Connecting To The Drain - Beko WMB 51031 PL PT Manual

"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.
• To prevent dirty water refilling the
machine, and to allow for easy
discharge, the end of the hose must
not be submerged in the drain water.
The end of the hose must be able to
take in air. The hose should be pushed
into the drainage for more than 15
cm. If it is too long you may have it
shortened.
• The end of the hose should not be
bent, it should not be stepped on and
it must not be folded between the drain
and the machine.
• The length of the hose is too short,
you may add an extension hose to the
