Plumbing in
Your new washing machine has been
designed to be permanently plumbed in to
your home’s water supply and drainage
system. However, if this is not possible, it
may be connected to a suitable existing tap
with the drain hose discharging into a sink.
The appliance has an inlet hose, with female
3/4” BSP thread connector. If this
connection is not compatible with the
plumbing of the existing installation, a variety
of connectors are available from good
hardware stores and plumbers merchants to
suit most domestic plumbing. Any alteration
to your existing plumbing must be carried
out by a competent person, or qualified
plumber.
Water inlet
An inlet hose is supplied and can been found
inside the machine drum. Do not use the
hose from your previous machine to
connect to the water supply.
Important! This appliance must be
connected to a cold water supply.
1. Open the porthole and extract the inlet
hose.
2. Connect the hose with the angled
connection to the machine. Do not
place the inlet hose downwards. 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.
The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it
is too short and you do not wish to move
the tap, you will have to purchase a new,
longer hose specially designed for this type
of use.
