Installation

! This instruction manual should be kept in a safe
GB
place for future reference. If the washer dryer is
sold, transferred or moved, make sure that the
instruction manual remains with the machine so
that the new owner is able to familiarise himself/
herself with its operation and features.
! Read these instructions carefully: they contain
vital information relating to the safe installation
and operation of the appliance.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking
1. Remove the washer dryer from its packaging.
2. Make sure that the washer dryer has not been
damaged during the transportation process. If it
has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not
proceed any further with the installation process.
4. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs
provided.
5. Keep all the parts in a safe place: you will
need them again if the washer dryer needs to
be moved to another location.
! Packaging materials 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 ca-
binets or anything else.

3. Remove the 4 pro-
tective screws (used
during transportation)
and the rubber washer
with the corresponding
spacer, located on the
rear part of the applian-
ce (see figure).
2. If the floor is not per-
fectly level, compensa-
te for any unevenness
by tightening or loo-
sening the adjustable
front feet (see figure);
the angle of inclination,
measured in relation to
the worktop, must not
exceed 2°.
Levelling the machine correctly will provide it with
stability, help to avoid vibrations and excessive
noise and prevent it from shifting while it is ope-
rating. 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 water inlet hose
3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over
or bent.
! The water pressure at the tap must 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 machine.
1. Connect the supply
pipe by screwing it to
a cold water tab using
a ¾ gas threaded con-
nection (see figure).
Before performing the
connection, allow the
water to run freely until
it is perfectly clear.
2. Connect the inlet
hose to the washer dr-
yer by screwing it onto
the corresponding wa-
ter inlet of the applian-
ce, which is situated on
the top right-hand side
of the rear part of the
appliance (see figure).
