Water inlet hose

Check the inlet hose regularly for brittleness and cracks and replace it if necessary using a new hose of the same type. The inlet hose as shown on picture “A” has a safety valve to prevent the appliance against uncontrolled water inlet; if the safety valve inspection window is red, the safety valve has been activated and the hose must be exchanged. Contact out After- Sales Service or your specialist dealer to obtain a new inlet hose. If your inlet hose has a transparent hose coating (fig. “B”), periodically check the colour of the transparent coating. If the coating begins to turn red, this is an indication that the hose may have a leak and should be replaced. Contact our After-Sales Service team or specialist dealer to obtain a replacement hose.
