•Connect the other end of the hose to the water intake. Then securely tighten the connection nut.
•Make sure that the gasket is in C place.It is important that the drain hose
bend is correctly fastened to the outlet, to prevent any risk of it becoming detached and causing flooding.
C If your washing machine has a hot water intake, connect the hose with the red threaded end to the hot water tap, and to the electrovalve with the red filter.
C The washing machine must be connected to the mains water supply, using the new supply hoses supplied with the appliance. Do not use water supply hoses that have been used before. For your washing machine to work properly, the mains water pressure must be between
0.05and 1MPa (0.05 and 10 Kgr/
cm2).
Drainage connection
To make the washing machine ready for use, make sure that tap water supply and water drainage systems are appropriate before calling the authorised service agent. If they are not, call a qualified plumber to have any necessary arrangements carried out.
• It is recommended that you have a fixed drainage outlet 50 to 70 cm from the floor.
Avoid the drain hose being too tight, kinked or restricted.
• The end of the drain hose must be directly connected to the wastewater drain or to the washbasin.
• The end of the drain hose must always be secured regardless of the connection type.
AYour floor will be flooded if the hose
comes out of its housing during water discharge.
•In case the hose is routed at floor level or close to the floor (less than 50 cm) and then rises higher, water discharge becomes more difficult and laundry will come out wetter than normal. Therefore, follow the heights described in the figure.
•To prevent flow of dirty water back to the washing machine and to allow for easy discharge, the end of the hose must not be inserted in to the drain more than 15 cm. If it is too long, cut it shorter.
•The end of the hose should not be bent, it should not be stepped on and the hose must not be pinched between the drain and the machine.
