Cleaning the filter

Warning

When the appliance is in use and
depending on the programme
selected there can be hot water in the
filler. Never remove the filter during a
wash cycle, always wait until the
appliance has finished the cycle, and
is empty. When replacing the filter,
ensure it is securely retightened. This
will prevent leaks and also stop
young children being able to remove
the filter.

The water inlet filters

If your water is very hard or contains
traces of lime deposit, the water inlet
filters may become clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean

them from time to time.

Turn off the water taps. Unscrew the

water inlet hoses.

Replace the filters and tighten up the
inlet hoses.

Installation instructions

8

Slide out the 3 plastic pins and stop
the holes with the plastic plugs
supplied with the instruction booklet.

Your new AEG washing machine has

been designed to be permanently
plumbed in to your home’s water
supply and drainage system. How­

ever, if this is not possible, it may be
connected to suitable existing taps,
with the drain hose discharging into a
sink.

The appliance has two inlet valves,

hot and cold, with female 3/4” BSP
thread connectors. If this connection
size is not compatible with the
plumbing of the existing installation,
a variety of connectors are available
from good hardware stores and
plumbers merchants to suit most

domestic plumbing. Any alterations to
your existing plumbing must be
carried out by a competent person, or
qualified plumber.

The inlets on the back of the
appliance are colour coded, blue for
cold, red for hot.

Before connecting the hoses be sure

to fit the mesh filters supplied as per
diagram.

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
7 psi 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.
