Water inlet
An inlet hose is supplied and can be found
inside the machine drum.
Caution! This appliance must be
connected to a cold water supply.
Do not use the hose from your pre-
vious machine to connect to the wa-
ter supply.
1. Open the porthole and extract the inlet
hose.
2. Connect the hose with the angled con-
nection to the machine.
Caution! Do not place the inlet
hose downwards. Angle the hose
to the left or right depending on the
position of your water tap.
3. 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.
4. Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4”
thread. Always use the hose supplied
with the appliance.
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 pur-
chase a new, longer hose specially de-
signed for this type of use.
Installation should comply with local wa-
ter authority and building regulations re-
quirements. Check the minimum water
pressure required for safe operation of
the appliance in the chapter "Technical
Data".
Water-stop device
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
Centre to replace the hose.
