Before the washing machine is operated, the transit bars 
must be removed! In order to do this:
1. Loosen “C” bolts by rotating them counter clockwise 
with a suitable spanner 
2. Remove transportation safety bolts by turning. 
3. Place “P” plastic covers onto the openings of transpor-
tation locks by rotating in direction of arrow and pushing. 
Attention please! Keep the transit bars for using when 
machine is to be transported again. Always transport your 
machine with transportation locks.

vibration it must be properly on balance. Four feet of your 
machine can be adjusted. First loosen the plastic counter 
bolt. Tighten the counter bolt after adjusting the feet for 
leveling your machine.
3. Water Connections 
a) Water Inlet Hose 
Your machine is connected to water supply by special hoses supplied by the machine. Red hose or hose written red on it is hot water inlet, blue hose or hose written blue on it is cold water inlet.
There are plastic seals (4 for double water inlet mod-els, 2 for single water inlet models) on hose or plastic bag for eliminating any leakage in connections points. These seals must be used on each side of the con-

nection. Seals on machine side must be connected 
filter cannal.
After connecting the hose, check all connections for leaks In order to eliminate any risk due to water leak-
age keep the taps off when machine is not used.
 
Your machine will operate efficiently if the water from
tap is minimum 1 and maximum 10 bars. Practically 1 bar means 8 liters of water in one minute when tap is fully on. 
Connect hose to the machine. Tighten bolts with hand 
power, do not use spanner.
Double inlet models can be used with blind cap as a single inlet machine. Connect blind cap to hot water inlet. Seal must be for stopping water leakage.
Do not connect single inlet machine to hot water. If 
machine is connected with Y part to a double inlet 
and over 40˚C for single inlet machines, machine may switch to protection mode.
b)  Water drain hose
Water drain hose could be placed either at the side of the 
bath tub, or directly to the drain. The hose should not be 
bent. Water drain hose should be secured with the holder 
so that it would not fall down on the ground.
The hose should be placed between 40 and 100 cm. from 
the ground.
Water drain hose could be placed directly to the drain 
water inlet.
