Water
inlet connections
Your machine comes with both cold and
hot water connections.
Connect the cold water using the hose with
blue printing and connect the hot water using
the hose with red printing. If you have only a
cold water feed a Y adaptor will be required
(available from most D.I.Y. stores).
Cold water supply
f.or proper operation, the pressure of cold
water should be between 1 and 10 bars. (1
bar corresponds to more than 8 litres per minute
flow rate with a fully open tap.)
Hot
water supply
Pressure: 1-10 bar Temperature: 60°C max.
A hot water supply fed from a separate cold
water tank will normally be suitable. Open
outlet gas or electric water heaters must not
be used. Multipoint water heaters or
combination boilers may be suitable if they are
designed to supply washing machines. (Check
your boilers operation instructions or supplier.)
If the hot water supply is unsuitable, connect
both hoses to the cold water supply using a Y
connection. The only disadvantage of this is
the machine will use more electricity to heat
the water and take longer to wash on some
programs.
To prevent water leaks,
four sealing washers are
supplied with the water
inlet hoses inside the
machine. Place these on
each of the hose ends and tighten both ends
fully.
In order to prevent any water leakage and
damage, turn off the water taps when not in
use. Connect the cornered end of the hose to
the machine water inlet.

Drain hose
The drain hose should be placed and secured
either at the side of the sink
m,
directly to the
drain
m
or directly to the waste water
inlet~.
• The hose should not be bent.
• Using method A, the drain hose should be
secured with the elbow so that it can not
be
dislodged.
• The waste pipe must only be connected
into the foul drains and not surface water
drainage system.
• The hose should be placed between 20 and
80cm from the floor level and must not be
extended otherwise the machine may not
empty the waste water.
