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 drainage

The end of the drain hose can be positioned 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 machine 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 always be

ventilated

, i.e. the inside diameter of the drain pipe

must be larger than the outside diameter of the drain
hose.
The drain hose must not be kinked. Run it along the
floor; only the part near the drainage point must be
raised.

For the correct functioning of the machine the
drain hose must remain hooked on the proper
support piece situated on the top part of back
side of the appliance
