Connecting the drain hose
 

Connect the drain hose, 
without bending it, to a 
draining duct or a wall 
drain situated between 
65 and 100 cm from the 
floor;

The drain hose may 
be connected to an 
under-sink trap. Before 
connecting 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.
 

!

 We advise against the use of hose extensions; in case 

of absolute need, the extension must have the same 
diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 
cm in length.
Ensure that if the drain hose is pushed into a standpipe, 
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 in the Technical details  
   table 

(see page 5)

;

•   the supply voltage is included within the values indica- 
  ted on the Technical Data Plate fixed on the machine;

• the socket is compatible with the washing machine’s plug.  
   If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.

Your appliance is now supplied with a 13 amp fused plug 
it can be plugged into a 13 amp socket for immediate use. 
Before using the appliance please read the instructions 
below.

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 
partitions, units etc., please ensure that either:
the plug is replaced by a fused 13 ampere rewireable plug 
bearing the BSI mark of approval. 
or:
the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp cable outlet, 
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.
 
Instructions for connecting cable to an alternative plug:
Important: the wires in the mains lead are coloured in 
accordance with the following code:

Green & Yellow  Earth
