Description

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 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 i

ndicated  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-

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:
