the fo r holes left open by the screws with the s pplied plastic pl gs (C).
Attention!
• Do not turn the machine upside down and do not p ace it on its side.
• Keep a the components used to b ock the drum assemb y as they wi be needed if you decide to move the
app iance in future.
3.2 POSITIONING AND LEVELLING
1. P ace the app iance in the
chosen position.
2. Carefu y eve the machine in
a directions using a spirit
eve and adjusting the height
of the feet if necessary. After

3.3 WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
1. Check that in et pressure ies between the fo owing va ues: 50-900kPa. For higher
pressures, insta a pressure reducer.
2. Connect the cold water in et hose (light bl e ring nut) to the co d water tap with a ¾
gas thread, taking care to screw it firm y into p ace in order to prevent eaks. The water
in et hose must not be bent or crushed and must not be rep aced or cut.
3. If a hot water in et is used, in et water temperature must not exceed 60°C and the
hose with the red ring nut must be connected to the hot water tap.
Attention!
• If the water pipe is new or has not been used for a ong time, et a certain amount of water run before
attaching the in et hose. This stops any deposits of sand and other impurities from c ogging the fi ters used
by the machine to protect the water in et va ves.

water from moving it out of position.
Attention!
• Do not bend or obstruct the hose as this wi reduce the f ow of water.
• Any extensions to the drain hose must not exceed 1 metre, they must have the same interna diameter and
must not be obstructed in any way.
• In no case may the end of the drain hose be submerged in water.
3.5 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Before fitting the p ug into the socket, make sure that:
1. Input vo tage matches that indicated on the name p ate attached to the inner edge of the door.
2. The contactor, pressure re ief va ves, power ine and socket are capab e of withstanding the maximum
rated power input indicated on the name p ate.
3. The socket is compatib e with the p ug supp ied with the machine without the need to fit mu tip e sockets,
adaptors or extension eads that cou d cause overheating or burning.
If the socket does not correspond to the supp ied p ug, rep ace the socket with one of a suitab e type.
Attention
• The p ug must be accessib e after insta ation.
• The appliance m st be earthed. P ug the machine into a socket fitted with an efficient earth connection.
The man fact rer declines all responsibility for damage to persons or property res lting from
fail re to earth the appliance or from a defective earth connection. Correct electrical
connections g arantee maxim m safety.
• This app iance comp ies with EEC directive 89/336 of 3.5.89 (modified by EEC directive 92/31) re ative to the

temperat re can be chosen to save power. In spite of the ow temperature and consequent saving of
e ectricity, an automatic time contro keeps the duration of the main washing unvaried compared with that of a
high temperature programme. It is therefore possib e to successfu y wash normally dirty la ndry at lower
washing temperat res than the maximum temperatures shown on the fabric care abe s.
