Water connection
depending on model
Risk of electric shock.
Do not immerse the Aqua-Stop safety device in water
(contains an electric valve).
To prevent leaks or water damage, observe the instructions in this section.
Caution
: only operate the washing machine using cold drinking water.
Do not connect to the mixer tap of an unpressurised hot-water boiler.
Do not use a used inlet hose. Only use the inlet hose supplied or one which was
purchased from an authorised specialist retailer.
If in doubt, have a technician connect the appliance.
Water inlet
Water inlet hose:
Caution
: do not kink, squash, modify or cut through
(otherwise its strength is no longer guaranteed).
Optimum water pressure in the supply network: 100-1000 kPa (1-10 bar)
When the tap is on, the water flow is at least 8 l/min.
If the water pressure is higher than this, a pressure reducing valve must be installed.

hand.
2.
Open the water tap carefully, checking the leak
tightness of the connection points.
Caution
:
the screw connection is under mains
water pressure.
Water outlet
Water outlet hose:
Caution
:
do not kink or pull lengthways.
Height difference between the installation surface and the drain:
0 - max. 100 cm
Outlet into a sink
Caution
: secure the drain hose so that it cannot slip out.
Caution
: the plug must not block drainage from the sink. During pumping,
check whether the water is draining away quickly enough. The end of the
drain hose must not be immersed in the water that is pumped out! This
would result in the risk of water being sucked back into the washing
machine!
