Levelling

Level the appliance by loosening or tightening
the feet. Once in the right position fix the feet by
pushing the nuts against the base of the case.
Accurate levelling will prevent vibration, noise
and displacement of the appliance during
operation.
Some vibration is inevitable, especially if placed
on a wooden floor. Wooden floors are
particularly susceptible to vibrations. For advice,
consult a builder. If posible always place the
appliance on a solid floor.

Hydraulic connection

There should be a COLD WATER tap near the
washing machine with a screwing on connection
pipe of 3/4 gas for the water supply, a sink, a
wash basin or a drainage system in the wall.

Previously check if:
— it is not a hot water tap.
— the running water is clean. If not, run off a

reasonable amount of water to flush out any
debris that may have collected in the pipes.

Have the permanent drainage system in the wall
checked by a plumber.

Place the enclosed rubber joint, delivered in a
plastic bag together with the appliance (A), at the
very end of the inlet hose and carefully screw the
pipe to the tap taking care not to damage the
screwdrive and fix the nut well on to the end in
order to avoid leaking.

If necessary turn the hose adequately by
unscrewing the nut at the rear of the appliance.

Now tighten the nut anew to avoid leaks. (Open
the tap and asure that it does not leak and close
it again.)

Place the discharging hose in a washbasin or
sink with the aid of the bent piece delivered
separately. The bent piece has to be entered into
the tube’s mouth in order to assure the support.
Aforesaid piece allows the hose to be fix ed to the
wall by means of an opening on the upper part
and that way the hose does not move and its
falling is avoided.
