INSTALLATION

Unpacking

You are advised to keep all transit devices so

that they can be refitted if the machine ever has

to be transported again.

1. Using a spanner, unscrew and remove the

rear right-hand bolt and lay the machine on

its back, taking care not to squash the hoses.

This can be avoided by placing one of the

corner packing pieces between the machine

and the floor.

2. Release the two plastic bags by removing the

adhesive strip.

3. Carefully remove the right-hand bag (1) then

the left-hand bag (2) by pulling them towards

the centre of the machine.

4. Set the machine upright and remove the two

remaining bolts from the back.

5. Pull out the three plastic spacers from the

holes into which the bolts were fitted.

6. Plug the open holes with the plugs which you

will find in the plastic bag containing the

instruction booklet.

Positioning

Install the machine on a flat hard floor.

Make sure that air circulation around the

machine is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc.

Check that the machine does not touch the wall

or other kitchen units.

Carefully level by screwing the adjustable feet in

or out. Never place cardboard, wood or similar

materials under the machine to compensate for

any unevenness in the floor.

6

All transit bolts and packing must be

removed before using the appliance.

Water inlet

Connect the water inlet hose to a tap with a 3/4"

thread after having inserted the small filter “A”

ENGLISH

supplied with the machine.

The other end of the inlet hose which connects

to the machine can be turned in any direction.

Simply loosen the fitting, rotate the hose and

retighten the fitting, making sure there are no

water leaks.

The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is

too short and you do not wish to move the tap,

you will have to purchase a new, longer hose

specially designed for this type of use.

Water drainage

The end of the drain hose can be positioned in

three ways:

Hooked over the edge of a sink using the

plastic hose guide supplied with the

machine. In this case, make sure the end

cannot come unhooked when the machine is

emptying.

This could be done by tying it to the tap with a

piece of string or attaching it to the wall.

In a sink drain pipe branch. This branch must

be above the trap so that the bend is at least

60 cm above the ground.

Directly into a drain pipe at a height of not

less than 60 cm and not more than 90 cm.

The end of the drain hose must always be

ventilated, i.e. the inside diameter of the drain

pipe must be larger than the outside diameter of

the drain hose.

The drain hose must not be kinked. Run it along

the floor; only the part near the drainage point

must be raised.

Electrical connection

This machine is designed to operate on a

220-230 V, single-phase, 50 Hz supply.

Check that your domestic electrical installation

can take the maximum load required (1.75 kW),

also taking into account any other appliances in

use.

Connect the machine to an earthed socket,

in accordance with current wiring regulations.

7

The manufacturer declines any

responsibility for damage or injury

through failure to comply with the above

safety precaution.

In the event of replacing the electric

cable, please contact our nearest

Service Centre.

MAINTENANCE

16

1.Bodywork

Clean the outside of the machine with warm

water and a neutral, non-abrasive household

detergent. Rinse with clean water and dry with a

soft cloth.

Important: do not use methylated spirits,

solvents or similar products to clean the

bodywork.

2.Detergent dispenser drawer

After a while, detergents and fabric softeners

leave deposits in the drawer.

Clean the drawer from time to time by rinsing it

under a running tap. To remove the drawer from

the machine, press the button in the rear left-

hand corner.

To facilitate cleaning, the top part of the additive

compartments can be removed.

Detergent can also eventually accumulate inside

the drawer recess: clean it with an old

toothbrush. Refit the drawer after cleaning.

3.Water inlet filter

If you notice that the machine is taking longer to

fill, check that the filter in the water inlet hose is

not blocked.

Turn off the water tap.

Unscrew the hose from the tap and remove the

filter.

Clean it with a stiff brush.

Refit the filter and screw the hose back onto the

tap.

4.Drain pump

The machine is equipped with a self-cleaning

pump which does not need any maintenance.

ENGLISH

5.The dangers of freezing

If the machine is exposed to temperatures below

0°C, certain precautions should be taken.

n

Turn off the water tap.

n

Unscrew the inlet hose.

n

Unhook the drain hose from the rear support

and position the end of this hose and that of

the inlet hose in a bowl. Run the draining

programme until the selector dial is in the

“Stop” position.

n

Switch the machine off.

n

Screw the inlet hose and reposition the drain

hose.

n

When you intend to start the machine up

again, make sure that the room temperature

is above 0°C.
