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 special-
ist.
Do not use a used inlet hose. Only use the inlet hose
supplied or one which was purchased from an autho-
rised specialist dealer.
The water inlet hose must not be
– kinked or crushed,
– modified or severed (strength is no longer guaran-
teed).
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.
