3. Set the hose correctly by loosening the
ring nut. After positioning the inlet hose,
be sure to tighten the ring nut again to
prevent leaks.
4. Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4”
thread. Always use the hose supplied
with the appliance.
The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it
is too short and you do not wish to move
the tap, you will have to purchase a new,
longer hose specially designed for this type
of use.
Water-stop device
The inlet hose is provided with a water stop
device, which protects against damage
caused by water leaks in the hose which
could develop due to natural ageing of the
hose. This fault is shown by a red sector in
the window

. Should this occur, turn
the water tap off and refer to your Service
Centre to replace the hose.

Water drainage
The end of the drain hose can be posi-
tioned in three ways.
•
Hooked over the edge of a sink
using
the plastic hose guide supplied with the
machine. In this case, make sure the end
cannot come unhooked when the ma-
chine is emptying. This could be done by
tying it to the tap with a piece of string or
attaching it to the wall.
•
In a sink drain pipe branch.
This
branch must be above the trap so that
the bend is at least 60 cm above the
ground.
•
Directly into a drain pipe
at a height of
not less than 60 cm and not more than
90 cm. The end of the drain hose must al-
ways be ventilated, i.e. the inside diame-
ter of the drain pipe must be larger than
the outside diameter of the drain hose.
The drain hose must not be kinked.
