Connecting Water Inlet; Drainage; Connecting The Drain Hose - Ariston ARWL 129 Manuel D'utilisation

Connecting Water Inlet

If the water pipes you will be connecting to are new or
unused, run the water until clear to remove any debris that
could clog the water valve screens or valves before con-
necting the machine. NOTE: Supply shut-off valves should
be easily accessible.
Important:
Water pressure MUST range wi-
!
thin the values indicated on the "Technical Data"
chart.
1. Screw the cold water fill
hose (C blue connector) onto
the cold water supply until
tight.
2. turn on the cold water
supply and check for leaks,
tighten if necessary.
3. Screw the hot water fill
hose (H red connector) onto
the hot water supply until tight.
4. Turn on the hot water supply and check for leaks,
tighten if necessary.
Important:
Do not use excessive force. Da-
!
mage to the couplings can result. The couplings
should be tightened by hand; a tool should only
be used if a leak occurs.

Drainage

• Standpipe Diameter/Capacity - Needs a 1 ¼"
minimum diameter standpipe with a minimum carry-away
capacity of 7 gallons per minute.
• Top of Standpipe - Must be between 25" - 34" high
from the bottom of the machine.
• Outlet End of Drain Hose (provided with the unit)
- Must be at least 20" above the bottom of the washer-
dryer. An air break must be available at the standpipe to
avoid siphoning. No more than 6" of the drain hose should
be inserted into the drain pipe to prevent siphoning.

Connecting the drain hose

It is possible for the water to be discharged into a sink,
standpipe or drainpipe, but an air break must be available
at a min. 20" height to prevent the machine from siphoning
(Fig. 6).
Standpipe Drain System - Installations require a minimum
1 ¼" (3.2 cm) diameter standpipe with a minimum carry
away capacity of 7 gallons (26 liters) per minute.
Wall or Floor Standpipe Drain System - The top of the
standpipe must be between 25" (62 cm) - 34" (86 cm)
from the bottom of the washer (Fig. 4).

Sink Drainpipe System
system must be above the trap (Fig. 5). When routing the
drain hose through cabinets or walls, use a protective ma-
terial such as electrical or duct tape to cover sharp edges
that could damage the drain hose. Use a suitable clamp
to secure the drain hose to the "Y" branch or the disposer.
With a sink drainpipe system, you may connect directly:
1) to a disposer by following the manufacturers attachment
method.
2) directly to a "Y" branch tail piece (available at most
hardware stores).
3) Through the floor to a separate trap. The trap must be
vented to prevent siphoning. To provide proper venting,
install an Air Gap Kit (available at most hardware stores).
4) To the to the faucet using a Faucet Adapter Kit (available
separately).
• Use a U-Clamp (provided in your accessories packet)
or suitable item to secure the outlet end of the drain hose
(pre-installed on the back of your machine).
