sufficient load carrying capacity.
The machine height is only adjustable at

orientated on a floor that is level on either
side and the back is either level or higher
than the front.
Choose a well ventilated dry location out
•
of direct sunlight.
Do not place the machine on the power
•
cable.
Do not install the machine at places where
•
the temperature may fall below 0ºC.
Place the machine at least 10 mm away
•
from the edges of other furniture.
Hot and cold water taps should be located
•
within 1 metre of the inlet valves.

Connecting the water supply
The water supply pressure required
to run the machine is between 1 to
10 bars (0 1 - 1 MPa).
5
It is necessary to have 10 - 80 litres
1
of water flowing from the fully open
2
tap per minute in order to have
your machine run smoothly. Attach
3
a pressure reducing valve if the
4
water pressure is higher.
If you are going to use the double
water inlet machine as a single
(cold) water-inlet unit, install the
supplied stopper to the hot water
valve before operating the machine
(Only applies to machines supplied
with a blind stopper for closing off
the hot water valve)

Review information in the user manual and
ensure that the electricity, water supply and
6
water drainage systems are appropriate. If
7
they are not, call a qualified technician and
plumber to have any necessary
arrangements carried out.
Connect the special hoses supplied with the
machine to the water inlets on the machine
Red hose (left) (max hot water temperature
for the machine is 60 °C) is for hot water
inlet, blue hose (right) (max 25 °C) is for cold
water inlet.
