Loosen or tighten the feet to adjust
the level. A correct adjustment of
the appliance level prevents
vibration, noise and the movement
of the appliance when in operation.
11.2Positioning
Use a spirit level on the top and
side of the washing machine to
check the levels.
If you do not have a spirit level, as a
guide use the edge of a door frame,
cupboard or bench to check that the
washing machine is leveled.
It is important that your washing
machine stands firm and leveled
on the floor to ensure correct
operation. The appliance must not
be installed behind a lockable
door, a sliding door or a door with
a hinge on the opposite side to
avoid restricting the washing
machine door.

ENGLISH
Never place cardboard, wood or
similar materials under the
machine to compensate for any
unevenness in the floor. Install the
machine on a flat hard floor. Make
sure that air circulation around the
machine is not impeded by carpets,
rugs etc.
When the washing machine is
levelled, try to rock it from corner to
corner. If it does rock, adjust the
legs again until it is levelled and
does not rock.
Connect the water inlet hose to a
tap with 3/4” BSP thread.
Use the hose supplied with the
washing machine. DO NOT USE
OLD HOSES.
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.
11.3 Water Inlet
Check that the machine does not
touch the wall or cupboard units.
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.
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
twisted or curled. Run it along
the floor; only the part near the
drainage point must be raised.
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 will be emptied.
