connecting the water supply hose
1. To prevent leakage from the connection
joints, ensure the rubber washer seals are
fitted to each end of the water supply hose.
Do not use without the seals in place.
2. Fit the straight end of the water supply
hose to the cold water tap.
3. Connect the angled end of the white
headed hose to the water inlet valve on
the machine. Hand tighten the plastic parts
of the connections. If you are unsure,
please call a qualified plumber for safer
connections.
4. Open the tap slowly and check that there
are no leaks around the connection joints.
water drain hose
Points to remember:
• Don’t twist, pull out or bend the drain hose.
• Your washing machine should be no more than 85cm from the drain outlet.
• The water drain hose should be mounted at a height of minimum 60 cm, maximum 100 cm
from the ground.
Draining to a sink or wash-basin
• Secure the drain hose in position, so it can’t drop out of the basin.
• Don’t block the basin’s drain outlet, and make sure that the drainage through it is sufficient to
prevent overflowing.
• Don’t let the tip of the drain hose dip into the drained water, as this can cause the water to
flow back into the washing machine.
