Installation
unevenness by tightening or loosening the 
adjustable front feet (see figure); the angle 
of inclination, measured according to the 
worktop, must not exceed 2°.
Levelling your appliance correctly will provide 
it with stability and avoid any vibrations, noise 
and shifting during operation. If it is placed on 
a fitted or loose carpet, adjust the feet in such 
a way as to allow enough room for ventilation 
beneath the washer-dryer.
Electric and water connections
Connecting the water inlet hose
1. Connect the supply 
pipe by screwing it to 
a cold water tap using 
a 3/4 gas threaded 
connection (see 
figure). 
Before performing the 
connection, allow the 
water to run freely until 
it is perfectly clear.
2. Connect the other 
end of the water inlet 
hose to the washer-
dryer, screwing it onto 
the appliance’s cold 
water inlet, situated 
on the top right-hand 
side on the rear of the 
appliance (see figure).
3. Make sure there are no kinks or bends in the 
hose.
! The water pressure at the tap must be within 
the values indicated in the Technical details 
table (on the page 5).
! If the water inlet hose is not long enough, 
contact a specialist store or an authorised 
serviceman.
! Ensure that the supply taps are allowing 
water through. Old taps may seize in the 
closed position and thus prevent water 
reaching the machine.
! Never use second-hand or old inlet hoses; 
use the products supplied with the machine.
! Keep this instruction manual in a safe place 
for future reference. Should the appliance 
be sold, transferred or moved, make sure 
the instruction manual accompanies the 
washer-dryer to inform the new owner as to its 
operation and features.
! Read these instructions carefully: they contain 
vital information on installation, use and safety.
Unpacking and levelling
Unpacking
! This is a separate 
part of the polystyrene 
base and should be 
removed with the 
base.
! IMPORTANT check 
when unpacking 
your machine.
1. Unpack the washer-dryer.
2. Check whether the washer-dryer has been 
damaged during transport. If this is the case, 
do not install it and contact your retailer.
3. Remove the 4 
protective screws and 
the rubber bush with 
the respective spacer, 
situated on the rear of 
the appliance (see also 
the installation leaflet).
4. Seal the gaps 
using the plastic plugs 
provided.
5. Keep all the parts: 
you will need them again if the washer-dryer 
needs to be moved to another location.
! Packaging materials are not children’s toys.
Levelling
Your machine may make a considerable 
amount of noise if the two front feet have not 
been adjusted correctly.
1. Install the washer-
dryer on a flat sturdy 
floor, without resting 
it up against walls, 
cabinets or anything 
else.
2. If the floor is 
not perfectly level, 
compensate for any
