Installation Instructions - Asko W6022 Use & Care Manual

Installation instructions

Read these instructions carefully and
completely before you install the machine.
The installation should be carried out by a
qualified person who is familiar with all lo-
cal codes and ordinances for electrical and
plumbing connections.
Cosmetic damage must be reported to
your dealer within five days from the date
of purchase. After unpacking the washer,
thoroughly check the unit for cosmetic
damage.
Leveling the machine
It is important that the machine is level
so it won't vibrate excessively during the
spinning cycles. Each foot on the washer
is adjustable, so you can level the washer
on any surface. Once it is level, securely
tighten the lock nuts on the feet to prevent
excessive vibration during the spin cycles.
Be sure to tighten the lock
nuts securely when you level
the machine.
Water supply connection
Because ASKO washers have their own
heating element, you only need to have
a cold water inlet. The connection should
be made by someone who is sufficiently
skilled. Use the hose supplied with the
washer. (The inlet hose is marked for prop-
er connections.)
Water pressure must be in the range of
15–146 PSI.
A tap should be fitted on the water supply
pipe.
If a new supply pipe has been installed for
the washer, it should be flushed thoroughly
to remove any foreign particles that might
clog the strainer in the water inlet.

Note: If unit is installed on a second story,
follow local building codes. We recommend
a drip pan be installed.
Drain outlet connection
The machine is supplied with the outlet
hose already attached. The hose should be
extended over a suitable sink edge or drain
pipe at a height of 24" to 36" (610 mm to
914 mm) above the bottom of the unit. (The
lower height is preferable.) Make sure that
the hose is not kinked.
NOTE:If the hose is extended, the internal
diameter of the coupling must not be less
than 1/2".
Warning!
Do not extend the drain hose higher than
36" (914 mm) from the bottom of the unit.
