WATER CONNECTION

Your machine is designed to be connected to both hot and
cold water supplies. Cold water supplied direct from the
water mains or from a storage tank in the loft of the house will
normally be suitable. Most domestic hot water systems are
suitable, i.e.:
1. Hot water storage tank heated by gas, solid fuel boiler or
2. Multiple outlet gas instantaneous water heated with
NOTE
Single outlet gas or electric water heaters are not suitable
and must not be used. If you are in any doubt contact the
water heater manufacturer or the Gas/Electricity Company.
If your hot water supply is unsuitable then you may connect
both fill hoses to the cold water supply. The machine will take
longer to wash on certain programmes as the water has to be
heated by the machine. Although it's possible to effect
temporary connections for both waste and water supply, we
recommend that the washing machine is permanently
plumbed in. To do so connect the two water outlet pipes with
their 3/4" BSP female connectors to a suitably threaded tap.
Ensure that there are no kinks in the pipe and try not to drop
or mislay the black rubber washers.
DRAIN:
Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe (with a minimum
internal diameter of 4 cm.) or hook it on a sink or bathtub,

machine is switched off after each programme.
