Hot water connection*
The hot water temperature must not
exceed 70°C (158ºF).
To minimize energy consumption during
operation with hot water, the washing
machine should be connected to a
suitable hot water ring circuit. So-called
“transmission pipes” (single pipes to
hot water generators) can result in any
water remaining in the pipes cooling
down if not in constant use. More
energy would then be consumed to
heat the liquid up again.
The same connection requirements as
for cold water also apply to hot water.
The intake hose (hot = red stripes) is
connected to the shutoff valve.
A hot water connection shall be
accompanied by a cold water
connection.
* Some machine versions do not come
with a hot water hose.
