Levelling
Yo r machine may make a considerable amo nt of noise
if the two front feet have not been adj sted correctly.
1. Install the washing machine on a flat st rdy floor,
witho t resting it p against walls, f rnit re cabinets
or other.
2. If the floor is not
perfectly level, compen-
sate for any nevenness
by tightening or
loosening the adj stable
front feet (see figure);
the angle of inclination,
meas red according to
the worktop, m st not
exceed 2°.
Levelling yo r appliance correctly will provide it with
stability and avoid any vibrations, noise and shifting
d ring operation. If it is placed on a fitted or loose
carpet, adj st the feet in s ch a way as to allow
eno gh room for ventilation beneath the washing
machine.
Electric and water connections
Connecting the water inlet hose

end of the inlet hose
and screw the latter
onto a cold water tap
with a 3/4 gas threaded
mo th (see figure).
Before making the
connection, allow the
water to r n freely ntil
it is perfectly clear.
2. Connect the other end
of the water inlet hose to
the washing machine,
screwing it onto the
appliance's cold water
inlet, sit ated on the top
right-hand side on the
