Installation and removal
When Margherita
arrives
Whether new or just transported to a new house,
installation is extremely important for the correct
functioning of your washing machine.
After removing the appliance
from its packaging, check that it
is intact. If in doubt, contact a
qualified technician immediately.
The inside of the machine is
supported, for transportation, by
four screws on the back panel.
Before using the washing machine,
remove the screws, remove the
spacers together with the rubber
tubes attached to them (keeping
all the parts) and use the plastic
plugs provided to fill in the holes.
Important: Use the cap (provided)
to close the 3 holes which housed
the stop pin, situated in the right-
hand part of the lower back of the
washing machine.
Levelling
The washing machine must be
levelled appropriatey in order to
guarantee its correct functioning.
To level the appliance, the front
feet must be adjusted; the angle
of inclination, measured
according to the worktop, must
not exceed 2°. When placed on
carpet, make sure the ventilation
is not reduced.
The front feet are adjustable.
Retain the transit screws,
spacers and washers.
Should you move house
then these should be
replaced to support the
inside of the machine to
prevent damage when
transporting the
machine.

Connection to the water
mains
Connect the supply pipe to the
water mains using a gas 3/4
attachment, fitting the rubber
gasket supplied with the
appliance and ensuring that they
are fimly tightened to the taps.
The water supply marked C must
be connected to the cold water
tap; the pipe marked H must be
connected to the hot water tap.
Both pipes may be connected to
the cold water tap using the
special Y connection with multi-
ple attachments, supplied with
the appliance.
Warning: clean the filters
regularly by rinsing it under
running water.

If the water piping is new or has
been unused for some time, run
the water before making the
connection until it is quite clear.
Remember that impure water may
damage the washer. Connect the
other end of the pipe to the
appliance, at the top on the right,
by the water connection.

Connecting the drain
hose
There are two hooks (right or left)
on the rear of your washing
machine to which the drain hose
is to be fixed. Insert the other end
in a stand pipe or place it on the
edge of a sink or tub avoiding
excessive kinks and bending. It
should be placed at a height
ranging from 60 to 100 cm. If it is
necessary to fix the end of the
hose at a height below 60 cm from
the ground, it must be fixed in the
appropriate hook placed on the
upper part of the back panel.
The hook to be used in case the drain
hose ends at a height below 60 cm.
If the drains hose empties into a
tub or sink then fit the plastic
guide and secure it to the tap.
The guide for draining into tubs and
sinks.
The end of the drain hose must
be positioned so that it cannot
become submerged.
Extensions are unadvisable. In
case of absolute need, the
extension must have the same
diameter as the original hose and
must not exceed 150 cm. In case
of wall draining pipes, their
efficiency must be checked by a
qualified technician. If the
dwelling is on one of the upper
floors of a building, there may be
drain trap problems causing the
washing machine to load and
unload water continuously.
In order to avoid such an
inconvenience, special anti-drain
trap valves are available in shops.
