3. Set the hose correctly by loosening
the ring nut.
After positioning the inlet hose, be
sure to tighten the ring nut again to
prevent leaks.
4. Connect the hose to a tap with a
3/4" thread. Always use the hose
supplied with the appliance.
The inlet hose must not be lengthened.
If it is too short and you do not wish to
move the tap, you will have to
purchase a new, longer hose specially
designed for this type of use.
Water-stop device
The inlet hose is provided with a water
stop device, which protects against
damage caused by water leaks in the
hose which could develop due to
natural ageing of the hose. This fault is
shown by a red sector in the window
«A». Should this occur, turn the water
tap off and refer to your Service Centre
to replace the hose.

local water authority and building
regulations' requirements.
