Cautions
BE SURE TO REMOVE SHIPPING RODS PRIOR
•
TO THE FIRST USE OF THE APPLIANCE.
ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE THE MACHINE
WITHOUT REMOVING THE SHIPPING RODS
MAY RESULT IN IRREPARABLE DAMAGE
WHICH IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
When connecting your washing machine to
•
the water supply, be sure to use the brand new
water inlet hose and appropriate sealing gaskets
(included).
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 at concrete oor.
Follow the instructions for correct installation and
•
water and main connections.
Never immerse the end of the drain hose into the
•
draining water.
Prior to starting the wash cycle, ensure the door is
•
closed properly.
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.
High Efciency (“HE”) detergent recommended.
•
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 completely remove
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 insert at least one shipping
•
rod. Prior to this operation disconnect the
appliance from the main power!
Rating plate with basic information is located on
•
the edge of the door opening.
The appliance is manufactured in compliance
•
with all relevant safety standards; however, it

Important safety instructions
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or
injury when using your appliance, follow
basic precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Do not wash articles that have been previously
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted
with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, and other
ammable or explosive substances as they give
off vapors that could ignite or explode.
3. Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or
other ammable or explosive substances to the
wash water. These substances give off vapors
that could ignite or explode.
4. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may
be produced in a hot water system that has not
been used for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN
GAS IS EXPLOSIVE, if the hot water system
has not been used for such a period, before
using a washing machine, turn on all hot
water faucets and let the water ow from
each for several minutes. This will release
any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is
ammable do not smoke or use an open ame
during this time.
5. Do not allow children to play on or in the
appliance. Close supervision of children is
necessary when the appliance is used near
children.
6. Before the appliance is removed from service or
discarded, remove the door.
7. Do not reach into the appliance if the tub or
agitator is moving.
8. Do not install or store this appliance where it will
be exposed to the weather.
9. Do not tamper with controls.
10. Do not repair or replace any part of the
appliance or attempt any servicing unless
specically recommended in the user-
maintenance instructions or in published user-
repair instructions that you understand and have
the skills to carry out.
11. To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect
the appliance from the power supply before
attempting any user maintenance. Turning
the control to the »OFF« position does not
disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

Leveling the appliance
Level the appliance by turning the adjustable legs.
•
Placing a “bubble” level on the washer may assist
you.
The legs are adjustable up to +/- 0,39 inch (1 cm).
After the adjustment tighten the nuts rmly (A)
- towards the bottom of the machine!
The oor must be a hard surface with a
maximum slope of ½˝ per foot (1,27 cm per 30
cm). To make sure the washer does not vibrate
or move, you may have to reinforce the oor.
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 connection
To ensure correct operation of the appliance,
inlet water pressure must be between 7 psi to
116 psi (0,05 MPa and 0,8 MPa).
Minimum water pressure can be established by
measuring the quantity of poured out water.
0,8 gal (3 litres) of water must be poured out
from a completely opened tap in 15 seconds.
Take the water inlet hose from the drum and
•
attach the inlet hose angle extension (1) to the
washing machine by screwing it onto the provided
thread (certain models only).
Insert the gasket with a lter net into the straight
•
inlet hose attachment nut (2) and screw the nut
