Water drainage
If you intend the drain hose from the machine to
empty into a sink, make sure that the sink is empty
and that the plug hole is not blocked.
If the machine is permanently plumbed in, hook the
end of the hose into a standpipe installed for the
purpose. The standpipe must have an internal dia-
meter of at least 40 mm (1 1/2”) in order that there is
an air gap between the drain hose and the standpipe.
Make sure, that it is designed in such a way, that the
end of the drain hose cannot be covered with water.
Important
Before connecting up the machine to new pipework
or to pipework that has not been used for some time,
run off a reasonable amount of water to flush out
any debris that may have collected in the pipes.
Whether discharging into a sink or a standpipe,
check that the end of the drain hose is neither too
high not too low. The top of the curve in the hose’s
end should be no more than 800 mm (31.5”), and
no less than 450 mm (17.8”) above floor level.
The discharge hose can be extended up to total
3,5 m. For the extension piece use a hose with an
internal diameter at least as large as that of the
machine's own hose. Use a suitable hose connector.
The hose should always be routed at floor level,
rising up only where it meets the waste pipe.
Power supply
The washing machine is supplied with a lead and
electrical plug for connection to a 230 V, 13 A
earthed wall socket. Before any work is carried out
on the machine, it must be isolated from the electric
mains supply, for example by removing the plug
from the wall socket.
Permanent electrical installation must be
carried out by an authorised electrician.
