatic closing system which stops water inlet to the machine. Security system also detects whether there is any water leakage within the interior of the machine. In such cases washing is suspended, machine switches on the pump and signals error.

225199

Do not immerse the Aqua-stop system inlet pipe into

the water, because it contains the electric valve!

Water outlet connectionWater outlet connection

Connect the appliance to

Connect the appliance to the mains supply

the mains supply

• Fix the outlet hose to run into the sink or the bathtub, or connect it directly to the wall drain outlet (diameter min. 4 cm).

• Wall drain must be installed properly and must enable occasional cleaning.

• Fasten the outlet hose support with a piece of rope led through the hose elbow, to prevent the hose from slipping to the ﬂ oor.

The end of outlet hose should be placed between minimum 60

cm and maximum 100 cm above the ﬂ oor level.

• Plug the mains power cable to the wall mains socket.

• Required voltage and other information are written on the rating plate above the door opening of the machine.

The wall socket must be accessible at all times and

must be equipped with an earth lead (in accordance with the local safety regulations).

The permanent connection must be ﬁ tted by an

authorized personnel only.

Damaged mains power cable may be replaced only by

the producer or his authorized personnel.

Never plug the appliance into the electric shaver socket

or hair dryer socket.

225199

This appliance must be earthed!

Connect the appliance with the cable and plug to a suitable 13 amp socket which is properly earthed. Required nominal voltage and frequency are indicated on the rating plate. The connection to the mains supply and earthing have to be made according to current standards and regulations. The appliance resists temporary voltage tolerance up to -15 to +10 %.

If the ﬁ tted plug is not suitable for your socket outlet, then it should be cut off and disposed of safely in order to avoid a possible shock hazard. A suitable plug of 13 amp or 15 amp rating should then be ﬁ tted to the cable.

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code (see ﬁ g.).

1. The GREEN AND YELLOW wire must be connected to the terminal in the plug, which is marked with the letter E or by the earth, symbol or coloured green or green and yellow.

2. The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.

3. The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.
