Installation and Connection Instructions

Power supply

Details on the mains voltage,

type of current and the neces- sary fuse protection are to be found on the rating plate. The rating plate is above and

behind the door.

For permanent electrical con- nection within the electrical

circuit, provisions must be made which allow for electrical disconnec- tion of the appliance from the mains with a contact opening of at least 3 mm at all poles. Suitable devices include circuit breakers, fuses (thre- aded fuses must be entirely removed from the socket), ground fault cir- cuit interrupters and contactors. Permanent connection may only be carried out by an authorised electrician.

;This appliance conforms to the following EC directives

"Low-Voltage Directive" 73/23/EWG dated 19 February 1973 and Directive amendment 93/68/EWG

"EMC Directive" 89/336/EWG dated 3 May 1989 and Directive amendment 93/68/EWG

Water connection

3

The washing machine is provided with safety devices which prevent

 

reverse pollution of drinking water and conform to the State regula-

tions issued by water supply authorities (e.g. in Germany: DVGW Direc- tives). Further protective measures in the installation are hence unnecessary.

Attention! Appliances for cold water connection may not be con- nected to warm water!

Permissible water pressure

Water pressure must be equal to a least 1 bar (= 10N/cm2 = 0.1 MPa), and no more than 10 bar (= 100N/cm2 = 1 MPa).

By more than 10 bar: connect a pressure reduction valve upstream.

By less than 1 bar: Unscrew the flexible inlet tubing on the magnetic inlet valve on one side of the appliance and remove the flow meter (thereby remove the sieve by means of a pair of pointed pliers and then remove the rubber washer behind it). Remount the sieve.
