Installation

Water inlet (cold water connection only)

Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4” thread.

Installation should comply with local water authority and building regulations’ requirements.

Set the hose correctly

by loosening the ring nut. After positioning the inlet hose, be sure to tighten the ring nut again to prevent leaks.

Do not connect to a hot water supply.

The inlet hose is provided with a water stop device, which protects against damage caused by water leaks in the hose which could develop due to natural ageing of the hose. This fault is shown by a red sector in the window “A”. Should this occur, turn the water tap off and refer to your Service Force Centre to replace A the hose.

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 cannot be covered with water.
