Water inlet
Do not allow the water inlet hose to be:
– Kinked or squashed, modified and cut (strength no longer guaranteed).
Note the water pressure in the mains supply:
– The water pressure should be between 50-900 kPa (0.5-9 bar) (at least
8 litres of water per minute flow when the tap is open).
– If the water pressure is higher, a pressure reducing valve must be
installed.
Connect the inlet hose to the ¾" cold water tap.
Tighten the screw connections only by hand. Do not remove the filter from
the inlet hose.
After connecting the water inlet hose:
– Open the water tap carefully, checking the leak tightness of the connec-
tion points.
– N.B.: The screw connection is under mains water pressure.
Water outlet
– Do not kink the outlet hose or pull it lengthways.
– Height difference between the installation surface and the drain:
max. 90 cm, min. 50 cm.
Secure the connection point with the 24-40 mm hose clamp.
Electrical connection
The washing machine must only be connected to an alternating current
via a properly installed earthed socket.
Only use earth-leakage circuit breakers with the following symbol:
The mains voltage must correspond to the voltage specifications on the
washing machine (rating plate).
The connected load and fuse required are specified on the rating plate.
Make sure that:
– the mains plug fits the socket.
– the cable cross-section is adequate.
– the earthing system is properly installed.
– the appliance is not standing on the mains cable,
– the mains plug is accessible at all times.
Changes to the mains cable may only be carried out by a qualified
electrician.
Do not use multiple plugs/adapters or extension cables.
Mains plug:
– Do not insert the plug into the socket or pull it out if your hands are wet.
– When removing the plug from the socket, pull on the plug body only,
not the cable.
– Never pull the plug out during operation.
