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.
Installation should comply with local water authority
and building regulations requirements. Check the
minimum water pressure required for safe operation
of the appliance in the chapter “Technical Data”.
If you cannot make the cold water connection direct
from the rising mains, you may be able to operate the
appliance from your cold water storage system. There
should be a minimum distance of between the appli-
ance’s inlet and the bottom of the water storage tank.
Water-stop device
The inlet hose is provided with a water stop device, which protects against
damage caused by water leaks in the hose which
could develop due to natural ageing of the hose.
This fault is shown by a red sector in the window
“A”. Should this occur, turn the water tap off and
refer to your Service Centre to replace the hose.
Water drainage
The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three
ways:
Hooked over the edge of a sink using the
plastic hose guide supplied with the machine.
In this case, make sure the end cannot come
unhooked when the machine is emptying.
This could be done by tying it to the tap with a piece
of string or attaching it to the wall.
