The electronic unit
and drainage
and overflow protection
– Drainage protection
Any leaking water is collected in the
sump
in the base of the machine.
A float switch
closes the solenoid
valves
, preventing any more water
from flowing into the machine and
water in the suds container is
pumped away.
– Overflow protection
If the water level exceeds a certain
level, the drain pump
switches in
and pumps the excess water away in
a controlled manner.
Should the water level rise repeatedly
in an uncontrolled way, the drain
pump
will switch on continuously,
the washing machine will indicate
that there is a fault and a tone will
sound.
Drain hose
The drain hose is protected by a
ventilation system which prevents the
washing machine from being emptied
completely.
Connection to the water supply
Risk of electric shock!
There are electrical wires in the water
inlet hose.
The inlet hose must not be
connected in an area subject to
spray water, e.g. in a bathroom or
shower room.
The casing on the water inlet hose
must not get wet.
The protective sleeve must not be
damaged or kinked.
