WATER DRAINAGE

There are different procedures to connect
the drain hose:

With the plastic hose guide.

 

• On the edge of a sink.
• Make sure that the plastic guide cannot

move when the appliance drains. At-
tach the guide to the water tap or the
wall.

• To a stand pipe with vent-hole.

Refer to the illustration. Directly into a
drain pipe at a height of not less than
60 cm and not more than 100 cm. The
end of the drain hose must always be
ventilated , i.e. the inner diameter of
the drainpipe must be larger than the
external diameter of the drain hose.

Without the plastic hose guide.

• To a sink spigot.

Refer to the illustration. Put the drain
hose in the spigot and tighten it with a
clip. Make sure that the drain hose
makes a loop to prevent that remaining
particles go in the appliance from the
sink.
