2.4. Twinjet Information
1. Twinjet system is designed to obtain a better washing
performance by directly injecting water with detergent
using a recirculation system and two nozzles connected
to it. With twinjet system, water consumption is
decreased by 30%, energy consumption is decreased by
10% and washing time is decreased by 15%.
2. Twinjet system is valid for all programs except spin and
drain mode. The system dos not function during Water
inlet, heating, spinning, drain phases.
3. Even with a large load of 8 kg. the washing machine will
have the minimum energy consumption by the help of
Twinjet system.
4. Washing machines with Twinjet system are very environ-
ment-friendly by having maximum washing performance
with minimum water consumption.

4 Installation Instructions
4.1. Moving and Installing
4.1.1. Removal of Transportation Screw
1. Transportation screws, which are located at the back side
of the machine, must be removed before running the
machine.
2. Loosen the screws by turning them anticlockwise with a
suitable spanner.
3. Pull out the screws and rubber washers.
4. The holes where the transport screws have been
removed should be covered with the plastic transport
caps found in the accessories bag.
5. The transportation screws that have been removed from
the machine must be re-used in any future transporting of
the machine.
4.1.2. Foot Adjustment
1. Do not install machine on rugs or similar surfaces.
2. For machine to work silently and without any vibration, it
should be installed on a flat, non-slippery firm surface.
Any suspended floor must be suitably strengthened.
3. You can adjust the level of machine using its feet.
4. First, loosen the plastic adjustment nut away from the
cabinet base.
5. Change the level by adjusting the feet upwards or down-
wards.
6. After level has been reached, tighten the plastic adjust-
ment nut again by rotating it upwards against the base of
the cabinet.
7. Never put cartons, wooden blocks or similar materials
under the machine to balance irregularities of the floor.
4.1.3. Electrical Connection
1. Washing machine requires a 50Hz supply of 220-
240Volts.
2. A special earthed plug has been attached to the supply
cord of washing machine. This plug must be fitted to an
earthed socket. The fuse value fitted to this plug should
be 13 amps. If you have any doubts about electrical sup-
ply, consult a qualified electrician.
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
Insert the machine’s plug to a grounded socket which you
can easily reach.

4.1.4. Water Supply Connection
1. Washing machine is supplied with a single (cold) water
inlet.
2. To prevent leakage from the connection joints, a rubber
washer is included in the hose packing. Fit this washer at
the end of water inlet hose on the tap side.
3. Connect the hose to the water inlet valve. Tighten the
plastic connector by hand. Please call a qualified plumber
if you are unsure about this.
4. Water pressure of 0,1-1 MPa from tap will enable
machine to work more efficiently.(0,1 MPa pressure
means water flow of more than 8 litres in 1 minute from a
fully opened tap)
5. After connection is complete, check for leakage by turning
on tap completely.
6. Make sure that water inlet hoses can not become folded,
damaged, stretched or crushed when the washing
machine is in its final position.
7. Mount the water inlet hose to a 3/4” threaded water tap.
4.1.5. Drain Connection
1. Make sure that water inlet hoses are not folded, twisted,
crushed or stretched.
2. The drain hose should be mounted at a minimum height
of 60 cm, and a maximum height of 100 cm from the floor.
3. The end of the drain hose can be connected directly to a
drainage stand-pipe or alternatively to a specific connec-
tion point designed for that purpose on the waste outlet of
a sink unit.
4. Do not extend the drain hose or guarantee will be invali-
dated.
