The drain hose may be connected to an under- sink trap. Before connec- ting the drain hose from the machine ensure that any blanks or removable ends have been taken off the spigot.

If it is placed over the edge of a basin or sink be sure the free end of the hose should not be underwater.

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Replacing the fuse:

When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be used, and the fuse cover re-fitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained.

Replacement fuse covers:

If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the correct colour as indicated by the coloured marking or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug. Replacements can be obtained directly from your nearest Service Depot.

Removing the plug:

If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug and you should wish to re-route the mains cable through parti- tions, units etc., please ensure that either:

the plug is replaced by a fused 13 ampere rewireable plug bearing the BSI mark of approval.

!We advise against the use of hose extensions; in case of absolute need, the extension must have the same diame- ter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length.

Ensure that if the drain hose is pushed into a standpi- pe, that the end does not go down more than 15cms (6 inches). If the hose is pushed down too far, this may cause the machine to self -syphon ie. continuously empty as it is filling.

Electric connection

Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, make sure that:

the socket is earthed and in compliance with the applicable law;

the socket is able to sustain the appliance’s maximum power load indicated on the Technical Data Plate fixed on the machine;

or:

the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp cable out- let, controlled by a switch, (in compliance with BS 5733) which is accessible without moving the appliance.

Disposing of the plug:

Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, you make the pins unusable so that it cannot be accidentally inserted into a socket.
