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 doubt, have the water connection installed by
an authorized technician.
The water supply hoses must not be:
- Bent or squashed.
- Modified or cut (stability can no longer be guar-
anteed).
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
are discharged per minute).
A pressure reducing valve must be installed if
the maximum water pressure is exceeded.
Other hoses
Available at specialty dealers:
- Extended supply hose (approx. 2.2 m / 86.6 in).
To prevent against water damage, 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 the washer is being installed in a new
building, or a building in which the plumbing sys-
tem was installed or upgraded recently, 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.
