Water Drain Hose
Points to remember:
• Don’t twist, pull out or bend the drain hose.
• Your washing machine should be no more than 100cm from the drain outlet.
Draining to a sink or wash-basin
• Secure the drain hose in position, so it can’t drop out of the basin.
• Don’t block the basin’s drain outlet, and make sure that the drainage
through it is sufficient.
• Don’t let the tip of the drain hose dip into the drained water, as this can
cause the water to flow back into the washing machine.
• Use the drain hose bracket to keep the end of the drain hose retained
and prevent the outflow of water. Don’t extend the length of the drain
hose; if an extended hose is required, please consult a serviceman.
Connecting to the Mains Supply
For your safety:
• Do not use a mains plug adapter or extension cable.
• If the mains cable or mains plug are damaged, stop using them and call a qualified technician for
assistance.
• Mains cord of your washing machine is equipped with an Earthed plug. This plug should always be
inserted to an earthed socket capable of supplying 13 Amps. If you don’t have such a socket and
fuses in your house, please call a qualified electrician.
The drain hose should not be submerged in water and should be
securely fixed and leak-free. If the drain hose is placed on the ground
or if the pipe is at a height of less than 80cm, the washing machine
will continuously drain while being filled (self-siphoning).
