When Margherita
arrives
Whether new or just transported to a new house,
installation is extremely important for the correct
functioning of your washer-dryer.
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
blocked, for transportation, by
four screws on the back panel.
Before using the washer-dryer,
remove the screws, remove the
rubber with the aid of the special
spacer (keeping all the parts) and
use the plastic tabs 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
washer-dryer.
A
Part A must not be removed.

Levelling

The washer-dryer 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 hampered
within its surroundings.
Do not throw the
blocking screws and
the spacers away. In
the event of a removal,
they can be used to
block the components
inside the appliance
again and so to protect
it during transport.

Margherita - Instructions for installation and use

Installation and removal

The front feet are adjustable.
Connection to the water
mains
Water pressure must range within
the values indicated on the data
plate on the rear of your washer-
dryer. If the water pipes are new
or left unused, then before
connecting the machine run the
water until clear to remove
debris. Connect the inlet hose to
a cold water tap having a ¾ “ BSP
thread. Ensure that the rubber
sealing washer-dryers are fitted at
each end of the inlet hose, with the
fitter washer-dryer at the tap end.

Connecting the drain
hose
There are two hooks (right or
left) on the rear of your washer-
dryer to which the drain hose is
to be fixed. Insert the other end
in a duct 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. In
case 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.

hose ends at a height below 60 cm.
If the tube drains into a tub or
sink, apply the plastic guide and
tie it to the tap.

sinks.
It must never remain immersed
in water.
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
washer-dryer to load and unload
water continuously.
In order to avoid such an
inconvenience, special anti-drain
trap valves are available in shops.

Electric connection

Before connecting the appliance
to the electric socket, be sure
that:
1) the electric socket is able to
sustain the appliance’s
maximum power load
indicated on the data plate
and in compliance with the
law;
2) the supply voltage is included
within the values indicated
on the data plate;
3) the socket is compatible with
the appliance’s plug. If not,
do not use adapters, but
replace either the socket or
the plug;
4) electric household appliances
must be equipped with an
“earthing” system.
