3.4. Steam connection (RMS610/REM025 models not available)
In some models the body of the steam solenoid valve and the filter are shipped inside the drum of the washing
machine, separate from the electrical wiring system. The coil connector is connected to the end of the electrical
installation.
In other models, the assembly solenoid valve and filter are supplied connected to the electrical wiring system.
Installation characteristics
Before connecting the installation to the solenoid valve, purge the pipe conduits.
Place a mechanically lockable flow valve in the steam inlet in an accessible place.
Check dimensions and connection diameters in the Installation specs (section 1.4).
Assembly and solenoid valve connection
SEAL ALL THREADED UNIONS WITH A PRODUCT WHICH IS APPROPRIATE FOR STEAM PIPE
CONDUITS.
Respect the steam circulation direction indicated by an
arrow on each part.
The coil has been previously removed from shipping
