InstaIIation
Keep th|s |nstruct|on manua| |n a safe p|ace for
future reference. Shou|d the app||ance be so|d,
transferred or moved, make sure the |nstruct|on
manua| accompan|es the wash|ng mach|ne to |nform
the new owner as to |ts operat|on and features.
Pead these |nstruct|ons carefu||y: they conta|n v|ta|
|nformat|on on |nsta||at|on, use and safety.
Unpacking and IeveIIing
Unpacking
1. npack the wash|ng mach|ne.
2. Oheck whether the wash|ng mach|ne has been
damaged dur|ng transport. |f th|s |s the case, do not
|nsta|| |t and contact your reta||er.
3. Pemove the four
protect|ve screws and
the rubber bush w|th the
respect|ve spacer,
s|tuated on the rear of
the app||ance (see a|so
||e |ns|a||a||on |ea/|e|.
NB.The p|ast|c spacers
may fa|| down |ns|de the
mach|ne once the bo|t
has been removed, and w||| not |nterfere w|th the
operat|on of the mach|ne.
4. Sea| the gaps us|ng the p|ast|c p|ugs prov|ded.
5. Keep a|| the parts: you w||| need them aga|n |f the
wash|ng mach|ne needs to be moved to another
|ocat|on.
Packag|ng mater|a|s are not ch||dren's toys.
LeveIIing
Your mach|ne may make a cons|derab|e amount of no|se
|f the two front feet have not been adjusted correct|y.
1. |nsta|| the wash|ng mach|ne on a f|at sturdy f|oor,
w|thout rest|ng |t up aga|nst wa||s, furn|ture cab|nets
or other.
2. |f the f|oor |s not
perfect|y |eve|, compen-
sate for any unevenness
by t|ghten|ng or
|oosen|ng the adjustab|e
front feet (see /|0e,
the ang|e of |nc||nat|on,
measured accord|ng to
the worktop, must not
exceed 2.
|eve|||ng your app||ance correct|y w||| prov|de |t w|th
stab|||ty and avo|d any v|brat|ons, no|se and sh|ft|ng
dur|ng operat|on. |f |t |s p|aced on a f|tted or |oose
carpet, adjust the feet |n such a way as to a||ow
enough room for vent||at|on beneath the wash|ng
mach|ne.
EIectric and water connections
Connecting the water inIet hose
1. |nsert sea| A |nto the
end of the |n|et hose
and screw the |atter
onto a co|d water tap
w|th a 3/4 gas threaded
mouth (see /|0e.
Before mak|ng the
connect|on, a||ow the
water to run free|y unt||
|t |s perfect|y c|ear.
2. Oonnect the other end
of the water |n|et hose to
the wash|ng mach|ne,
screw| ng | t ont o t he
app| | ance's co| d water
|n|et, s|tuated on the top
r| ght-hand s| de on the
rear of t he app| | ance
(see /|0e.
3. Make sure there are no k|nks or bends |n the hose.
The water pressure at the tap must be w|th|n the
va|ues |nd|cated |n the Techn|ca| deta||s tab|e
(on ||e nex| oae.
|f the water |n|et hose |s not |ong enough, contact
a spec|a||st store or an author|sed serv|ceman.
Ensure that the supp|y taps are a||ow|ng water
through. O|d taps may se|ze |n the c|osed pos|t|on
and thus prevent water reach|ng the mach|ne.

Connecting the drain hose
Oonnect the dra|n hose,
w|thout bend|ng |t, to a
dra|n|ng duct or a wa||
dra|n s|tuated between
65 and 100 cm from
the f|oor,
The dra|n hose may be
connected to an
under-s|nk trap. Before
connect|ng the dra|n
hose from the mach|ne
ensure that any b|anks
or removab|e ends
have been taken off
the sp|got.
|f |t |s p|ace over the
edge of a bas|n or s|nk
be sure the free end of
the hose shou|d not be
underwater.
We adv|se aga|nst the use of hose extens|ons, |n
case of abso|ute need, the extens|on must have the
same d|ameter as the or|g|na| hose and must not
exceed 150 cm |n |ength.
Ensure that |f the dra|n hose |s pushed |nto a
standp|pe, that the end does not go down more
than 15cms (6 |nches}. |f the hose |s pushed down
too far, th|s may cause the mach|ne to se|f -syphon
|e. cont|nuous|y empty as |t |s f||||ng.
EIectric connection
Before p|ugg|ng the app||ance |nto the ma|ns
socket, make sure that:
the socket |s earthed and |n comp||ance w|th the
app||cab|e |aw,
the socket |s ab|e to susta|n the app||ance's

(see oae 5,
the socket |s compat|b|e w|th the wash|ng
mach|ne's p|ug. |f th|s |s not the case, rep|ace
the socket or the p|ug.
Your app||ance |s now supp||ed w|th a 13 amp fused

and the fuse cover re-f|tted. |f the fuse cover |s |ost,
the p|ug must not be used unt|| a rep|acement |s

Pep|acement fuse covers:
|f a rep|acement fuse cover |s f|tted, |t must be of
the correct co|our as |nd|cated by the co|oured
mark|ng or the co|our that |s embossed |n words on
the base of the p|ug. Pep|acements can be obta|ned
d|rect|y from your nearest Serv|ce Depot.

|f your app||ance has a non-rew|reab|e mou|ded p|ug
and you shou|d w|sh to re-route the ma|ns cab|e
through part|t|ons, un|ts etc., p|ease ensure that
e|ther:
the p|ug |s rep|aced by a fused 13 ampere re-
wearab|e p|ug bear|ng the BS| mark of approva|.
or:
the ma|ns cab|e |s w|red d|rect|y |nto a 13 amp cab|e

Ensure that before d|spos|ng of the p|ug |tse|f, you
make the p|ns unusab|e so that |t cannot be
acc|denta||y |nserted |nto a socket.

d|str|but|on board.
|f you are |n any doubt the e|ectr|ca| supp|y to your

When d|spos|ng of the app||ance p|ease remove the
p|ug by cutt|ng the ma|ns cab|e as c|ose as poss|b|e
to the p|ug body and d|spose of |t as descr|bed
above.
The wash|ng mach|ne shou|d not be |nsta||ed |n an
outdoor env|ronment, not even when the area |s
she|tered, because |t may be very dangerous to
|eave |t exposed to ra|n and thunderstorms.
When the wash|ng mach|ne |s |nsta||ed, the ma|ns
socket must be w|th|n easy reach.
Do not use extens|ons or mu|t|p|e sockets.
The power supp|y cab|e must never be bent or
dangerous|y compressed.
The power supp|y cab|e must on|y be rep|aced by
an author|sed serv|ceman.
Warn|ng! The company den|es a|| ||ab|||ty |f and when
these norms are not respected.
The first wash cycIe
Once the app||ance has been |nsta||ed, and before
you use |t for the f|rst t|me, run a wash cyc|e w|th
detergent and no |aundry, sett|ng the 90O

GeneraI safety
Th|s app||ance has been des|gned for non-
profess|ona|, househo|d use and |ts funct|ons must
not be changed.
Th|s wash|ng mach|ne shou|d on|y be used by
adu|ts and |n accordance w|th the |nstruct|ons
prov|ded |n th|s manua|.
Never touch the wash|ng mach|ne when barefoot
or w|th wet or damp hands or feet.
Do not pu|| on the power supp|y cab|e to unp|ug
the app||ance from the e|ectr|c|ty socket. Pu|| the
p|ug out yourse|f.
Do not open the detergent d|spenser wh||e the
app||ance |s |n operat|on.
Do not touch the dra|n water as |t cou|d reach
very h|gh temperatures.
Never force the wash|ng mach|ne door: th|s cou|d
damage the safety |ock mechan|sm des|gned to
prevent any acc|denta| open|ngs.
|n the event of a ma|funct|on, do not under any
c|rcumstances touch |nterna| parts |n order to
attempt repa|rs.
A|ways keep ch||dren we|| away from the
app||ance wh||e |n operat|on.
The app||ance door tends to get qu|te hot dur|ng
the wash cyc|e.
Shou|d |t have to be moved, proceed w|th the
he|p of two or three peop|e and hand|e |t w|th the

be re-used.
The European D|rect|ve 2002/96/EO on Waste
E|ectr|ca| and E|ectron|c Equ|pment, requ|res that
o|d househo|d e|ectr|ca| app||ances must not be
d|sposed of |n the norma| unsorted mun|c|pa|
waste stream. O|d app||ances must be co||ected
separate|y |n order to opt|m|se the recovery and
recyc||ng of the mater|a|s they conta|n and reduce
the |mpact on human hea|th and the
env|ronment. The crossed out "whee|ed b|n"
symbo| on the product rem|nds you of your
