INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE FITTER
Mounting the wooden panel onto the door
and inserting the machine into cabinets:
In the case where the machine must be shipped
for nal installation after the wooden panel has
been mounted, we suggest leaving it in its ori-
ginal packaging. The packaging was designed
to make it possible to mount the wooden panel
onto the machine without removing it comple-
tely (see gures below).
The wooden panel that covers the face of the ma-
chine must not be less than 13 mm in thickness
and can be hinged on either the right or left. For
the sake of practicality when using the machine,
we recommend that the panel be hinged on the
same side as the door for the machine itself - the
left.

panel. Fit a spacer (g. 4/B) between the surfaces
using type C screws.

Using the Drilling Template.
- To trace the positions of the holes on the left-
hand side of the panel, align the drilling template
to the top left side of the panel using the lines
traced on the extremities as a reference.
- To trace the positions of the holes on the right-
hand side of the panel, align the drilling template
to the top right side of the panel.
- Use an appropriately sized router to mill the holes
for the two hinges, the rubber plug and the magnet.
Mounding the Parts onto the Wooden Panel (Door).
- Insert the hinges into the holes (the movable part
of the hinge must be positioned facing away from
the panel) and fasten them with the 4 type A screws.
- Insert the magnet into the top hole on the oppo-
site side of the hinges and fasten it with the two
type A screws.
- Insert the rubber plug into the bottom hole.
The panel is now ready to be mounted onto the
machine.
Mounting the Panel into the machine.
Insert the nib of the hinge (indicated by the arrow
in g. 2) into the hole for the hinge and push the
panel towards the front of the machine. Fasten
the two hinges with the type D screws.
Fastening the plinth guide.
If the machine is installed at the end of a set of
modular cabinets, mount either one or both of
the guides for the base molding (as shown in g.
8). Adjust them for depth based on the position
of the base molding, and, if necessary, fasten the
base to the guides (g. 9).
This is how to assemble the plinth guide (g. 8):
Fasten angle P using screw R, insert plinth guide
Q into the special slot and once it is in the desired
position, lock it in place using angle P and screw R.
Inserting the machine into the Cabinet.
- Push the machine into the opening, aligning it
with the cabinets (g. 6).
- Regulate the adjustable feet to raise the machine
to the appropriate height.
- To adjust the position of the wooden panel in
both the vertical and horizontal directions, use the
C and D screws, as shown in g. 7.
Important: close the lower part of the appliance front
and sides in case machine is installed at the end of set
of modular cabinets, by ensuring that the plinth rests
against the oor.

Accessories provided for the height adjustment.
The following can be found
inside the polystyrene lid (g.
10): 2 crossbars (G), 1 strip (M)
the following can be found
inside the appliance drum:
4 additional feet (H),
4 screws (I),
4 screws (R),
4 nuts (L),
2 plinth guides (Q)
Adjusting the appliance height.
The height of the appliance can be adjusted (from
815 mm to 835 mm), by turning the 4 feet.
Should you require the appliance to be placed higher
than the above height, you need to use the following
accessories to raise it to up to 870 mm:
the two crossbars (G); the 4 feet (H); the 4 screws
(I); the 4 nuts (L) then perform the following ope-
rations (g. 11):
Lay down machine to back side, make sure, to do
not damage drain hose and power supply cable.
remove the 4 original feet, place a crossbar G at the
front of the appliance, fastening it in place using
screws I (screwing them in where the original feet
were) then insert the new feet H.
Repeat the same operation at the back of the ap-
pliance.
Now adjust feet H to raise or lower the appliance
from 835 mm to 870 mm.
Once you have reached the desired height, lock
nuts L onto crossbar G.
To adjust the appliance to a height between 870
mm and 900 mm, you need to mount strip M,
adjusting feet H to the required height.
Insert the strip as follows:
loosen the three screws N situated at the front of
the Top cover of the appliance, insert strip M as
shown in g. 12, then fasten screws N.
