Water-stop device
The inlet hose is provided with a water stop de-
vice, 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.
Water drainage
The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways:
1. Hooked over the edge of a sink using the plastic hose guide supplied with the
machine.
In this case, make sure the end cannot come unhooked when the machine is empty-
ing.
This could be done by tying it to the tap
with a piece of string or attaching it to
the wall.
2. In a sink drain pipe branch. This
branch must be above the trap so that
the bend is at least 60 cm above the
ground.
3. Directly into a drain pipe at a height
of not less than 60 cm and not more
than 90 cm.
The end of the drain hose must always be
ventilated, i.e. the inside diameter of the
drain pipe must be larger than the outside
diameter of the drain hose.
The drain hose must not be kinked.
