• Connect the special hoses supplied
with the machine to the water intake
valves on the machine. The hose
bearing the “red” sign (90°C max)
is the hot water inlet and the hose
bearing the “blue” sign (25°C max) is
for the cold water inlet.
• If you are going to use your double
water-inlet machine as a single (cold)
water-inlet unit, you must install the
stopper*, supplied with your machine
to the hot water valve.
If you want to use both water inlets of
the product, you can connect the hot
water hose after removing the stopper
and gasket group from the hot water
valve.
* Applies for the products supplied
with a blind stopper group.
• Open the taps completely after
making the hose connection to check
if there is any water leakage at the
connection points. Turn off the tap
and remove the nut in case of any
leakage. Retighten the nut carefully
after checking the seal. To prevent any
water leakage and any other damage
to be caused by it, keep the taps
closed when the machine is not in
use.
• Models with a single water inlet should
not be connected to the hot water
tap. Laundry may be damaged or the
appliance may switch to protection
mode and not work.
When returning the appliance to its place
after maintenance or cleaning, care should
be taken not to fold, squeeze or block the
hoses.
Connecting to the drain
The water discharge hose can be
attached to the edge of a washbasin or
bathtub. The drain hose should be firmly
fitted into the drain as to not loosen in its
housing.
Important:
• The end of the drain hose can be
directly connected to the wastewater
drain or to the washbasin. The
fitting must be secured in all types
of connections. Your house may be
flooded if the hose falls out of its
housing during water discharging.
• The hose should be attached to a
height of at least 40 cm, and 100 cm
at most.
• In case the hose is elevated after
laying it on the floor level or close to
the ground (less than 40 cm above the
ground), water discharge becomes
more difficult and the laundry may
come out wet. Therefore, the heights
described in the figure should be
followed.

machine, and to allow for easy
