Connecting the drain hose
Connect the drain
hose, without bending
it, to a draining duct or
a wall drain situated
between 65 and 100
cm from the floor;
The drain hose may
be connected to an
under-sink trap. Be-
fore connecting the
drain hose from the
machine ensure that
any blanks or remo-
vable ends have been
taken off the spigot.
If it is placed over the
edge of a basin or sink
be sure the free end of
the hose should not
be underwater.
! We advise against the use of hose extensions; in
case of absolute need, the extension must have the
same diameter as the original hose and must not
exceed 150 cm in length. Ensure that if the drain
hose is pushed into a standpipe, that the end does
not go down more than 15cms (6 inches). If the hose
is pushed down too far, this may cause the machine
to self -syphon ie. continuously empty as it is filling.
Electric connection
Before plugging the appliance into the mains
socket, make sure that:
• the socket is earthed and in compliance with
the applicable law;
• the socket is able to sustain the appliance’s
maximum power load indicated on the Technical
Data Plate fixed on the machine;
65 - 100 cm
Where it connects to
the waste water pipe
cut end off spigot or
remove the blanking cap
• the supply voltage is included within the values
indicated on the Technical Data Plate fixed on

• the socket is compatible with the washing
machine’s plug. If this is not the case, replace
the socket or the plug.
Your appliance is now supplied with a 13 amp fu-
sed plug it can be plugged into a 13 amp socket
for immediate use. Before using the appliance
please read the instructions below.
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD BE
CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
Replacing the fuse:
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA
approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be
used, and the fuse cover re-fitted. If the fuse
cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a
replacement is obtained.
Replacement fuse covers:
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of
the correct colour as indicated by the coloured
marking or the colour that is embossed in words
on the base of the plug. Replacements can be
obtained directly from your nearest Service Depot.
Removing the plug:
If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded
plug and you should wish to re-route the mains
cable through partitions, units etc., please en-
sure that either:
the plug is replaced by a fused 13 ampere rewi-
reable plug bearing the BSI mark of approval.
or:
the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp
cable outlet, controlled by a switch, (in complian-
ce with BS 5733) which is accessible without
moving the appliance.
Disposing of the plug:
Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself,
you make the pins unusable so that it cannot be
accidentally inserted into a socket.
