Fixing with a hose holder
CAUTION!
Risk of scalding!
■
Connect the hose to the drain or
bath, ensuring the recoil force gen-
erated during draining will not cause
the hose to slip.
■
Ensure the cross-section of the dis-
charge pipe is large enough to pre-
vent the suds overflowing.
■
Do not touch the suds being drained.
• Insert the end of the outlet hose into a hose
holder . Hang this over the edge of a wash
basin or a bath (suitable hose holders are
available from specialist retailers or DIY
stores .)
• Tether the hose holder tightly to ensure it
cannot slip .
• Make sure that the end of the hose is not
immersed in the drained suds .
Securing to a floor drain
CAUTION!
Risk of scalding!
■
Firmly secure the hose, ensuring the
recoil force generated during drain-
ing will not cause the hose to slip out
of the floor drain.
Securing on the syphon
• Engage a professional to mount the outlet
hose on an appliance connecting nozzle .
An unused appliance connecting noz-
zle contains a washer to prevent water
flowing out. This washer must be replaced
by a seal ring before connecting the outlet
hose .
Creating a water inlet
You require a valve with a ¾-inch connecting
thread for the water supply .
