To avoid having to empty the collection tank every
time you use the appliance, you have a kit (*) for
removing the water from the condenser directly into
the drain (hose and deflector). To fit this :
— Take off the existing pipe and push it inside the
appliance
(Fig. 22).
— Clip the deflector with the top of the pump
(Fig. 23).
— Connect the hose from the kit to the end connec-
tor on the appliance
(Fig. 24).
You can connect the other end of the hose either :
- To a ventilated trap
(Fig. 25)
.
- Or a sink trap
(Fig. 26
).
When connecting to a trap, you must remove the fil-
ler plug. Then press home the rubber tip. If neces-
sary, add a clamp connection
(Fig. 26)
.
Important :
The deflector must necessarily be positioned
before the drain hose connection to avoid any
water splashes when taking off the hose.
Remarks :
Directly emptying the condenser water into
the sewage system will prevent the reuse of the
recovery water for steam programs.
