Electrolux EX601SC User Manual page 19

The water pressure must be in the limits (re-
fer to 'Technical data'). Make sure that the
local water authority gives you the average
mains pressure in your area.
Make sure that there are no kinks in the
water inlet hose and that the water inlet
hose is not squashed or entangled.
Fit the hose nut correctly to prevent water
leaks.
Caution! Do not connect the appliance
to new pipes or pipes that have been
not used for a long time. Let the water
run for some minutes, then connect the
inlet hose.
The water inlet hose is double-walled and
has an inner mains cable and a safety valve.
The water inlet hose is under pressure only
while the water is running. If there is a leak
in the water inlet hose, , the safety valve in-
terrupts the running water.
Be careful when you install the water inlet
hose.
Warning!
• The mains cable is in the double-
walled inlet hose. Do not immerse
the water inlet hose or the safety
valve in water.
• Do not attempt to shorten the inlet
hose.
• If the water inlet hose or the safety
valve is damaged, immediately turn
off the power and remove the mains
plug from the mains socket.
• Only a qualified Service Engineer can
replace the water inlet hose with
safety valve.
Warning!
Dangerous voltage
In order to pass the safety valve
through the kitchen cabinets, an open-
ing of at least 45mm x 90mm is nee-
ded.
Water drain hose
Use the supplied hose clamp to connect
the water drain hose to the sink.
The highest point of the drain hose must be
no more than 60 cm from the floor and
must have a continuous fall to the plumbing
connection.
The drain hose can be lengthened using
additional lengths and connectors. These
must be purchased from Electrolux Spare
Parts. The extension length must not ex-
ceed 2 metres.
The drain hose must be free of kinks and
obstructions.
Remove the sink plug when the appliance
drains the water to prevent that the water
goes back into the appliance.
If you connect the water drain hose to a
trap spigot under the sink, remove the plas-
tic membrane. If you do not remove the
membrane, remaining food can cause a
blockage in the drain hose spigot
