Water drainage
The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways:
Hooked over the edge of a
sink using the plastic hose
guide supplied with the
machine.
In this case, make sure the end cannot come unhooked
when the machine is emptying. This could be done by
tying it to the tap with a piece of string or attaching it to
the wall.
In a sink drain pipe branch. This branch must be above
the trap so that the bend is at least 60 cm above the
ground.
Directly into a drain pipe at a height of not less than 60
cm and not more than 90 cm. The end of the drain hose
must always be ventilated, i.e. the inside diameter of the
drain pipe must be larger than the outside diameter of
the drain hose. The drain hose must not be kinked.
Electrical connection
Information on the electrical connection is given on the
rating plate on the inner edge of the appliance door.
Check that your domestic electrical installation can take
the maximum load required, also taking into account any
other appliances in use.
Caution! Connect the machine to an earthed socket.
Caution! The manufacturer does not accept any
responsibility for damage or injury through failure
to comply with the above safety precaution.
Caution! The power supply cable must be easily
accessible after installing the machine.
Caution! Should the appliance power supply cable
need to be replaced, this must be carried out by a
Service Centre.

Ecological hints
To save water, energy and to help protect the environment,
we recommend that you follow these tips:
• Normally soiled laundry may be washed without pre-

ded.
