Installation Instructions

Water Supply

For best operating conditions your hot water
should be approximately 65˚C. Your cold water
should not exceed 35˚C or your hot water exceed
75˚C. Temperatures above these may cause the
machine to fault or cause damage to the machine.
If you have an uncontrolled water heating source
(eg a wet back or solar heating system) you should
fit a Safe Valve. This will ensure the hot water
temperature remains within safe limits.
Inlet water pressure: Max.1MPa (150 psi) Min. 34Pa (5 psi)
Inlet water flow rate: Min. 3 litres/min
Minimum height of taps to clear the top of the machine is 1150mm.

Draining

Regularly check that your standpipe or tub is free from lint or other obstructions, which may
affect how your machine works or may cause flooding.
In multi-storey apartments or any upper floor, the machine should be installed on a drained floor.
Draining must comply with local by-laws.

Autowasher Safety

This autowasher is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.
Your Smart Drive® can now be opened while it is filling and agitating, supervise young children

CAUTION!
If you are using an extension cord or a portable electrical outlet device (eg multi-socket outlet
box), ensure that it is positioned so that it does not come into contact with water or moisture.
