Installation

!

 This instruction manual should be kept in a 

safe place for future reference. If the washing 

machine is sold, given away or moved, please 

ensure the manual is kept with the machine, 

so that the new owner may benefit from the 

advice contained within it.

!

 Read these instructions carefully: they 

contain vital information relating to the safe 

installation and operation of the appliance.

!

 Inside the pack containing this manual, you 

will also find the guarantee and all the details 

necessary for installation.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking

1. Once you have removed all the packaging 

from the washing machine, make sure it has not 

been damaged during transportation. If it has 

been damaged, contact the retailer and do not 

proceed any further with the installation process.

2. Remove the 4 

protective screws 

(used during 

transportation) and 

the corresponding 

spacer, located on 

the rear part of the 

appliance (

see figure

). 

3. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs 

supplied in the pack.

4. Keep all the parts in a safe place; they will 

be needed again if the washing machine is 

moved to another location, to prevent the 

inside of the appliance being damaged.

!

 Packaging materials should not be used as 

toys for children.

Levelling

1. Place the washing machine on a flat sturdy 

floor, without resting it up against walls or 

cabinets.

2. If the floor is 

uneven, the front feet 

of the machine may 

be adjusted until it 

reaches a horizontal 

position (the angle of 

inclination must not 

exceed 2 degrees). 

!

 If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will 

be more stable and much less likely to cause 

vibrations and noise while it is operating, 

particularly during the spin cycle.

!

 If it is placed on carpet or a rug, adjust the 

feet in such a way as to allow a sufficient 

ventilation space underneath the washing 

machine. 

Connecting the electricity and 

water supplies

Connecting the water inlet hose

!

Before connecting the inlet hose to the water 

supply, run the water until it is perfectly clear.

1. Connect the inlet 

hose to the machine 

by screwing it onto 

the cold water inlet of 

the appliance, which 

is situated on the top 

right-hand side of 

the rear part of the 

appliance

 (see figure)

.

2. Connect the inlet 

hose by screwing it to 

a cold water tap using 

a 3/4 gas threaded 

connection 

(see 

figure)

.

3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over 

or bent.

!

 The water pressure at the tap must fall within 

the values indicated in the Technical data table 

(see next page).

!

 If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a 

specialised shop or an authorised technician.

!

 Never use second-hand or old inlet hoses; 

use the products supplied with the machine.

This appliance conforms to 

the following EC Directives:

- 2004/108/EC (Electroma-

gnetic Compatibility)

- 2006/95/EC (Low Voltage)

- 2002/96/EC

Connecting the drain hose

Connect the drain 

hose to drain duct 

piping or a wall drain 

located between 65 

and 100 cm above 

the floor, making sure 

it is not bent at all.

Alternatively, rest the 

drain hose on the 

side of a washbasin 

or bathtub, fastening 

the duct supplied to 

the tap 

(see figure). 

The free end of the 

hose should not be 

underwater. 

!

 We advise against the use of hose extensions; 

if it is absolutely necessary, the extension must 

have the same diameter as the original hose 

and must not exceed 150 cm in length.

Electrical connections 

Before plugging the appliance into the 

electricity socket, make sure that:  

•  the socket is earthed and complies with all 

applicable laws;

•  the socket is able to withstand the maximum 

power load of the appliance as indicated in 

the Technical data table

 (see opposite);

•  the power supply voltage falls within the 

values indicated in the Technical data table

(see opposite);

•  the socket is compatible with the plug of the 

appliance. If this is not the case, have the 

socket or the plug replaced.

!

 The machine must not be installed outdoors, 

even in covered areas. It is extremely 

dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to 

rain, storms and other weather conditions.

!

 The mains socket must remain within easy reach 

after the washing machine has been installed. 

!

 Do not use extension cords or multiple 

sockets.

!

 The cable should not be bent or compressed.

!

 The power supply cable and plug must only 

be replaced by authorised technicians.

Warning! The company shall not be held 

responsible in the event that these regulations 

are not respected.

Care and maintenance

Cutting off the water and 

electricity supplies

•  Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle. 

This will limit wear on the hydraulic system in 

the machine and help to prevent leaks.

•  Unplug the appliance when cleaning it and 

during all maintenance work.

Cleaning the machine 

The outer parts and rubber components of the 

appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth 

soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use 

solvents or abrasives.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser 

drawer

To remove the drawer, 

press lever (1) and pull 

the drawer outwards (2) 

(see figure).

Wash it under running 

water; this procedure 

should be repeated 

frequently.

Caring for your appliance drum

•  Always leave the door ajar to prevent 

unpleasant odours from forming.

Cleaning the pump

The washing machine is fitted with a self-

cleaning pump which does not require any 

maintenance. Sometimes, small items (such 

as coins or buttons) may fall into the protective 

pre-chamber at the base of the pump.

!

 Make sure the wash cycle has finished and 

unplug the appliance.

To access the pre-chamber:

1. take off the cover panel on the front of the 

machine by first pressing it in the centre and 

then pushing downwards on both sides until 

you can remove it 

(see figures);

2. position a container 

so that it will collect the 

water which flows out 

(approximately 1.5 l) 

(

see

figure

)

;

3. unscrew the lid by 

rotating it in an anti-

clockwise direction (

see

figure

)

;

4. clean the inside thoroughly;

5. screw the lid back on;

6. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks 

are securely in place before you push it onto 

the appliance.

Checking the water inlet hose

Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If 

there are any cracks, it should be replaced 

immediately: during the wash cycles, water 

pressure is very strong and a cracked hose 

could easily split open.
