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 connec-
ting the drain hose from 
the machine ensure that 
any blanks or removable 
ends have been taken off 
the spigot. 

If it is placed over the edge 
of a basin or sink be sure 
the free end of the hose is 
not 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 inches). 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)

;

• the supply voltage is included within the values in dicated   
   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 instructions 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-wireable 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
