3. INSTALLATION
3.1. Unpacking
Packing used to protect internal parts of the washing machine during transport must be removed before the washing machine is put into service for the first time. Remove all packing from the washing machine. Tilt the washing machine sideways and then remove the packing under the motor, and straighten the washing machine.
3.2. Position
Put the washing machine on a flat hard floor in a well ventilated room. Make sure that your washing machine does not touch the wall or any other furniture in the room.
3.3. Leveling
Precise leveling will prevent vibrations, noise and movements of the washing machine during operation. Make the washing machine level by adjusting the leveling screw that is too short. Unscrew the stand and locking collar assembly (lift the washing machine if necessary).
Tilt the washing machine backwards, rotate it by a quarter of a turn on one of its corner to remove the transport base.
When the washing machine is stable, maintain the stand on the ground and turn the locking collar as far as posible.
Open the washing machine lid and remove the immobilization packing and plastic films. Close the lid.
3.4. Water inlet
Screw the supply ppe con-nector onto the water inlet tap (20x27 mm), remembering to use the washer provided with the washing machine. Open the water inlet tap. You cannot prolong the water inlet pipe. If it is too short, buy a longer pipe provided for this purpose.
Use a 10 mm spanner to remove the two screws and spacers at the back.
You can now see the openings that must be closed with the caches in the pack attached to the washing machine; do not forget to fold down the central capsule.
3.5. Drain
The drain siphon must be placed inside a drain pipe (or in a washbasin) at a height of between 70 and 100 cm. Make sure that it cannot fall. �Important: the drain pipe must never be prolonged. If it is too short, call a professional.
Make sure that you have removed all these parts from your washing machine and keep them so that you can use them again if you need them for future transport.
3.6. Electrical connection
You can only connect this washing machine to 230 V single phase power supply. Check rating of the fuse line: 10 A at 230V. The washing machine must not be connected through an extension cable or a power bar. Check that the earthing connection is conform with the regulations in force.
If you want to keep your washing machine aligned with the adjacent furniture, you can cut the pipe support strip at the back of your washing machine. Leave the two side closers in place.
