Make sure that there are no kinks in the water inlet hose and that the water inlet hose is not squashed or entangled.

Fit the hose nut correctly to prevent water leaks.

Caution! Do not connect the appliance to new pipes or pipes that have been not used for a long time. Let the water run for some minutes, then connect the inlet hose.

The water inlet hose is double-walled and has an inner mains cable and a safety valve. The water inlet hose is under pressure only while the water is running. If there is a leak in the water inlet hose, , the safety valve inter- rupts the running water.

Be careful when you install the water inlet hose.

Warning!

•The mains cable is in the double-wal- led inlet hose. Do not immerse the wa- ter inlet hose or the safety valve in wa- ter.

•Do not attempt to shorten the inlet hose.

•If the water inlet hose or the safety valve is damaged, immediately turn off the power and remove the mains plug from the mains socket.

•Only a qualified Service Engineer can replace the water inlet hose with safe- ty valve.

Warning!

Dangerous voltage

In order to pass the safety valve through the kitchen cabinets, an opening of at least 45mm x 90mm is needed.

Water drain hose

The highest point of the drain hose must be no more than 60 cm from the floor and must

have a continuous fall to the plumbing con- nection.

The drain hose can be lengthened using ad- ditional lengths and connectors. These must be purchased from Electrolux Spare Parts.

The extension length must not exceed 2 me- tres.

The drain hose must be free of kinks and ob- structions.

Remove the sink plug when the appliance drains the water to prevent that the water goes back into the appliance.

If you connect the water drain hose to a trap spigot under the sink, remove the plastic membrane. If you do not remove the mem- brane, remaining food can cause a blockage in the drain hose spigot.

The appliance has a security feature to prevent dirty water going back into the appliance. If, the spigot of the sink has a 'non-return valve', this valve can cause the appliance to drain incorrectly. Re- move the non-return valve.

Caution! Make sure that the water couplings are tight to prevent water leakage.

Ensure that hoses are not crushed or kinked under or behind the appliance.

Once connected the inlet hose to the water tap, turn the tap on and check that there are no leaks.
