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 (2,2 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.
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.
