1. Open the porthole and extract the inlet hose.
2. Connect the hose with the angled 
connection to the machine.
Important!
Do not place the inlet hose down-
wards. Angle the hose to the left 
or right depending on the position 
of your water tap. 
3. Set the hose correctly by loosening
the ring nut. After positioning the 
inlet hose, be sure to tighten the 
ring nut again to prevent leaks.
4. Connect the hose to a tap with a
3/4” thread. 
Always use the hose supplied with 
the appliance. 
Installation should comply with local 
water authority and building regula-
tions’ requirements.
A minimum water pressure of 0.05 
MPa (0.5 bar) is required for safe op-
eration 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 5.02m (16.5 ft) between the 
appliance’s inlet and the bottom of the water storage tank.
Aqua Control
The inlet hose is provided with a wa-
ter stop device, which protects 
against damage caused by water 
leaks in the hose which could devel-
op 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 re-
fer to your Service Centre to replace 
the hose.
