4.1.4 Connecting water supply

C
INFORMATION
• It is necessary to have 10 – 80 liters of
water flowing from the fully open tap in
one minute to have your machine run
smoothly. Attach a pressure reducing
valve if water pressure is higher.
A
CAUTION!
• Models with a single water inlet should
not be connected to the hot water
tap. In such a case the laundry will get
damaged or the product will switch to
protection mode and will not operate.
1 Tighten the nuts of the hose by hand.
Never use a tool when tightening the nuts.
2 When hose connection is completed,
check whether there is leak problems at the
connection points by opening the taps fully. If
any leaks occur, turn off the tap remove the
nut. Retighten the nut carefully after checking
the seal. In order to prevent the water leaks
and resultant damages, keep the taps closed
when you do not use the product.
4.1.5 Connecting the drain
hose to the drain
• Attach the end of the drain hose directly to
waste water drain, lavatory or bathtub.
A
CAUTION!
• Your drain house will be flooded if the
hose comes out of its housing during
water discharge. Moreover, there is
risk of scalding due to high washing
temperatures! In order to prevent
such situations and make sure that
the machine performs water intake
and discharge processes without any
problem, fix the drain hose securely.
8 / EN
• Connect the drain hose to a minimum height
of 40 cm and a maximum height of 100 cm.
• In case the drain hose is elevated after laying
it on the floor level or close to the ground
(less than 40 cm above the ground), water
discharge becomes more difficult and the
laundry may come out excessively wet.
Therefore, follow the heights described in
the figure.
• To prevent the waste water to siphon back
into the machine again and to ensure easy
drainage, do not immerse the end of the
hose into the waste water or do not insert
it into the drain for more than 15 cm. If it is
too long, cut it short.
• The end of the hose should not be bent,
it should not be stepped on and the hose
must not be pinched between the drain and
the machine.
• If the length of the hose is too short, use
it by adding an original extension hose.
Length of the hose may not be longer than
3.2 m. To avoid water leak failures, the
connection between the extension hose and
the drain hose of the product must be fitted
well with an appropriate clamp as not to
come off and leak.

4.1.6 Adjusting the feet

A
CAUTION!
• In order to ensure that the product
operates more silently and vibration-
free, it must stand level and balanced
on its feet. Balance the machine by
adjusting the feet. Otherwise, the product
may move from its place and cause
crushing and vibration problems.
• Do not use any tools to loosen the lock
nuts. Otherwise, they will get damaged.
