Water Drainage

The appliance drain hose should hook into a standpipe, the hook in the drain hose is formed using the plastic “U-Piece“ supplied. The standpipe should have an internal diameter of approximately 38 mm (see dia- gram) thus ensuring there is an air break between the drain hose and standpipe.

When discharging into a stand- pipe ensure that the top of the curve in the hose end is no more than 90 cm (35.4’’) and no less than 60 cm (23.6’’) above floor level.

Max 90 cm (35,4“)

Min 60 cm (23,6“)

The upright standpipe should have a minimum, length of

30 cm (12’’) from the bottom of the elbow to the top of the pipe (see diagram). Make sure that it is designed in such a way that the end of the drain hose can- not be covered with water. Longer drain hoses are availa- ble in lengths of 2.7 and 4 metres from your AEG Service Force Centre.

If you intend the drain hose from the washing machine to empty into a sink, make sure that the sink is empty and the plug hose is not blocked. Use the plastic “U-Piece“ supplied.

Min 30 cm (12“)

38mm (11/2“) diameter standpipe
