INSTALLATION
Unpacking
Before starting the machine up, the packing must be
removed as follows.
You are advised to keep all the packaging for re-use in
case the machine is to be transported again.
Using a spanner unscrew
and remove the rear right
bolt. Lay the machine
gently on its back, making
sure that the hoses are
not squashed.

Positioning
Your new washing machine has been designed to be
permanently plumbed in to your home’s water supply
and drainage system. However, if this is not possible, it
may be connected to suitable existing taps with the drain
hose discharging into a sink.
The appliance has two inlet hoses, hot and cold, with
female 3/4” BSP thread connectors. If this connection is
not compatible with the plumbing of the existing installation, a variety of connectors are available from good
hardware stores and plumbers merchants to suit most
domestic plumbing. Any alteration to your existing plumbing must be carried out by a competent person, or qualified plumber.
Water inlet
The inlets on the back of the appliance are colour coded,
blue for cold and red for hot.
Before connecting the
hoses be sure to fit the
mesh filters supplied as
per diagram.
Remove the polystyrene block from the bottom of the
machine.
Carefully slide out the right polythene bag (1), removing
it toward the centre of the machine.
Repeat the operation for the left polythene bag (2),
removing it toward the centre of the machine.
Remove the polystyrene
base, set the machine
upright and unscrew the
two remaining rear bolts.

Slide out the 3 plastic spacers and plug the 3 holes with
the 3 plastic plugs which you can find at the back of the
machine.
P0003
If only a cold water supply is available, connect the two
hoses to a cold water outlet by means of a «Y» connection piece.
Installation should comply with local water authority and
building regulations’ requirements.
The appliance must be given a separate cold water supply and not be connected to a mixer tap, a single outlet
water heater or a booster pump. A minimum water pressure of 7 psi is required for safe operation of the appliance.
If you cannot make the cold water connection direct from
the rising mains, you may be able to operate the appliance from your cold water storage system.

There should be a minimum distance of 5.02m (16

between the appliance’s inlet and the bottom of the tank.
There will be sufficient pressure for the hot water supply
from the hot water cylinder if the height between the
appliance’s inlet and the bottom of the cold water storage cistern (not between the appliance and hot water
cylinder) is at least 2.74m (9ft).
Set the hoses correctly by
loosening the ring nuts.
After positioning the inlet
hoses, be sure to tighten
the ring nuts again to prevent leaks.

Water drainage
If you intend the drain hose from the machine to empty
into a sink, make sure that the sink is empty and that the
plug hole is not blocked.
If the machine is permanently plumbed in, hook the end
of the hose into a standpipe installed for the purpose.
The standpipe must have an internal diameter of at least
40 mm (1 1/2") in order that there is an air gap between
the drain hose and the standpipe. Make sure, that it is
designed in such a way, that the end of the drain hose
cannot be covered with water.

Important
Before connecting up the machine to new pipework or to
pipework that has not been used for some time, run off a
reasonable amount of water to flush out any debris that
may have collected in the pipes.
Whether discharging into a sink or a standpipe check
that the end of the drain hose is neither too high nor too
low. The top of the curve in the hose’s end should be no
more than 90 cm (35.4”), and no less than 60cm (23.6”)
above floor level.

Warning
The machine should NOT be placed on deep pile carpeting.
Note
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is
easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a breakdown.
All plumbing and electrical work required to install this
appliance must be carried out by competent persons or
qualified plumbers or electricians.
In the interest of the environment
Washing machines and dishwashers should be connected to the FOUL drainage system, the water will then be
taken to a sewage works for treatment before being
discharged safely into a river.
It is essential that these appliances are not connected to
the surface water drainage system as this water is
discharged directly into a river or stream and may cause
pollution.
If you require any further advice please contact your
local authority drainage department.
Levelling
Level the washing machine by raising or lowering the feet. The feet
may be tight to adjust as
they incorporate a self
locking nut, but the machine MUST be level.
Any necessary adjustment

prevents vibration, noise and displacement of the machine during operation.
Some vibration is inevitable, especially if mounted on a
wooden floor.
Sprung wooden floors are particularly susceptible to
vibration. For advice, consult a builder. If possible,
always place the machine on a solid floor.
Special conditions
If the floor is carpeted with a deep-pile carpet or covered
with crumbly or soft material, insert a rigid support base
under the feet to prevent noise, vibration or displacement. The base should protrude a few centimetres
beyond the edges of the machine.
