Water drainage
14
The end of the hose connected to the back of the machine can
be turned in any direction. Simply slacken the connector fitting,
position the hose as required and fully tighten the connector to
avoid leakage of water.
Every appliance is fitted with a pump for discharging the wash
and rinse water. This pump is controlled by the programme selec­
tor mechanism and is capable of pumping water through the
drain hose to a height of up to 1 m above the surface on which
the machine is standing.
The curved end of the drain hose can be positioned in two ways:
Hooked over the edge of the sink. In view of the speed with
which the water comes out during the discharge phase, it is
important to ensure that the curved end of the hose cannot slip
off the edge of the sink. It should therefore be tied to the tap with
a piece of string or secured to the wall with a hook, by inserting
the hook into the hole provided in the curved part of the hose.
Joined into a branch of the sink waste pipe. The branch
must be above the sink trap and at least 60 cm above the floor.
The drain hose may be extended up to a maximum length of
180 cm. Use an extension with an internal diameter the same as
that of the original hose. Use a suitable connector.
The hose extension must rest on the floor and only the part near
the drainage point must be raised.
