The water intake and drain hoses can be fitted pointing to the left or right for ef-
fective installation.
WARNING!
This operation must be carried out with care to prevent the washing
machine from vibrating, moving or generating excessive noise during
use.
If the appliance is installed on a carpeted floor, take care to ensure
that the openings in the bottom of the washing machine are not ob-
structed.
Also check that during operation the washing machine is not resting against
walls, kitchen units, etc.
The appliance must not be installed behind a door with lock, a sliding door,
or a door with hinge on the opposite side.
2.3 CONNECTING TO THE WATER SUPPLY
1.
Check that the water supply pressure is in the following
range: 0,05-0,9MPa. With higher pressures, use a pressure
reducer.
2.
Connect the cold water supply hose (blue screw collar)
to the cold water tap with ¾ gas threaded connector, taking
care to tighten firmly to prevent leaks. The water sup-
ply hose must not be kinked or crushed and must not
be changed or cut. Threaded connections must only
be tightened by hand.
3.
When appliances are supplied with hot water, the intake water tempera-
ture must not exceed 60°C and the hose with red screw collar must be con-
nected to the hot water supply tap.
WARNING!
If the connection is made to new pipelines, or lines which have been out
of use for a long time, allow a considerable amount of water to flow out be-
fore connecting the intake hose. This prevents any sand or other dirt from
fouling the filters installed in the appliance to protect the water intake
valves.
The new intake hose supplied with the appliance must be used, and the old
water supply hose must not be used.
Supplementary note regarding the water connection for the German mar-
ket.
Before connecting the product to the water supply, make sure that the water
system has been fitted with a safety device to protect drinking water against
contamination due to backflow (according to DIN EN 1717). The water valves
and/or taps are fitted with these safety devices if the water system of the house
has been properly implemented.
