Drainage Connection

! Although you may need to move the hooked end
support along the grey drainage hose, DO NOT
remove it.
! Whichever drainage method you use, make sure
that the hooked end support is fixed level to, or
above the 'Plumbing Indicator Line' (see Description).
We recommend one of the following:
Standpipe method:
1. Make sure the standpipe
Hooked end
height is a minimum 500mm
support
from the floor.
2. Insert the drainage hose
minimum: approximately 100mm into the
500mm
standpipe.
Under sink method:
1. Cut off the blocked end of
the under sink drainage unit.
2. Fix the hooked end support
a minimum of 800mm from the
floor.
3. Use a hose clip (eg. a
Hose clip
jubilee clip) to securely attach
minimum:
800mm
the grey drainage hose end to
from floor
the under sink drainage unit
using a hose.
Did you know?...
...it is very important to ensure that your hoses or cables are not kinked or squashed as this can lead
to your machine failing to fill or empty the water.
...it is very important to respect the dimensions given within the drainage connection methods (see
above).
...the most common cause of problems with water connection is that the customer has not turned the
supply tap on!
...you will be charged for a service engineers visit if a problem with your machine is caused by incorrect
installation or misuse.
Electrical connections

make sure that:
the socket is earthed and in compliance with the
applicable law.
the socket is able to sustain the appliances
maximum power load indicated in the Technical

the supply voltage is included within the values
indicated in the Technical Details table (see page 6).
the socket is compatible with the machines plug.
If this is not the case, replace the socket or the

! The machine should not be installed in an outdoor
environment, not even when the area is sheltered,
because it may be very dangerous to leave it exposed
to rain and thunderstorms.
! When the machine is installed, the mains socket
must be within easy reach and should be connected
to a suitable electrical supply.
! Do not use extensions or multiple sockets.
! The power supply cable must never be bent or
dangerously compressed.
! The power supply cable must only be replaced by
an authorised serviceman.
