Water Supply - GIRBAU HS-6040 Installation Instructions Manual

Water supply

IMPORTANT!
The local or national regulations concerning the water supply system in the country where the
washing machine is installed must be followed.
Hoses and pipes should be flushed through before being connected to the machine.
Install at each water supply and in an accessible location, a mechanically interlocked water valve.
In those premises using water containing impurities, it is recommended to install a filter at the main water supply
inlet.
Refer to technical specifications on the INSTALLATION SPECS, section 1.4.
IMPORTANT!
PROTECTION AGAINST OVERPRESSURE
IF THE FEEDING PRESSURE IS HIGH AND FLUID HAMMERS OCCUR WHEN CLOSING THE
VALVES, IT IS REQUIRED TO INSTALL A SMALL AIR LUNG OR ANTI-FLUID-HAMMER DEVICE TO
PREVENT PREMATURE DAMAGE OF MEMBRANES.
Assembling the filters and their connection (Fig. 3.4)
Directly assemble the supplied filters to the machine water
inlets.
Assure they are watertight by means of a suitable product.
The arrow of the filter shows the direction of water flow.
Connect the hoses to the filters. Do not forget the seals.
IMPORTANT!
HS-6040, HS-6057 and HS-6110 models EC certified.
SIPHONAGE CONTAMINATION PREVENTION
If the washer extractor is directly connected to the water supply, an antisiphon device must be
connected either to the external supply inlet or prior to every connection.
IMPORTANT!
DO NOT CONNECT THE HOT WATER TO INLET 1. THIS INLET DOES NOT HAVE A TEMPERATURE
CONTROL SYSTEM.
DO NOT CONNECT THE HOT WATER TO INLET 3 IF IT IS NOT CONFIGURED AS A DUAL HOT
WATER INLET FLOW.
INCOMPLIANCE OF THIS PRECAUTION CAN CAUSE FABRIC DAMAGE.
For a correct operation of the washing machine, the hot and cold water inlets must receive an
uninterrupted supply at all times.
If there is no hot water supply, connect cold water or cold softened water to inlet 2.
ADAPT THE WASHER CONFIGURATION to operating with cold water.
