2. Set the hoses correctly by loosening the
ring nut. After positioning the inlet ho-
ses, be sure to tighten the ring nut again
to prevent water leaks.
3. Connect the hose for hot water to a hot
water tap with 3/4 thread. Connect the
cold water hose to a cold water tap with
3/4 thread.
If there is no tap for hot water, connect
only the cold water hose: the water will
be heated in the tub.
Always use the hoses 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 drainage
The end of the drain hose can be posi-
tioned in three ways.
•
Hooked over the edge of a sink
using
the plastic hose guide supplied with the
machine. In this case, make sure the end
cannot come unhooked when the ma-
chine is emptying. This could be done by
tying it to the tap with a piece of string or
attaching it to the wall.
•
In a sink drain pipe branch.
This
branch must be above the trap so that
the bend is at least 60 cm above the
ground.
•
Directly into a drain pipe
at a height of
not less than 60 cm and not more than
90 cm. The end of the drain hose must al-
ways be ventilated, i.e. the inside diame-
ter of the drain pipe must be larger than
the outside diameter of the drain hose.
The drain hose must not be kinked.
The drain hose may be extended to a maximum of 4 metres. An additional drain hose
and joining piece is available from your local Service Centre.
