Only use the inlet hose supplied or one that was purchased from an authorised specialist retailer. – The water supply and drain hoses can be routed to the left or right, depending on installation conditions. Water supply Do not allow the water supply hose to be: – bent, squashed, modified or cut through (otherwise its strength is no longer guaranteed). Note the water pressure in the mains supply: – The water pressure should be between 50-900 kPa (0.5-9 bar) (at least 8 litres of water flow out per minute when the tap is turned on). – If the water pressure is higher than this, a pressure reducing valve must be installed. Connect the supply hose to the cold water tap with ¾" connection. Only tighten the screw connections by hand. Do not remove the filter from the supply hose. After connecting the water supply hose: – Open the water tap carefully, checking the leak tightness of the connection points. – Caution: The screw connection is under mains water pressure.

27 Water drainage – Do not kink the drain hose or pull it lengthways. – Height difference between the installation surface and the drain: max. 90 cm, min. 50 cm. Secure the connection point with a 24-40 mm hose clamp. Electrical connection The washing machine must only be connected to an alternating current using a properly installed earthed socket. Only use earth-leakage circuit breakers with the following symbol: The power supply and voltage information indicated on the washing machine (rating plate) must be the same. The connected load and fuse required are specified on the rating plate. Make sure that: – the mains plug fits the socket. – the cable cross-section is adequate. – the earthing system is properly installed. – the appliance is not standing on the mains cable. – the mains plug is accessible at all times. Changes to the mains cable may only be carried out by a qualified electrician. Do not use multiple plugs/adapters or extension cables. Mains plug: – do not plug in or unplug the mains plug when your hands are wet. – pull the appliance plug out of the socket at the plug only, not by the cable. – never unplug the plug during operation. Fitting the door hinges to the washing machine Once the washing machine has been installed in a kitchen unit, it can be concealed using a door. If you wish to do this, you must fit the supplied hinges to the washing machine. Drainage into a siphon
