Connect the water inlet hose For models with straight hose:
1.Insert the dirt strainer (included in the accessories) into the threaded tap coupling and the coupling between the hose and the washing machine. 2.Carefully screw the hose connection onto the tap, preferably by hand. 3.Make sure there are no kinks in the hose. 4.Carefully screw the hose connection to the appliance inlet, preferably by hand. 5.Turn the tap on fully and check that the joints at the washing machine and the tap are watertight. If the hose is too short, replace it with a suitable length of pressure resistant hose (1000 kPa min, EN 50084 approved type). Check the hose regularly for brittleness and cracks and replace if necessary. The appliance can be connected without a non-return valve.
Connect the water drain hose
1.Unhook the drain hose from the right clip. Attention: do not unhook the left drain hose connection. 2.Connect the drain hose to the siphon or hook it over the edge of a sink by means of the �U� bend supplied. 3.Make sure there are no kinks in the hose. 4.Secure the hose so that it cannot fall down while the appliance is running. Small hand basins are not suitable. If the hose is to be inserted directly into the drain pipeline, the inside diameter of the pipe must be appropriate in relation to the diameter of the drain hose. If you need to add an extension, use a flexible hose of the same type. Secure the unions with screw-on hose clips. Max. drain hose length: 2.50 m Max. drain height: 90 cm Min.drain height: 60 cm
