Danger of death if live parts are coming
into contact with water.
Do not immerse Aqua-Stop safety
device in water (contains an electric
valve).
Caution!
Water damage
The connection points for the water
supply hose and water drain hose are
under high water pressure. To prevent
leaks and water damage, you must
follow the instructions in this section.
Notes
In addition to the safety information
■
listed here, the local water and
electricity supplier may have special
requirements.
Only operate the washing machine
■
using cold mains water.
Do not connect the washing
■
machine to the mixer tap of an
unpressurised hot-water boiler.
Do not use a used supply hose. Only

Do not bend, squash, modify or cut
■
through the water supply hose

by hand. If the screw connections
are tightened too much with a tool
(pliers), the thread may become
damaged.

is at least 8 l/min.
If the water pressure is higher than
■
this, a pressure-reducing valve must
be installed.
Connection
Connect the water supply hose to the
water tap (¾" = 26.4 mm) and to the
appliance (not necessary for Aqua-Stop
