Hot and cold water connection

￿Connect the cold water intake hose (blue mark) to the cold water valve and the hot water intake hose (red mark) to the hot water valve.

Do not connect the washer to hot water only.

￿Turn on the valve(s) and check for leaks. The water pressure must be within 15 -145 psi (1 -10 bar). If the water pressure is greater that 145 psi (10 bar) a pressure reducer must be installed. If the water pressure is below 15 psi (1 bar) there will not be enough water available for a complete fill.

The water intake hoses are equipped with screen filters. Do not remove these filters except for cleaning.

Tips for a hot water connection

The hot water temperature from the hot water valve must not exceed 140°F (60°C); the ideal temperature is 130°F (55°C).

Cold water only connection

The washer must be reprogrammed for cold water only.

￿Press and hold the "Sensitive" button until the display reads:

Water intake

Hot + cold ￿

￿OK

￿Press the "￿" button until cold appears in the display. Confirm by pressing the OK button.

￿Attach a Y adapter to the cold water valve.

￿Attach both the hot and cold water intake hoses to the Y adapter.

Both hoses must be connected to a water source or the machine will not function properly.
