Connecting the drain hose

We advise against the use of hose extensions; in
case of absolute need, the extension must have the
same diameter as the original hose and must not
exceed 150 cm in length.

Electric connection

Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket,
make sure that:
• the socket is earthed and in compliance with the
applicable law;
• the socket is able to sustain the appliance's
maximum power load indicated in the Technical
details table (on the right);
• the supply voltage is included within the values i
ndicated on the Technical details table
(on the right);
• the socket is compatible with the washing
machine's plug. If this is not the case, replace the
socket or the plug.

The washing machine should not be installed in an
outdoor environment, not even when the area is
sheltered, because it may be very dangerous to leave
it exposed to rain and thunderstorms.
Connect the drain hose,
without bending it, to a
draining duct or a wall
drain situated between
65 and 100 cm from the
floor;
alternatively, place it over
the edge of a basin, sink
or tub, fastening the
duct supplied to the tap
(see figure). The free end
of the hose should not
be underwater.

When the washing machine is installed, the main
socket must be within easy reach.

Do not use extensions or multiple sockets.

The power supply cable must never be bent or
dangerously compressed.

The power supply cable must only be replaced by
an authorised serviceman.
Warning! The company denies all liability if and when
these norms are not respected.

The first wash cycle

Once the appliance has been installed, and before
you use it for the first time, run a wash cycle with
detergent and no laundry, setting the 90°C programme
without a pre-wash cycle.
