Connecting to the water supply.

Important:
• The water supply pressure required to run the

machine must be 1-10 bar (0,1 – 1 MPa).

• Connect the special hoses supplied with the

machine to the water intake valves on the

machine.

• If you are going to use your double water-inlet

machine as a single (cold) water-inlet unit,

you must install the stopper*, supplied with

your machine to the hot water valve.

• If you want to use both water inlets of the

product, you can connect the hot water hose

after removing the stopper and gasket group

from the hot water valve.

* Applies for the products supplied with a blind

stopper group.
• Models with a single water inlet should not be

connected to the hot water tap.

When returning the appliance to its place after

maintenance or cleaning, care should be taken

not to fold, squeeze or block the hoses.

Connecting to the drain

The water discharge hose can be attached to the

edge of a washbasin or bathtub. The drain hose

should be firmly fitted into the drain as to not get

out of its housing.
Important:
• The end of the drain hose must be directly

connected to the wastewater drain or to the

washbasin.

• The hose should be attached to a height of at

least 40 cm, and 100 cm at most.

• In case the hose is elevated after laying it

on the floor level or close to the ground

(less than 40 cm above the ground), water

discharge becomes more difficult and the

laundry may come out wet.

• The hose should be pushed into the drainage

for more than 15 cm. If it is too long you may

have it shortened.

• The maximum length of the combined hoses

must not be longer than 3.2 m.

Electrical connection

Connect the machine to an earthed outlet

protected by a fuse of suitable capacity.
Important:

• Connection should comply with national

regulations.

• The voltage and the allowed fuse protection

are specified in the section “Technical

Specifications”.

• The specified voltage must be equal to your

mains voltage.

• Connection via extension cords or multi-plugs

should not be made.
