instructions for the Ariston carIn the age of information technology, the loss of printed instructions for your washing machine should not sadden you. Even if you had to buy a used machine without instructions, you can always find an electronic version. In this article we offer instructions for the Ariston Margherita washing machine.

Installation

Before you start using the washing machine, you need to take care of its installation. After the unit has been unpacked, it must be carefully inspected for possible damage. Don't be so sure that everything is fine with the machine. If you find something, call the store immediately, and don’t even think about turning on the machine.

If everything is in order, then you need to remove the shipping bolts that held the moving parts. They must be preserved; they may be needed, for example, when moving. The holes for the bolts can be closed with special plugs.

The next stage is leveling the surface on which the machine will stand. Usually the position of the machine itself is leveled by rotating the front legs, but this may not be enough. Read more about how to level the machine read the article on our website.

Having prepared the installation site, proceed to connecting the hoses. Using your hands, screw the inlet hose onto the ¾ diameter water pipe or its outlet. Then screw the bent end of the hose to the tube coming out of the back of the machine, coming from the fill valve.

Important! Be careful not to lose the rubber seal that is located just after the fitting washer.

Connect the drain hose to the sewer or outlet in the sink siphon, but only so that its end is not in the water.The upper drain point should be fixed at a height of 60-100 cm using a clamp on the back wall of the machine. When connecting, it may be necessary to increase the length of the hose; this can be done, but the total length should not exceed 150 cm.

Now all that remains is to connect the machine to electricity, but before doing this:

  • check that the wiring matches the maximum load of the machine;
  • whether the voltage in the network corresponds to the permissible standard;
  • whether the plug from the machine cord fits your socket, otherwise change the socket, but do not use an adapter;
  • Is there any grounding in the electrical network?

The compartment located in the center is intended for pre-washing. You can put either liquid or dry laundry detergent in it. As for the fourth compartment, it is inserted into the pre-wash compartment in case you need to add bleach.

    I understood a lot, but I couldn’t figure out how to wash clothes. Everything is written on the panel, but in a different language. I didn’t understand how to set the program so that it would be alone when washing.
