Connect the water inlet hose

For models with straight hose "A"

1.Insert the dirt strainer (already premounted on the hose end or

included in the accessories) into the threaded tap coupling.

2.Carefully screw the hose connection onto the tap preferably by

hand.

3.Make sure there are no kinks in the hose.

4.Check water-tightness of tap and appliance connections by

turning the tap completely on.

If the hose is too short, replace it with a suitable length of

pressure resistant hose (1000 kPa min, EN 50084 approved type).

Periodically check the hose for brittleness and cracks and replace

if necessary.

The appliance can be connected without an anti-backpressure

valve.

For models with Water Stop hose "B"

If the flexible hose is damaged, unplug the appliance from the

mains immediately.

1.Screw the threaded connector with the filter inserted onto the

tap.

2.Check water-tightness of tap and appliance connections by

turning the tap completely on.

If the hose is too short, replace it with a 3 m Water Stop hose

(available from After-Sales Service or from your dealer). This

operation must be carried out exclusively by a licensed

electrician.

The appliance must not be connected to the mixing tap of a non-

pressurized water heater.

The inlet hose and the plastic enclosure at the tap connection

contain electrical components. Do not cut the hose and do not

immerse the plastic enclosure in water.

Connect the water drain hose

Drain hose

• Drain hose connection to water outlet.

1.Unhook the drain hose from the left clip;

see arrow (A).

Important:

Do NOT loosen the drain hose connection;

see arrow (B), otherwise there is the risk of leakage (danger of

scalding with hot water) and the normal filling and draining

functions of the machine cannot be guaranteed.

2.Fit the drain hose either to the siphon or hook it over the edge

of a sink or bath tub with the "U" bend. Small hand basins are

not suitable.

3.Minimum drain height: 60 cm.

Maximum U-bend drain height: 90 cm.

4.If you need to add an extension, use a flexible hose of the same

type and secure the union with screw-on hose clips. Maximum

overall drain hose length 2.5 m.

Important:

• Make sure that there are no kinks in the drain hose run.

• Take precautions against it falling while the appliance is

running.
