5) THE RED BRACKETS THAT FASTEN
THE TUB MUST ABSOLUTELY BE
REMOVED BEFORE
STARTUP.
6) Be sure that the instruction booklet is not
left in the package and lost.
The packaging materials (plastic bags,
expanded polystyrene, wood, cardboard,
nails, etc.) represent a safety hazard and
consequently must not be left within the
reach of children. Collect and keep for further
transportation or long-term storage (see
chapter 9).
Before connecting the appliance, check that
the rating plate data correspond to those of
the existing electrical system.
The washing machine must only ever be
used for the purposes it was explicitly
designed for.
5. GETTING THE APPLIANCE
STARTED
5.1 POSITIONING REQUIREMENTS
This washing machine demands no
positioning requirement but a flat, level and
sturdy surface. Align by the use of a spirit
level.
For servicing purposes, it is advisable to
leave at least 500mm between the rear face
of the machine and the wall behind.
Besides, when machines are installed in a
line, leaving at least 30mm between one
machine and the next is recommended.
Provide for a floor drain at an elevation
below the machine drain, that can be
connected to the washing machine using the
supplied elbow fitting.
Caution! Repeat levelling after moving
the machine.
5.2 SPACE REQUIRED FOR
INSTALLATION, USE AND
MAINTENANCE
The washing machine requires the minimum
space indicated in the dimensional figures.
1) Power supply line with automatic cutoff
switch and thermomagnetic cutout
ahead.
2) Interlocked socket including fuses and
manual multipolar switch.
3) Power supply plug.
4) Shutoff taps for water inlets.
5) Recommended grille or plate for closing
drain pit.
6) Rubber hose for water drain, diam. 2"
(provided).
7) Drain pit, flow rate of 80 litres/min.
8) Circular door
9) Hard water inlet of 3/4".
10) Hot water inlet of 3/4".
11) Soft water inlet of 3/4".
12) Steam inlet of 3/4" (only on steam-
heated models).
13) Cable clamp for power supply inlet.
14) Template to be used for positioning
machine-anchoring bolts.
15) 3 tubes for hard, hot and soft water
intake (provided)
MACHINE
16) Flexible tube of 3/4" for steam
connection (steam-heated models only).
17) Mechanical filter of 3/4" (attached to
steam-heated models)
18) Steam supply line, pressure comprised
between 4 and 6 bar, consumption
approximately 15 kg/h (steam models
only).
19) Steam shutoff tap (only steam-heated
models).
20) Condensed water drain of 3/4" (only
with indirect steam models).
* The cutoff switch must be in a position
allowing easy access to the operator in
any EMERGENCY event (maximum
distance 3 m).
5.3 ALLOWABLE ROOM
CONDITIONS FOR PROPER
MACHINE SERVICE
Let these conditions be known to machine
users.
- TYPE OF ROOM: CLOSED
- MINIMUM TEMPERATURE: 10
(Caution: When ambient temperature is
below 10°C, electronic parts may work
irregularly)
-MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE: 40
-RELATIVE HUMIDITY: 75% H.R.
-LIGHTING: 100 LUX (valid for Italy; as
for other national provisions regarding
lighting in working premises, consult the
relevant national codes).
5.4 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The washing machine must be installed by
professionally qualified personnel, in
accordance with the instructions provided
by the manufacturer and with local
regulations. Incorrect installation may cause
harm to persons, animals or property. The
manufacturer disclaims all responsibility for
any such damage.
Make sure that power supply voltage
corresponds to the values appearing on the
rating plate of the washing machine. Consider
also that the maximum allowable power
voltage variation is ±10%.

IMPORTANT:

MACHINE MUST BE PROPERLY
EARTHED.
To this purpose, the terminal block is fitted
with a specific contact, which must be
connected according to the regulations in
force. The manufacturer assumes no
responsibility for any damage resulting from
nonobservance of this accident prevention
principle.
In compliance with the latest accident
prevention provisions, the machine is
provided with an external terminal for
equipotential connection.
Ahead of the washing machine there must be
an automatic multipolar cutoff switch with
contacts spacing at least 3mm, which must
be calibrated according to the maximum
rated input (see rating plate and table below):
Electrical
from 6000
to 10000 W
from 10000
to 13000 W
from 18000
to 25000 W
Place a 20 mm cable duct (outer diameter)
between the cutoff switch and the machine
electric power inlet. Being this fitted with a
clamp, after inserting the stiff duct it will be
necessary to fasten the bolts from inside the
machine.
Use one of the cable types appearing in the
table. Make sure it is fire-proof and properly
protected.
When the cable has been inserted, secure the
cable clamp from inside the machine.
5.5 WATER CONNECTION
The washing machine is fitted with a hot
°
C
water inlet (approximately 60°C) and two
cold water inlets - hard and soft - both of 3/
4''.
The incoming water pressure must be
°
C
comprised between 0.5 and 5 bar (0.05 and
0.5 MPa).
Prepare wall couplings and, ahead of them,
the appropriate cocks, which must not be
farther than the length of the pipes supplied.
If hot water is not available, mount a T pipe
on the soft cold-water coupling and connect
all three inlets to the cold-water pipe.

Mod.11
Mod.18
When the connection is finished make sure
that the pipes are not crushed or blocked.
5.6 STEAM CONNECTION
(steam-heated machines only)
The washing machine is fitted with a 3/4"
steam inlet. The incoming steam pressure
THE WASHING
must be between 1 and 6 bar (0.1 and 0.6
MPa). The recommended pressure for best
machine performance is between 4 and 6
bar. If doubts should arise, read the rating
plate data. Steam is intended as saturated
and dry.
The water in the tub can be heated either
directly or indirectly. In the latter instance, a
coupling for the recovery of condensed water
will have to be provided for (diameter 3/4").
If the machine is subjected to ISPESL
inspection, keep all ISPESL documents in
the room where the washing machine is
lodged.
When the connection is finished be sure that
the pipe is not crushed or blocked.
