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.
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 0.48 bar 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
1
/
2
(16
ft) between the appliance’s inlet and the
bottom of the water storage tank.
There will be sufficient pressure for the hot water
supply, providing there is a minimun height of 2.74
metres (9 ft) between the bottom of the cold water
storage tank and the bottom of the hot water
cylinder.
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
This appliance is designed to be permanently
plumbed into your home’s water supply and
drainage system.
Hook the end of the drain hose into a standpipe
installed for the purpose. The standpipe must have
an internal diameter of at least 40 mm (1
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.
The drain hose may be extended to a maximum of
4 metres. An additional drain hose and joining
piece is available from your local service centre.
The joining piece must have an internal diameter of
18 mm.
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.
When discharging into a standpipe ensure 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.

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 can be made with a
spanner. Accurate levelling 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.
P0850

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.
