products cause risks for your safety.
C  Make sure that the water inlet and 
discharge hoses as well as the power 
cable are not folded, pinched or 
crushed while pushing the product into 
its place after installation or cleaning 
procedures.
Appropriate installation location
•  Place the machine on a rigid floor. Do 
not place it on a long pile rug or similar 
surfaces.
•  Total weight of the washing machine 
and the dryer -with full load- when 
they are placed on top of each other 
reaches to approx. 180 kilograms. 
Place the product on a solid and flat 
floor that has sufficient load carrying 
capacity!
•  Do not place the product on the power

•  Do not install the product at places 
where temperature may fall below 0ºC.
•  Place the product at least 1 cm away 
from the edges of other furniture.
Removing packaging 
reinforcement
Tilt the machine backwards to remove 
the packaging reinforcement. Remove the 
packaging reinforcement by pulling the 
ribbon.
Removing the 
transportation locks
A Do not remove the transportation 
locks before taking out the packaging 
reinforcement.
A Remove the transportation safety 
bolts before operating the washing 
machine, otherwise, the product will be 
damaged.
1.  Loosen all the bolts with a spanner until 
they rotate freely (C).
2. Remove transportation safety bolts by 
turning them gently.  
						

							9EN
3. Attach the plastic covers supplied in 
the User Manual bag into the holes on 
the rear panel. (P)
C Keep the transportation safety bolts in 
a safe place to reuse when the washing 
machine needs to be moved again in 
the future.
C Never move the product without the 
transportation safety bolts properly 
fixed in place!
Connecting water supply
C The water supply pressure required 
to run the product is between 1 to 10 
bars (0.1 – 10 MPa). It is necessary 
to have 10 – 80 liters of water flowing 
from the fully open tap in one minute 
to have your machine run smoothly. 
Attach a pressure reducing valve if 
water pressure is higher.
C If you are going to use the double 
water-inlet product as a single (cold) 
water-inlet unit, you must install the 
supplied stopper to the hot water valve 
before operating the product. (Applies 
for the products supplied with a blind 
stopper group.)
C If you want to use both water inlets 
of the product, connect the hot water 
hose after removing the stopper and 
gasket group from the hot water valve. 
(Applies for the products supplied with 
a blind stopper group.)
A Models with a single water inlet should 
not be connected to the hot water 
tap. In such a case the laundry will get 
damaged or the product will switch to 
protection mode and will not operate.
A Do not use old or used water inlet 
hoses on the new product. It may 
cause stains on your laundry.
1.  Connect the special hoses supplied 
with the product to the water inlets 
on the product. Red hose (left) (max. 
90 ºC) is for hot water inlet, blue hose 
(right) (max. 25 ºC) is for cold water 
inlet.
A Ensure that the cold and hot water 
connections are made correctly when 
installing the product. Otherwise, your 
laundry will come out hot at the end of 
the washing process and wear out.
2.  Tighten all hose nuts by hand. Never 
use a wrench when tightening the nuts.
3. Open the taps completely after making 
the hose connection to check for 
water leaks at the connection points. 
If any leaks occur, turn off the tap and 
remove the nut. Retighten the nut 
carefully after checking the seal. To 
prevent water leakages and damages 
caused by them, keep the taps closed 
when the machine is not in use.
Connecting to the drain
• The end of the drain hose must be 
directly connected to the wastewater 
drain or to the washbasin. 
A Your house will be flooded if the 
hose comes out of its housing during 
water discharge. Moreover, there is 
risk of scalding due to high washing 
temperatures! To prevent such 
situations and to ensure smooth water 
intake and discharge of the machine, 
fix the end of the discharge hose tightly 
so that it cannot come out. 
•  The hose should be attached to a 
height of at least 40 cm, and 100 cm at 
most.  
						

							10EN
• In case the hose is elevated after 
laying it on the floor level or close to 
the ground (less than 40 cm above the 
ground), water discharge becomes 
more difficult and the laundry may 
come out excessively wet. Therefore, 
follow the heights described in the 
figure.
• To prevent flowing of dirty water back 
into the machine and to allow for easy 
discharge, do not immerse the hose 
end into the dirty water or drive it in the 
drain more than 15 cm. If it is too long, 
cut it short.
•  The end of the hose should not be 
bent, it should not be stepped on and 
the hose must not be pinched between 
the drain and the machine.
•  If the length of the hose is too short, 
use it by adding an original extension 
hose. Length of the hose may not be 
longer than 3.2 m. To avoid water leak 
failures, the connection between the 
extension hose and the drain hose of 
the product must be fitted well with an 
appropriate clamp as not to come off 
and leak.
Adjusting the feet
A In order to ensure that the product 
operates more silent and vibration-free, 
it must stand level and balanced on its 
feet.  Balance the machine by adjusting 
the feet. Otherwise, the product 
may move from its place and cause 
crushing and vibration problems.
1.  Loosen the lock nuts on the feet by 
hand.
2.  Adjust the feet until the product stands 
level and balanced.
3.  Tighten all lock nuts again by hand.
A Do not use any tools to loosen the lock 
nuts. Otherwise, they will get damaged.
Electrical connection
Connect the product to a grounded outlet 
protected by a fuse complying with the 
values in the "Technical specifications" 
table. Our company shall not be liable 
for any damages that will arise when the 
product is used without grounding in 
accordance with the local regulations.
•  Connection must comply with national 
regulations.
•  Power cable plug must be within easy 
reach after installation.
•  The voltage and allowed fuse or 
breaker protection are specified in the 
“Technical specifications” section. If the 
current value of the fuse or breaker in 
the house is less than 13 Amps, have 
a qualified electrician install a 13 Amp
