INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Instructions for Use 8
Placing and Installation
If the floor is uneven, use the adjustable feet to
level the machine.
• Undo the nuts. Rotate the feet to level the
machine (fig. 5).
• Fix the nuts (fig. 5.1).
Maximum height of the washing machine is
33.5 in.
IMPORTANT
The floor on which the machine stands should be
dry, otherwise the machine may slide during the
spinning cycle.
Connection to the Water Supply
The hose connections inclusive of the 90º elbow
and coupling must be connected to the water
inlet valves located on the rear wall of the
appliance. The hose connections inclusive of the
straight line coupling must be connected to the
water (faucet) supply (See Fig. 6)
. To ensure efficient operation, the water
pressure of the water supply should be between
7 and 116 psi.
If the pressure exceeds the maximum allowed
limit, fit a pressure regulator. (Open the tap fully -
in 15 seconds, 0.8 gal. of water should pour out;
and this is the minimum pressure of the water
supply).
Connection to hot/cold water
Washing machines designed for connections to
hot/cold water are equipped with two inlet hoses.
Each hose is identified with a “red” or “blue”
stripe running the entire length of the hose.
Red Stripe = Hot Water Hose Connection
Blue Stripe = Cold Water Hose Connection.
Insert rubber washer with screen (filter) inside
(straight line) coupling and connect to the
faucet/tap. (Fig. 6) Insert regular rubber washer
inside (90º) coupling and connect to water inlet
valve.
IMPORTANT
The highest allowed temperature of hot water is
140°F.
Water Outlet
Hook the outlet hose securely over the edge of
the washbasin or bath tub. The outlet hose can
also be connected directly to the plumbing outlet,
the diameter of which should be not less than 1.6
in. (fig. 7).
Wall siphon drain must be correctly fitted in such
manner to enable cleaning.
If water is drained through a washbasin, always
check it is drained quickly enough, otherwise an
overflow may occur or the machine may pump
the water back. Pull a string through the hole on
the plastic elbow, and secure the outlet hose to
prevent it from falling off (fig. 8).
The end of the outlet hose should be raised from
the floor by not more than 40 in. and not less
than 24 in. If the hose is positioned higher than
recommended, the machine will not pump out the
water.
Connection to Power Supply
Connect the appliance to the power supply using
the power cord. The electrical outlet should be
equipped with a properly grounded contact
(safety socket).
Rated voltage, frequency and other data are
listed on the rating plate of the machine.
Your washing machine should be grounded
and connected to the power supply according
to local electricity board regulations and
standards.
Connect to individual branch circuit.
WARNING!
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer or his service
agent or a qualified person in order to avoid
hazard.
• The appliance must be installed so that power
cord plug is within reach of the appliance.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
