Caution! Do not connect the appliance
to new pipes or pipes that have been
not used for a long time. Let the water
run for some minutes, then connect the
inlet hose.
Water drain hose
The highest point of the drain hose must be
no more than 60 cm from the floor and
must have a continuous fall to the plumbing
connection.
The drain hose can be lengthened using
additional lengths and connectors. These
must be purchased from Electrolux Spare
Parts. The extension length must not ex-
ceed 2 metres.
The drain hose must be free of kinks and
obstructions.
Remove the sink plug when the appliance
drains the water to prevent that the water
goes back into the appliance.
If you connect the water drain hose to a
trap spigot under the sink, remove the plas-
tic membrane. If you do not remove the
membrane, remaining food can cause a
blockage in the drain hose spigot.
The appliance has a security feature to
prevent dirty water going back into the
appliance. If, the spigot of the sink has
a 'non-return valve', this valve can
cause the appliance to drain incorrect-
ly. Remove the non-return valve.
Caution! Make sure that the water
couplings are tight to prevent water
leakage.
Ensure that hoses are not crushed or
kinked under or behind the appliance.
Once connected the inlet hose to the
water tap, turn the tap on and check
that there are no leaks.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Warning! Safety standards require the
appliance to be earthed.
Prior to using the appliance for the first
time, ensure that the rated voltage and
type of supply on the rating plate
match that of the supply where the ap-
pliance is to be installed.
The fuse rating is also to be found on
the rating plate.
Always plug the mains plug onto a cor-
rectly installed approved socket.
Do not use multi-ways plugs, connec-
tors and extension cables. This can
constitute a fire hazard through over-
heating.
If necessary, have the domestic wiring
system socket replaced. If the mains
cable has to be replaced, contact your
local Customer Care centre.
The mains plug must be accessible af-
ter the appliance has been installed.
Never unplug the appliance by pulling
on the cable. Always pull the plug.
Test the appliance. Run a quick wash-
ing program and ensure that the appli-
ance fills with water, washes and drains
with no leaks.
The manufacturer accepts no liability
for failure to observe the above safety
precautions.
