connected correctly; if not, exchange two of
the incoming phases.
IMPORTANT: In order to prevent accidental
inversion, let the importance of phase cyclic
direction be known to the customer, user or
person in charge of the laundry equipment.
5.6 WATER CONNECTION
The washing machine is fitted with a warm
water inlet (approximately 60°C) and a cold
water inlet, both of 3/4''.
The incoming water pressure must be
comprised between 0.5 and 5 bar (0.05 and
0.5 MPa).
Prepare wall couplings and, ahead of them,
the appropriate cocks, which must not be
farther than the length of the pipes supplied.
If a warm water source is not available,
mount a T pipe on the cold-water coupling
and connect the warm water inlet to the cold-
water source. Both inlets must anyway be
fed water.

When the connection is done make sure that
the pipes are not crushed or blocked.
5.7 STEAM CONNECTION (steam-
heated machines only)
The washing machine is fitted with a 3/4"
steam inlet. The incoming steam pressure
must be between 1 and 6 bar (0.01 and 0.6
MPa). The recommended pressure for best
machine performance is between 4 and 6 bar.
If doubts should arise, read the rating plate
data. Steam is intended as saturated and dry.
The water in the tub can be heated either
directly or indirectly. In the latter instance, a
connection for the recovery of condensed water
will have to be provided for (diameter 3/4").
If the machine is subject to ISPESL inspection,
keep all ISPESL documents in the room
where the washer is lodged.
When the connection is done make sure that
the pipes are not crushed or blocked.
5.8 DRAIN CONNECTION
Make certain that the distance between the
machine drain outlet and the floor drain is
not longer than the drain elbow supplied.
Water is drained through a direct-action
motor-driven valve that stays open (by
gravity) when the machine is not powered.
Therefore, the floor drain must always be
below the machine drain outlet. The diameter
of the floor drain must never be smaller than
that of the supplied hose.

Drain flow-rate
Mod. 8/11/18

Mod. 24-37

The draining pipe must be able to resist a
temperature of 90°C.
Install a trap between the hose supplied and
the drain.
Check that the hose is not crushed or blocked.
5.9 AIR BREAK
The washing machine is equipped with an
air-break device to stop wastewater from
flowing back into the drinkable water system
in the event of a depression. This device has
a rear outlet that may liberate innocuous
steam during heating. Do not close or couple
the air-break outlet.

DAMAGE CAUSED BY INCORRECT
INSTALLATION.

7. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE AND
ORDINARY MAINTENANCE
7.1 OPERATION
As soon as the washing machine is switched
on, the display reads the software version
installed and the software release date for a
few seconds.
CAUTION!
The release date refers to the software
installed and has nothing to do with
machine assembly or testing and is no
reference date for guarantee purposes.
The display then lists various details, i.e,
from top left:
- the number denoting the program selected.
- the maximum wash temperature that the
program achieves.
- the length of the whole program, including
water in-taking and draining, heating and
cooling down. Such time values are those
that the machine has stored in previous
equivalent cycles. Therefore they are not
binding but represent a mere reference.
- cycle type, i.e. whether it is delicate, medium
or strong.
- program name, e.g. whites, woolens,
curtains etc.
- the words "WAITING FOR START" if the
door is closed or "door open" if it is open.
When either the " UP" or " DOWN" key is
pressed, the display reads the steps
composing the wash program for a few
seconds.
Program SELECTION and consequently all
the relevant details, incl. maximum
temperature, total cycle time, can be changed
by pressing the "SELECT" plus either the
" UP" or " DOWN" key. All indicated values
refer to the new program selection.
When the door is closed, the "DOOR OPEN"
reading is dismissed and the " waiting for
START" reading takes over. The program
selected can now be started by simply pressing
