Insert the dirt strainer (already premounted on the hose end or
included in the accessories) into the threaded tap coupling.
2.
Carefully screw the hose connection onto the tap preferably by
hand.
3.
Make sure there are no kinks in the hose.
4.
Check water-tightness of tap and appliance connections by
turning the tap completely on.
If the hose is too short, replace it with a suitable length of
pressure resistant hose (1000 kPa min, EN 50084 approved type).
Periodically check the hose for brittleness and cracks and replace
if necessary.
The appliance can be connected without an anti-backpressure
valve.

mains immediately.

operation must be carried out exclusively by a licensed
electrician.
The appliance
must not
be connected to the mixing tap of a non-
pressurized water heater.
