Water inlet
The inlets on the back of the appliance are colour coded,
blue for cold and red for hot.
Connect the hose supplied with the machine to a tap
with a 3/4” thread.
Do not use previously used hoses.
If only a cold water supply is available, connect the two
hoses to a cold water outlet by means of a «Y»
connection piece.
Installation should comply with local water authority
and building regulations’ requirements.
The appliance must be given a separate cold water
supply and not be connected to a mixer tap, a single
outlet water heater or a booster pump. A minimum
water pressure of 0.05 MPa (0.48) bar is required for
safe operation of the appliance.
If you cannot make the cold water connection direct
from the rising mains, you may be able to operate the
appliance from your cold water storage system.
There should be a minimum distance of 5.02m
(16.5 ft) between the appliance’s inlet and the bottom of
the water storage tank.
There will be sufficient pressure for the hot water
supply, providing there is a minimun height of 2.74
metres (9 ft) between the bottom of the cold water
storage tank and the bottom of the hot water cylinder.
Set the hoses correctly by loosening the ring nuts. After
positioning the inlet hoses, be sure to tighten the ring
nuts again to prevent leaks.

Water drainage
This appliance is designed to be permanently plumbed
into your home's drainage system using one of the
following methods.
1. Into a drainage standpipe.
Firstly form a hook in the end of the drain hose using
the “U” piece” supplied.
Place the drain hose into your standpipe, which should
have an internal diameter of approximately 38mm thus
ensuring there is an air break between the drain hose
and standpipe.
When discharging into a standpipe ensure that the top of
the standpipe is no more than 90cm (35.4'') and no less
than 60cm (23.6'') above floor level.
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 Force Centre.
The joining piece must have an internal diameter of
18mm.
