If you want to keep the alignment of your appliance
with the adjacent cupboards, you have the possibility
to cut the crossbar holding the hoses located in the
back of your washing machine (fig. 6).
Electrical connection
Before you plug the appliance into the wall socket, make sure that :
• The supply voltage of the domestic wiring system
does not fluctuate by more than 10% plus or minus
from the value shown on the rating plate.
• The meter, the fuses, the supply line and the wall
socket are all suitable to carry the maximum load
required by the washing machine (2,3 kW).
The existing safety rules call for the appliance to be
connected to an efficient ground wire.
The manufacturer disclaims any liability whatsoever if
this accident prevention rule is not complied with.
This appliance complies with E.E.C. directive n° 87-308
of 06.1987 relative to radio interference suppression
and with E.E.C. directive n° 73-23 relative to electrical
safety.
Water connection
• The end of the water inlet hose must be connected to a cold water tap having 3/4" gas thread
spout or to a water tap having a quick-coupling connector after having introduced in the hose
ring nut a rubber sealing washer also provided with the machine.
• The curved end of the outlet hose should be inserted into a drain pipe not less than 70 cm and
not more than 1,0 m from floor level.
Make sure that the drain hose is always safely secured so that it will not become loose or fall
down from its position.
The water should drain freely and consequently, the drain hose should not be chocked or
placed in such a way as to obstruct the normal water flow.
If an extension is required, remember that it might cause a malfunction in the drain pump,
particularly if the extension has a length in excess of 1 meter or if the diameter of the extension
is smaller than the diameter of the original drain hose.
Water pressure :
minimum : 5 N/cm
Positioning and Levelling
To enable the appliance
to be moved with ease,
it is provided with two
fixed wheels located at
the rear of the base.

the front bottom behind a small
flapdoor. If you wash laundry with a
