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 purchase a new, longer hose specially designed for this type of use.
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.
