INSTALLATION
ENGLISH
• No further backflow protection required for
connection to the water inlet.
Checking the Rubber Seal
Two rubber seals
a
are supplied with the water
supply hose. They are used to prevent water leaks.
Connection to taps is sufficiently tight.
• Do not use mechanical devices such as multi
grips to tighten the water supply hose. Ensure
that the curved end of the water supply hose is
connected to the appliance.
Connecting the Hose to the
Water Tap
Connecting Screw-Type Hose to Tap with Thread
Screw the supply hose connector onto the water
supply tap. Hand tighten only with the aid of a soft
cloth. Do not overtighten the supply hose with any
mechanical device.
NOTE
• After connecting the water inlet hose to the
water tap, turn on the water tap to flush out
foreign substances (dirt, sand, sawdust, and etc.)
in the water lines. Let the water drain into a
bucket, and check the water temperature.
Connecting the Hose to the
Appliance
Screw the supply hose to the water inlet valve on
the back of the appliance.
• Do not connect the hose to the hot water supply
for models with one water inlet. Connect to the
cold water supply only.
NOTE
• After completing connection, if water leaks from
the hose, repeat the same steps. Use the most
conventional type of tap for the water supply. In
case that the tap is square or too big, remove the
guide plate before inserting the tap into the
adaptor.
• Make sure that the hose should not be kinked or
trapped.
Installing the Drain Hose
Installing the Drain Hose with
the Elbow Bracket
The drain hose should not be placed higher than
100 cm above the floor. Water in the appliance may
not drain or may drain slowly.
