Indesit sixxl 129 s User Manual

Installation

This instruction manual should be kept in a safe

place for future reference. If the appliance is sold,

transferred or moved, make sure that the instruction

manual remains with the machine so that the new

owner is able to familiarise himself/herself with its

operation and features.

Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital

information relating to the safe installation and

operation of the appliance.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking

1. Unpack the washing machine.

2. Make sure that the machine has not been

damaged during the transportation process. If it has

been damaged, contact the retailer and do not

proceed any further with the installation process.

3. Remove the 4

protective screws (used

during transportation)

and the rubber washer

with the corresponding

spacer, located on the

rear part of the appliance

(see figure).

4. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs

provided.

5. Keep all the parts in a safe place: they will be

needed again if the washing machine is moved to

another location.

Packaging materials should not be used as toys for

children.

Levelling

Your machine may make a considerable amount of

noise if the two front feet have not been adjusted

correctly.

1. Install the washing machine on a flat and sturdy

floor, without placing it against walls, cabinets or

other furniture.

2. If the floor is not

perfectly level, compen-

sate for any unevenness

by tightening or loosening

the adjustable front feet

(see figure); the angle of

inclination, measured in

relation to the worktop,

must not exceed 2°.

Levelling the machine correctly will provide it with

stability, help to avoid vibrations and excessive noise

and prevent it from shifting while it is operating. If it is

placed on carpet or a rug, adjust the feet in such a

way as to allow a sufficient ventilation space

underneath the machine.

Connecting the electricity and water

supplies

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Insert seal A into the

end of the inlet hose and

screw the latter onto a

cold water tap with a 3/4

gas threaded opening

(see figure).

Before performing the

connection, allow the

water to run freely until it

is perfectly clear.

2. Connect the inlet hose

to the machine by

screwing it onto the cold

water inlet of the

appliance, which is

situated on the top right-

hand side of the rear part

of the appliance(see

figure).

3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over or bent.

The water pressure at the tap must fall within the

values indicated in the Technical details table (see

next page).

If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a

specialised shop or an authorised technician.
