Attention!
•
If the water pipe is new or has not been used for a long time, let a certain amount of water run before attach-
ing the inlet hose. This stops any deposits of sand and other impurities from clogging the filters used by the
machine to protect the water inlet valves.
3.4 DRAIN CONNECTION
1. Insert the end of the drain hose into a drain pipe having an internal diameter of at least 4 cm and a height rang-
ing between 50 and 90 cm, or attach it (using the relative curved plastic profile) to a basin or bath tub.
2. Always check that the end of the drain hose is securely attached in order to prevent the repulsive force of the wa-
ter from moving it out of position.
Attention!
•
Do not bend or obstruct the hose as this will reduce the flow of water.
•
Any extensions to the drain hose must not exceed 1 metre, they must have the same internal diameter and
must not be obstructed in any way.
•
In no case may the end of the drain hose be submerged in water.
3.5 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Before fitting the plug into the socket, make sure that:
1. Input voltage matches that indicated on the name plate attached to the inner edge of the door.
2. The contactor, pressure relief valves, power line and socket are capable of withstanding the maximum rated
power input indicated on the name plate.
3. The socket is compatible with the plug supplied with the machine without the need to fit multiple sockets, adap-
tors or extension leads that could cause overheating or burning.
4. If the socket does not correspond to the supplied plug, replace the socket with one of a suitable type.
Attention
•
The plug must be accessible after installation.
•
The appliance must be earthed.
Plug the machine into a socket fitted with an efficient earth connection.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons or property resulting from
failure to earth the appliance or from a defective earth connection. Correct electrical connec-
tions guarantee maximum safety.
•
This appliance complies with EEC directive 89/336 of 3.5.89 (modified by EEC directive 92/31) relative to the
elimination of radio interference.
•
If the power cord is damaged, only replace it with an original spare part available from our service depart-
ment.
•
Do not insert/remove the plug from the socket if your hands are wet.
•
Remove the plug from the socket by gripping the plug and not the cord.
