Warning
Danger of death!
There is a risk of electric shock if you
touch live components.
Do not immerse the Aqua-Stop safety
valve in water (it contains an electric
valve).
Notes
Only operate the washing machine
■
using cold mains water.
Do not connect the machine to the
■
mixer tap of an unpressurised hot-
water boiler.
Do not use a used supply hose. Only
■
use the supply hose supplied or one
that was purchased from an
authorised specialist retailer.
Do not kink or squash the water
■
supply hose.
Do not alter (shorten, cut through)
■
the water supply hose (otherwise its
strength is no longer guaranteed).
Only tighten the screw connections
■
by hand. If the screw connections
are tightened too much with a tool
(pliers), the thread may become
damaged.
When connecting to a 21 mm = ½"
■
tap, first fit an adapter* with a sealing
washer from 21 mm = ½" to
26.4 mm = ¾".
*supplied depending on the model
Optimum water pressure in the supply
network
At least 100 kPa (1 bar)
Maximum 1000 kPa (10 bar)

When the tap is open, the water flow
rate 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
tap (26.4 mm = ¾") and to the
appliance (not necessary for Aqua-Stop
models as this is permanently installed):
Model: Standard
■
Model: Aqua-Secure
■
Model: Aqua-Stop
■
Turn on the tap carefully,
Note:
checking the leak tightness of the
connection points. The screw
connection is under mains water
pressure.
