Installation instructions

Water supply



This clothes washer should be plumbed into both a hot and cold water supply otherwise some cycles may not function correctly.

For best operating conditions your hot water should be approximately 65˚C. Your hot water should not exceed 75˚C or your cold water exceed 35˚C. Temperatures above these may cause a fault or cause damage to the machine.

If you have an uncontrolled water-heating source (eg. a wet back or solar heating) you should have a tempering device fitted. This will ensure the hot water temperature remains within safe limits. For the most suitable type of tempering device we recommend you contact a local plumber or plumbing supply merchant.

Inlet Water Static Pressure of between 3psi (20kPa) and 150psi (1MPa) is recommended.

(If using a header tank then the top of the header tank must be at least 2 metres above the top of your clothes washer).

Minimum flow rate from the tap supplying the clothes washer should be greater than 6 litres/min (assumes 12.7mm (1/2 inch) diameter pipes).

Minimum height of taps to clear the top of the machine is 1150 mm.

Inlet hoses

1Connect the straight ends of the white inlet hoses to the taps (there are washers fitted in both ends).

2Connect the elbow ends of the white inlet hoses to the machine inlet valves. Inlet valves are marked on the back of the machine.
