4.3.1 Automatic freshwater supply via water pipe
An enclosure inside the unit contains the connection kit for freshwater and wastewater. Install the freshwa-
ter connection using either the enclosed water hose or another pressure-resistant one. To accomplish
this, remove the cover of the freshwater connection “IN” (17) on the rear of the unit. Protect both ends of
the hose with two of the four supplied hose clamps.
Before turning on the unit, check the connection for leaks. Water supply is automatically effected via the
freshwater connection “IN” (17).
As the appliance only lets in water when required, there is no continuous water flow.
• Supply pressure 1 to 10 bar / 14.5 to 145 PSI when connecting to a water pipe
• Water type: deionized (demineralized) water
• Water intake temperature NOT below +5 °C / 41 °F and not exceeding 40 °C / 104 °F .
• The water intake should be provided with a shut-off slide or water-tap.
• For the water supply, fix the delivered adapter with hose olive on the thread at the rear of
the chamber.
• Protect the water supply at one side with the supplied hose clamp.
