Installation
Before installing the machine, ensure that the mains plug and water supply valves are
easily accessible from your chosen machine location.
Make sure there is enough space for the machine. Select a space at least 600mm wide
and 850mm high. Also leave enough space to open the door fully so you can load
and unload it easily.
Keep the area underneath and around the machine free of combustible materials such
as lint, paper, rags, chemicals etc.
All machines are tested with water prior to leaving the factory, so a small amount of
water may be present in the drum and the drain hose.
Flooding may occur if any part of the installation process is not completed correctly.
Electricity Supply
Washing machines are supplied to operate at a voltage of 230-240V, 50 Hz single
phase. Please check that the supply circuit is rated to at least 13A.
The plug is already equipped with a 13A fuse, which is BS 1362 ASTA approved. Any
replacement must be the same rating and specification. If the fuse cover is lost, do not
use the plug until it is replaced.
Electricity can be extremely dangerous. Please take care when connecting your
machine to the electricity supply.
This washing machine must be earthed.
The socket outlet and the plug on the appliance must be of the same type.
Do not use multiple adapters and/or extension leads.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following codes:
Blue NEUTRAL
Brown LIVE
Green and Yellow EARTH
Appliance complies with European Directive 73/23/EEC, 89/336/EEC
replaced by 2006/95/EC and 2004/108/EC and subsequent amendments.

Water Supply
This machine should only be connected to a cold-water supply. The cold-water
pressure should be between 0.5 and 8 bar (0.05-0.8 Mpa).
Do not connect the machine to a single outlet instantaneous water heater.
Before connecting the fill hose, check that the water is running from the water supply
tap to be used. Let the water flow from the tap until the water runs clear before
connecting to the machine. The water supply tap should be accessible when the
machine is installed.
9
Connecting the Cold Water
Supply
Only one hose is required to install this machine to a cold water supply. Cold fill is an
energy efficient system. Only the water required to wash the laundry is heated. There
is no loss of heat in the pipeline from the hot water tank or the boiler.
If your previous machine installation was hot and cold fill ensure that the hot tap is
firmly closed to prevent leakage.
This machine has an inlet hose with a 19mm (3/4") threaded ferrule fitted to the end,
to attach between the threaded connector on the appliance and the water supply. Only
use the new hose supplied to connect the machine and ensure that the sealing washers
are in place inside the hose connectors.
Do not re-use old hoses that are attached to existing installations.
Do not over-tighten the connections. Hand tight is sufficient.
Do not trap or kink the hose.
Step 1. Connect the elbow end of the hose
provided to the threaded inlet on the back of the
machine.
The grey pipe needs to connect to the white
threaded inlet on the machine.
Step 2. Hand tighten the connector.
Step 3. Connect the straight ends of the pipes to
the water supply; ensure that there are no kinks.
Step 4. Turn on the water supply and check there
are no leaks. If there is a leak, turn off the water
supply, disconnect the hose and check the sealing
washers are in place. Refit the hose and turn on
the water supply.
