of connections. Your house may be
flooded if the hose falls out of its
housing during water discharging.
• The hose should be attached to a
height of at least 40 cm, and 100 cm
at most.
• In case the hose is elevated after
laying it on the floor level or close to
the ground (less than 40 cm above the
ground), water discharge becomes
more difficult and the laundry may
come out wet. Therefore, the heights
described in the figure should be
followed.
• To prevent dirty water refilling the
machine, and to allow for easy
discharge, the end of the hose must
not be submerged in the drain water.
The end of the hose must be able
to take in air. The hose should be
pushed into the drainage for more
than 15 cm. If it is too long you may
have it shortened.
• The end of the hose should not be
bent, it should not be stepped on and
it must not be folded between the
drain and the machine.
• The length of the hose is too short,
you may add an extension hose to the
original section. The length of the hose
must not be longer than 3.2 m after
coming out of the machine. To avoid
water leakage failures, the connection
between the extension hose and the
drain hose of the product must be
fitted well with an appropriate clamp
as not to come off and leak.
Electrical connection
Connect the machine to an earthed outlet
protected by a fuse of suitable capacity.

reach after installation.

protection are specified in the section

multi-plugs should not be made.
B A damaged power cable must be
replaced by a qualified electrician.
B A faulty appliance must not be
operated whilst faulty until it has been
repaired! There is the risk of electric
shock!
