Water inlet hose
Caution
Operate the washer-dryer with cold drinking water only.
Do not connect to the mixer tap of an unpressurised
hot-water apparatus.
If in doubt, have the appliance connected by a
specialist.
Do not use a used inlet hose. Only use the inlet hose
supplied or one which was purchased from an
authorised specialist dealer.
The water inlet hose must not be
– kinked or crushed,
– modified or severed (strength is no longer
guaranteed).
Plastic threads must only be tightened by hand. Do not
remove the strainers from the water supply hose.
Check the mains water pressure:
– The water pressure should be between 1 and 10
bars (when the tap is turned on, at least 8 litres of
water is discharged per minute).
– If the water pressure is higher, install a pressure
reducing valve.
