Water connection
Water supply
The washing machine must only be operated
with cold and hot (max. 140 °F//60 °C) tap
water. Do not connect the appliance to the mixer
tap of an unpressurized hot-water boiler.
If in any doubt, have the water connection carried
out by an authorized technician.
The water supply hoses must not be:
- Bent or squashed.
- Modified or cut through (stability can no longer
be guaranteed).
Plastic threads must only be tightened by hand.
Do not remove the strainers from the water supply
hoses.
Observe the water pressure in the supply network:
- The water pressure should be between 14.5 to
145 p.s.i. (1 to 10 bars) (when the tap is turned
on, at least 2.2 U. S. gallons (8 liters) of water is
discharged per minute).
- A pressure reducing valve must be installed if
the maximum water pressure is exceeded.
To protect against water demage, the hot and
cold water valves should be accessible when the
washer is in place and should always be turned
off when the washer is not in use.
When washer is being installed in new construc-
tion, or a building that has had its plumbing sys-
tem recently installed or upgraded, the lines
must be flushed prior to installing the washer.
This must be done to clear the lines of any sand,
dirt or residue that may still be in the lines.
