NOTICE
Risk of damage
Improper installation and set-up of the
appliance may result in damage.
■
If a trolley is used to move the ap-
pliance, the appliance must be lifted
as shown on the packaging. Always
transport the appliance vertically and
with a built-in transport safety device.
■
If the appliance is standing in a room
susceptible to frost, the water in the
appliance can freeze in below-zero
temperatures. For this reason, drain
away the leftover water if there is a
risk of frost to avoid damages to the
appliance.
■
Remove all transport safety devices
prior to installation.
■
Do not stand the appliance on top of
other appliances. Do not use the ap-
pliance as a stand for other applianc-
es (e.g. tumble dryer) and never sit or
stand on the appliance.
■
Do not stand the appliance on rugs or
carpets. Otherwise it will not be venti-
lated well enough and can overheat
and become damaged as a result.
For rugs, carpet, parquet or wood-
en fl oorboards, place a stable wood-
en plate measuring at least 60× 60
cm underneath the appliance.
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to water damage.
■
Do not leave the appliance unsuper-
vised for long periods of time while
the valve is open. When draining
as a result of leakiness, substantial
amounts of water may leak out.
■
Do not connect the appliance to the
hot water supply.
■
Only connect the appliance to a wa-
ter supply with an inlet water pressure
between 0.1 Mpa and 1.0 Mpa (1.0 to
10.0 bar). For higher water pressure,
a pressure regulator needs to be in-
stalled. Enquire about the water pres-
sure with the local waterworks.
■
Close the water valve after every use.
■
Close the water valve before cleaning
the water inlet fi lter.
■
Only use the hose set delivered with
the appliance to connect to the water
supply. Do not use old hose sets.
■
Do not extend the water outlet hose
or replace it with another hose.
■
Make sure that the water outlet hose
is not bent or twisted.
■
Be aware that substantial amounts
of water may leak out during emer-
gency draining.
■
Make sure that the curvature of the
water outlet hose is at least 60 cm
(max. 100 cm) above the ground to
ensure the water drain functions per-
fectly.
■
Ensure that the water outlet hose is
in the retaining clips on the back of
the appliance so that the curvature
always remains above the waterline.
■
Do not submerge the end of the hose
in the pumped water.
