BEFORE USING THE WASHING MACHINE
1.Removing the packaging and check
• After unpacking, make sure that the washing
machine is undamaged. If in doubt, do not use the
washing machine. Contact After-Sales Service or
your local retailer.
• Keep the packaging materials (plastic bags,
polystyrene parts, etc.) out of reach of children, as
they are potentially dangerous.
2.Remove the transit bolts
• The appliance is fitted with transit bolts to prevent
internal damage during transport. Before using
the washing machine you must remove the
transit bolts (see "Installation/Remove the transit
bolts").
3.Install the washing machine
• Remove the protective foil from the control panel.
• Move the machine without carrying it at the top.
• Install the appliance on a solid and level floor
surface, preferably in a corner of the room.
• Make sure that all four feet are stable and resting on
the floor and then check that the appliance is
perfectly level using a spirit level (see "Installation/
Adjust the feet").
4.Water supply
• Connect the water supply inlet hose in accordance
with regulations of your local water company (see
"Installation/Connect the water inlet hose").
• Water supply:
cold water only

5.Drain hose
• Connect the drain hose to the siphon or hook it
over the edge of a sink by means of the "U" bend
(see "Installation/Connect the water drain hose").
• If the washing machine is connected to a built-in
drainage system, ensure the latter is equipped with
a vent to avoid simultaneous loading and draining of
