Using the appliance
Connection to the water supply
NOTE:
The water pressure required to operate the machine must be between 1 and 10 bar (0.1 -
1 MPa). You need between 10 and 80 litres of water to come from the tap when fully opened
within one minute for your machine to function correctly. Attach a pressure reducing valve if
the water pressure is too high.
WARNING:
Single inlet models should not be connected to the hot water tap. This type
of connection would damage the laundry and the machine would go into safety mode and
would not work.
WARNING:
Do not use pre-used water hoses on your new product. They could stain
your laundry.
1. Tighten the nuts (at the water supply and at the machine supply) of the hose by hand.
Never use a tool to tighten these nuts.
2. Once the hose is completely connected, check for leaks at the connection points by
opening the taps fully. If you notice any leaks, turn off the valve and remove the nut. Tighten
the nut carefully after checking the seal. To prevent water leakage and water damage, keep
the taps closed when not in use.

Using the appliance
Connecting the drain hose
• Attach the end of the drain hose directly to the drainage outlet, connect it to the toilet or
bathtub.
WARNING:
If the drain hose comes out during draining, your home will be flooded.
There is also a risk of getting burnt due to the high washing temperatures! To prevent
this from happening and to ensure that the water inlet and drainage are working properly,
securely fasten the drain hose.
• Place the end of the drain hose at a minimum height of 40cm and a maximum height of
100cm.
• If the end of the drain hose is laid at or near floor level (less than 40cm above the floor), it
will be more difficult to drain the water and the laundry may get very wet. For this reason,
you must use the heights shown in the diagram.
• To prevent wastewater from re-entering the machine and to ensure optimum drainage,
ensure that the end of the hose is not immersed in waste water or that more than 15cm of
the hose is inserted into the drainage outlet. If the hose is too long, cut it.
• The end of the hose must not be kinked, trampled or bent between the outlet and the
machine.
• If the length of the hose is too short, you can add a hose extension from the same brand.
The length of the pipe may not exceed 3.2m. To avoid any malfunction caused by a water leak,
the connection between the extension and the drain hose must be properly installed with a
suitable flange to prevent any water from escaping.
