Water Pressure

The appliance is designed to operate within the following water

pressure limits:

– minimum 1 bar (14.5 p. s. i.)

– maximum 10 bar (145 p. s. i.)
IMPORTANT!
• At more than 10 bar (145 p. s. i.): Install pressure-reducing valve.
• At less than 1 bar (14.5 p. s. i.): Unscrew the inlet hose from the appli-

ance at the inlet solenoid valve and remove the flow regulator (to do

this, remove the sieve with needle-nose pliers and remove rubber

washer behind the sieve). Replace sieve. Retain the washer for future

use.

Inlet Hose Connection

The inlet hose provided is 1.2 or 1.3 metres depending on the model. If

a longer inlet hose is required contact your AEG Service Force Centre.

Under no circumstances should hoses be connected together to provide

a longer length.
The rubber washers are either set into the inlet hose threaded connec-

tion or supplied separately in the installation kit. These washers must be

fitted to ensure water tight seals. Do not use any other washer.
