the supply voltage is included within the values indica 

  ted on the Technical details table (see page 5);

  

the socket is compatible with the washing machine’s  

  plug. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.

Your appliance is now supplied with a 13 amp fused plug 
it can be plugged into a 13 amp socket for immediate 
use. Before using the appliance please read the instruc-
tions below.

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD  BE CARRIED 
OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Replacing the fuse:
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA approved 
fuse to BS 1362 should always be used, and the fuse 
cover re-fitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must 
not be used until a replacement is obtained.
Replacement fuse covers:
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the 
correct colour as indicated by the coloured marking or 
the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the 
plug. Replacements can be obtained directly from your 
nearest Service Depot.

Removing the plug:
If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug and 
you should wish to re-route the mains cable through 
partitions, units etc., please ensure that either:
the plug is replaced by a fused 13 ampere re-wearable 
plug bearing the BSI mark of approval. 
or:
the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp cable 
outlet, controlled by a switch, (in compliance with BS 
5733) which is accessible without moving the appliance.

Disposing of the plug:
Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, you 
make the pins unusable so that it cannot be accidentally 
inserted into a socket.

 

Instructions for connecting cable to an alternative plug:
Important: the wires in the mains lead are coloured in 
accordance with the following code:

Green & Yellow   

Earth

Blue 

 

 

Neutral

Brown   

 

Live

65 - 100 cm

Where it connects to  

the waste water pipe  

cut end off spigot or  

remove the blanking cap

Connecting the drain hose

 

Connect the drain hose, 
without bending it, to a 
draining duct or a wall 
drain situated between 65 
and 100 cm from the floor;

The drain hose may be 
connected to an under-sink 
trap. Before connecting 
the drain hose from the 
machine ensure that any 
blanks or removable ends 
have been taken off the 
spigot. 

If it is place over the edge 
of a basin or sink be sure 
the free end of the hose 
should not be underwater.

 

!

 

We advise against the use of hose extensions;

 

in case 

of absolute need, the extension must have the same 
diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 
cm in length.
Ensure that if the drain hose is pushed into a standpipe, 
that the end does not go down more than 15cms (6 in-
ches). If the hose is pushed down too far, this may cause 
the machine to self -syphon ie. continuously empty as it 
is filling.

Electric connection

Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, 
make sure that:
 

   the socket is earthed and in compliance with the  

  applicable law;

   the socket is able to sustain the appliance’s maximum  

  power load indicated in the Technical details table  
  (see page 5);
