Installation

Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for

future reference. Should the appliance be sold,

transferred or moved, make sure the instruction

manual accompanies the washer-dryer to inform the

new owner as to its operation and features.

Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital

information on installation, use and safety.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking

1. Unpack the washer-dryer.

2. Check whether the washer-dryer has been

damaged during transport. If this is the case, do not

install it and contact your retailer.

3. Remove the four

protective screws and

the rubber bush with the

respective spacer,

situated on the rear of

the appliance (see also

the installation leaflet).

NB:The plastic spacers

may fall down inside the

machine once the bolt

has been removed, and will not interfere with the

operation of the machine.

4. Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs provided.

5. Keep all the parts: you will need them again if the

washing machine needs to be moved to another

location.

Packaging materials are not children's toys.

Levelling

1. Install the washer-dryer on a flat sturdy floor,

without resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets

or other.

2. If the floor is not

perfectly level, compen-

sate for any unevenness

by tightening or

loosening the adjustable

front feet (see figure);

the angle of inclination,

measured according to

the worktop, must not

exceed 2°.

Levelling your appliance correctly will provide it with

stability and avoid any vibrations, noise and shifting

during operation. If it is placed on a fitted or loose

carpet, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow

enough room for ventilation beneath the washer-

dryer.

Electric and water connections

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Connect the supply

pipe to the water mains,

fitting the rubber gasket

and the filter supplied with

the appliance and

ensuring that they are

fimly tightened to the

taps.

The water supply marked

C must be connected to

the cold water tap; the pipe marked H must be

connected to the hot water tap. Both pipes may be

connected to the cold water tap using the special Y

connection with multiple attachments, supplied with the

appliance (see figure).

Before making the connection, allow the water to run

freely until it is perfectly clear.

2. Connect the other end

of the water inlet hose to

the washer-dryer,

screwing it onto the

appliance's cold water

inlet, situated on the top

right-hand side on the

rear of the appliance

(see figure).

3. Make sure there are no kinks or bends in the

hose.

The water pressure at the tap must be within the

values indicated in the Technical details table

(on the next page).

If the water inlet hose is not long enough, contact

a specialist store or an authorised serviceman.

Ensure that the supply taps are allowing water

through. Old taps may seize in the closed position

and thus prevent water reaching the machine.
