hose, be sure to tighten the ring nut again to prevent leaks.

with the appliance.
Installation should comply with local water authority and building regulations
requirements. A minimum water pressure of 0.05 MPa 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 between the appliance’s inlet and the bottom of
the water storage tank.
Water-stop device
The inlet hose is provided with a water stop device,
which protects against damage caused by water leaks in
the hose which could develop due to natural ageing of
the hose. This fault is shown by a red sector in the
window “A”. Should this occur, turn the water tap off
and refer to your Service Centre to replace the hose.

break between the drain hose and
