Water Connection

Your washing machine is fitted with safety devices that prevent drink-
ing water contamination and comply with the regulations of the water
authorities in your country (e.g. in Germany: DVGW Directives). It is
therefore not necessary to take further protective measures in the
installation.
Permissible water pressure
Water pressure must be equal to a least 1 bar (= 10N/cm
2
= 0.1 MPa),
and no more than 10 bar (= 100N/cm
2
= 1 MPa).
• By more than 10 bar: connect a pressure reduction valve upstream.
• By less than 1 bar: Unscrew the flexible inlet tubing on the magnetic
inlet valve on one side of the appliance and remove the flow meter
(thereby remove the sieve by means of a pair of pointed pliers and
then remove the rubber washer behind it). Remount the sieve.
