The other end of the inlet hose which connects to the
machine can be turned in any direction. Simply
loosen the fitting, rotate the hose and retighten the
fitting, making sure there are no water leaks.
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.

Electrical connection
This machine is designed to operate on a 110 V,
single-phase, 60 Hz supply.
Check that your domestic electrical installation can
take the maximum load required (1.4 kW), also
taking into account any other appliances in use.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED.
The manufacturer declines any liability
should this safety measure not be
observed.
Should the appliance power supply cable
need to be replaced, this must be carried
out by our Service Centre.
Important
If the socket in your house is not earthed, you have
to do a separate earth connection using the special
green and yellow ground wire which you can find on
the back of your appliance. This wire has to be
connected to an efficient earth.
If, instead, your domestic wiring system is already
earthed, this wire must not be used and we suggest
you to simply cut it off and to throw it away.
Important !
The power supply cable must be easily accessible
after installing the machine.
