Electrical connection

This machine is designed to operate on a 220-230 V, single-phase, 
50 Hz supply.
Check that your domestic electrical installation can take the maximum
load required (2.2 kW), also taking into account any other appliances in
use.

Connect the machine to an earthed socket.

The manufacturer declines any responsibility for damage or injury
through failure to comply with the above safety precaution.

Permanent connection

In the case of a permanent connection it is necessary that you install a
double pole switch between the appliance and the electricity supply
(mains), with a minimum gap of 3 mm between the switch contacts and
of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current
electrical regulations.
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth cable at any
point.
This operation has only to be performed by a qualified electrician.

Water inlet

Connect the
water inlet hose
to a separate tap
with a 3/4"
thread after hav-
ing inserted the
small filter “A”
supplied with the
machine.
The other end of the inlet hose which connects to the machine can be
turned in any direction. Simply loosen the fitting, rotate the hose and
retighten the fitting, making sure there are no water leaks.
The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is too short and you do not
wish to move the tap, you will have to purchase a new, longer hose spe-
cially designed for this type of use.

Water drainage

The end of the drain hose can be positioned
in three ways:

Hooked over the edge of a sink using the
plastic hose guide supplied with the
machine.

In this case, make sure the end

cannot come unhooked when the machine
is emptying.
This could be done by tying it to the tap
with a piece of string or attaching it to the
wall.

In a sink drain pipe branch.

This branch must be above the trap so that

the bend is at least 60 cm above the ground.

Directly into a
drain pipe at a
height

of not less

than 60 cm and
not more than 
90 cm.
The end of the
drain hose must always be 

ventilated

, i.e. the inside diameter of the

drain pipe must be larger than the outside diameter of the drain hose.
The drain hose must not be kinked. Run it along the floor; only the part
near the drainage point must be raised.
