Washing Machine /User’s Manual
Installation
C
Keep the transportation safety bolts in a safe
place to reuse when the washing machine needs
to be moved again in the future.
Never move the product without the
transportation safety bolts properly fixed in place!
3.4 Connecting water supply
C
The water supply pressure required to run the
product is between 1 to 10 bars (0.1 – 1 MPa). It
is necessary to have 10 – 80 liters of water flowing
from the fully open tap in one minute to have your
machine run smoothly. Attach a pressure reducing
valve if water pressure is higher.
If you are going to use the double water-inlet
product as a single
(cold)
water-inlet unit, you
must install the supplied stopper to the hot water
valve before operating the product. (Applies for the
products supplied with a blind stopper group.)
A
WARNING:
Models with a single water inlet
should not be connected to the hot water tap. In
such a case the laundry will get damaged or the
product will switch to protection mode and will not
.operate
WARNING:
Do not use old or used water inlet
hoses on the new product. It may cause stains on
your laundry.
1. Connect the special hoses supplied with the
product to the water inlets on the product. Blue
hose (right) (max. 25 ºC) is for cold water inlet.
A
WARNING:
Ensure that the cold and hot water
connections are made correctly when installing the
product. Otherwise, your laundry will come out hot
at the end of the washing process and wear out.
2. Tighten all hose nuts by hand. Never use a tool
when tightening the nuts.
3. Open the taps completely after making the
hose connection to check for water leaks at
the connection points. If any leaks occur, turn
off the tap and remove the nut. Retighten the
nut carefully after checking the seal. To prevent
water leakages and damages caused by them,
keep the taps closed when the machine is not
in use.
3.5 Connecting to the drain
• The end of the drain hose must be directly
connected to the wastewater drain or to the
washbasin.
• Drain hose shall be attached to a wall drain,
stand pipe or sink siphon connected to the foul
water drain, do not connect to surface water
drains.
A
WARNING:
Your house will be flooded if the
hose comes out of its housing during water
discharge. Moreover, there is risk of scalding
due to high washing temperatures! To prevent
such situations and to ensure smooth water
intake and discharge of the machine, fix the end
of the discharge hose tightly so that it cannot
come out.
• 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 excessively wet. Therefore, follow the
heights described in the figure.
