Installation
 This instruction anual should be kept in a safe
place for future reference. If the washer dryer is sold,
transferred or oved, ake sure that the instruction
anual re ains with the achine so that the new
owner is able to fa iliarise hi self/herself with its
operation and features.
 Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital
infor ation relating to the safe installation and
operation of the appliance.
Unpacking and levelling
Unpacking
1. Re ove the washer dryer fro its packaging.
2. Make sure that the washer dryer has not been
da aged during the transportation process. If it has
been da aged, contact the retailer and do not
proceed any further with the installation process.
3. Re ove the 4
protective screws (used
during transportation) and
the rubber washer with
the corresponding
spacer, located on the
rear part of the appliance
(see figure).
4. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs provided.
5. Keep all the parts in a safe place: you will need
the again if the washer dryer needs to be oved to
another location.
 Packaging aterials should not be used as toys for
children.
Levelling
1. Install the washer dryer on a flat sturdy floor,
without resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets
or anything else.
2. If the floor is not
perfectly level, co pen-
sate for any unevenness
by tightening or loosening
the adjustable front feet
(see figure); the angle of
inclination, easured in
relation to the worktop,
ust not exceed 2°.
Levelling the achine correctly will provide it with
stability, help to avoid vibrations and excessive noise
and prevent it fro shifting while it is operating. If it is
placed on carpet or a rug, adjust the feet in such a
way as to allow a sufficient ventilation space
underneath the washer dryer.
Connecting the electricity and water
supplies
Connecting the water inlet hose
1. Insert seal A into the
end of the inlet hose and
screw the latter onto a
cold water tap with a 3/4
gas threaded opening
(see figure).
Before perfor ing the
connection, allow the
water to run freely until it
is perfectly clear.
2. Connect the inlet hose
to the washer dryer by
screwing it onto the
corresponding water inlet
of the appliance, which is
situated on the top right-
hand side of the rear part
of the appliance (see
figure).
3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over or bent.
 The water pressure at the tap ust fall within the
values indicated in the Technical details table (see
next page).
 If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a
specialised shop or an authorised technician.
 Never use second-hand hoses.
 Use the ones supplied with the achine.

Instructions for the fitter
Mounting the wooden panel onto the door and
inserting the machine into cabinets:
In the case where the achine ust be shipped for final
installation after the wooden panel has been ounted, we
suggest leaving it in its original packaging. The packaging
was designed to ake it possible to ount the wooden
panel onto the achine without re oving it co pletely
(see figures below).
The wooden panel that covers the face of the achine
ust not be less than 18 mm in thickness and can be
hinged on either the right or left. For the sake of
practicality when using the achine, we reco end that
the panel be hinged on the sa e side as the door for the
achine itself - the left.

Using the Drilling Template.
- To trace the positions of the holes on the left-hand side
of the panel, align the drilling te plate to the top left side
of the panel using the lines traced on the extre ities as a
reference.
- To trace the positions of the holes on the right-hand
side of the panel, align the drilling te plate to the top
right side of the panel.
- Use an appropriately sized router to ill the holes for
the two hinges, the rubber plug and the agnet.
Mounding the Parts onto the Wooden Panel (Door).
- Insert the hinges into the holes (the ovable part of the
hinge ust be positioned facing away fro the panel) and
fasten the with the 4 type A screws.
- Insert the agnet into the top hole on the opposite side
of the hinges and fasten it with the two type B screws.
- Insert the rubber plug into the botto hole.
The panel is now ready to be ounted onto the achine.
Mounting the Panel into the machine.
Insert the nib of the hinge (indicated by the arrow in fig. 2)
into the hole for the hinge and push the panel towards the
front of the achine. Fasten the two hinges with the type
D screws.
Fastening the plinth guide.
If the achine is installed at the end of a set of odular
cabinets, ount either one or both of the guides for the
base olding (as shown in fig. 8). Adjust the for depth
based on the position of the base olding, and, if
necessary, fasten the base to the guides (fig. 9).
This is how to asse ble the plinth guide (fig. 8):
Fasten angle P using screw R, insert plinth guide Q into
the special slot and once it is in the desired position, lock
it in place using angle P and screw R.
Inserting the machine into the Cabinet.
- Push the achine into the opening, aligning it with the
cabinets (fig. 6).
- Regulate the adjustable feet to raise the achine to the
appropriate height.
- To adjust the position of the wooden panel in both the
vertical and horizontal directions, use the C and D
screws, as shown in fig. 7.
Important: lose the lower part of the applian e front by
ensuring that the plinth rests against the floor.

Accessories provided for the height adjustment.
The following can be found inside the polystyrene lid (fig. 10):
2 crossbars (G), 1 strip (M)
the following can be found inside
the appliance dru :
4 additional feet (H),
4 screws (I),
4 screws (R),
4 nuts (L),

Adjusting the appliance height.
The height of the appliance can be adjusted (fro 815
to 835 ), by turning the 4 feet.
Should you require the appliance to be placed higher than
the above height, you need to use the following accessories
to raise it to up to 870 :
the two crossbars (G); the 4 feet (H); the 4 screws (I); the 4
nuts (L) then perfor the following operations (fig. 11):
re ove the 4 original feet, place a crossbar G at the front of
the appliance, fastening it in place using screws I (screwing
the in where the original feet were) then insert the new feet H.
Repeat the sa e operation at the back of the appliance.
Now adjust feet H to raise or lower the appliance fro 835
to 870 .
Once you have reached the desired height, lock nuts L onto
crossbar G.
To adjust the appliance to a height between 870 and
900 , you need to ount strip M, adjusting feet H to the
required height.
Insert the strip as follows:
loosen the three screws N situated at the front of the Top
cover of the appliance, insert strip M as shown in fig. 12,
