• Connect the other end of the hose
to the water intake. Then securely
tighten the connection nut.
• Make sure that the gasket is in
place.
C
It is important that the drain hose
bend is correctly fastened to the
outlet, to prevent any risk of it
becoming detached and causing
flooding.
C
If your washing machine has a hot
water intake, connect the hose with
the red threaded end to the hot
water tap, and to the electrovalve
with the red filter.
C
The washing machine must be
connected to the mains water
supply, using the new supply hoses
supplied with the appliance. Do not
use water supply hoses that have
been used before. For your washing
machine to work properly, the mains
water pressure must be between
0.05 and 1MPa (0.05 and 10 Kgr/
cm
2
).
Drainage connection
To make the washing machine ready
for use, make sure that tap water
supply and water drainage systems are
appropriate before calling the authorised
service agent. If they are not, call a
qualified plumber to have any necessary
arrangements carried out.
• It is recommended that you have a
fixed drainage outlet 50 to 70 cm
from the floor.
Avoid the drain hose being too tight,
kinked or restricted.
• The end of the drain hose
must be directly connected to
the wastewater drain or to the
washbasin.
• The end of the drain hose must
always be secured regardless of the
connection type.
A
Your floor will be flooded if the hose
comes out of its housing during
water discharge.
• In case the hose is routed at floor
level or close to the floor (less than
50 cm) and then rises higher, water
discharge becomes more difficult
and laundry will come out wetter
than normal. Therefore, follow the
heights described in the figure.
• To prevent flow of dirty water back
to the washing machine and to allow
for easy discharge, the end of the
hose must not be inserted in to the
drain more than 15 cm. If it is too
long, cut it shorter.
• The end of the hose should not be
bent, it should not be stepped on
and the hose must not be pinched
between the drain and the machine.
