Maximum height of the washing machine is 850 mm.

IMPORTANT

The floor on which the machine stands should be dry, otherwise the machine may slide during the spinning cycle.

Connection to the Water Supply

The elbow connection of the inlet hose is fixed to the coupling on the rear wall of the appliance. Insert a rubber washer with a net (filter) into a nut on the other end of the hose, and fix the hose to a tap. To ensure efficient operation, the water pressure of the water supply should be between 0.5 and 8.0 bars.

IMPORTANT

The highest allowed temperature of hot water is 60°C.

Water Outlet

Hook the outlet hose securely over the edge of the washbasin or bath tub. The outlet hose can also be connected directly to the plumbing outlet, the diameter of which should be not less than 4 cm (fig. 7).

Wall siphon drain must be correctly fitted in such manner to enable cleaning.

If water is drained through a washbasin, always check it is drained quickly enough, otherwise an overflow may occur or the machine may pump the water back. Pull a string through the hole on the plastic knee, and secure the outlet hose to prevent it from falling off (fig. 8).

If the pressure exceeds the maximum allowed limit, fit a pressure regulator. (Open the tap fully - in 15 seconds, 3 litres of water should pour out; and this is the minimum pressure of the water supply).

Connection to cold water

Insert the enclosed washer with filter into the loose end of the hose and connect the hose to water tap (fig. 6).

Connection to hot/cold water

Washing machines designed for the connection to hot/cold water are equipped with two inlet hoses. The attachment and the inlet hose for hot water are marked with red colour.

Insert the enclosed washers with filter into the loose ends of the hoses and connect the red marked hose to hot water tap and the other hose to cold water tap (fig. 6.1).

The end of the outlet hose should be raised from the floor by not more than 100 cm and not less than 60 cm. If the hose is positioned higher than recommended, the machine will not pump out the water.
