Installation

Water inlet

Connect the water inlet hose to a tap with a 3/4" thread.

The other end of

the inlet hose which connects to the machine can be turned in any direc-

tion. Simply loosen

the fitting, rotate the hose and retighten the fitting, making sure there are no water leaks.

The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is too short and you do not wish to move the tap, you will have to purchase a new, longer hose spe- cially designed for this type of use.

WATER STOP

 

The inlet hose is provided with a water stop

 

device, which protects against damage caused

 

by water leaks in the hose which could devel-

 

op due to natural ageing of the hose. This

 

fault is shown by a red sector in the window

A

“A”. Should this occur, turn the water tap off

 

and refer to your Service Centre to replace the

 

hose.

Water drainage

The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways:

Hooked over the edge of a sink using the plastic hose guide supplied with the machine. In this case, make sure the end cannot come unhooked when the machine is emptying.

This could be done by tying it to the tap with a piece of string or attaching it to the

wall.

In a sink drain pipe branch. This branch must be above the trap so that the bend is at least 60 cm above the ground.
