NOTE :
The water supply pressure required to
run the product is between 1 to 10 bars (0.1 – 1
MPa). It is necessary to have 10 – 80 liters of
water flowing from the fully open tap in one
minute to have your machine run smoothly.
Attach a pressure reducing valve if water
pressure is higher.
A
WARNING:
Models with a single water inlet
should not be connected to the hot water tap. In
such a case the laundry will get damaged or the
product will switch to protection mode and will
not operate.
WARNING:
Do not use old or used water inlet
hoses on the new product. It may cause stains on
your laundry.
1. Tighten all hose nuts by hand. Never use a tool
when tightening the nuts.
2. Open the taps completely after making the
hose connection to check for water leaks at the
connection points. If any leaks occur, turn off
the tap and remove the nut. Retighten the nut
carefully after checking the seal. To prevent water
leakages and damages caused by them, keep the
taps closed when the machine is not in use.

2.5 Connecting to the drain

• The end of the drain hose must be directly
connected to the wastewater drain or to the
washbasin.
A
CAUTION:
Your house will be flooded if the
hose comes out of its housing during water
discharge. Moreover, there is risk of scalding due
to high washing temperatures! To prevent such
situations and to ensure smooth water intake
and discharge of the machine, fix the end of the
discharge hose tightly so that it cannot come
out.
• The hose should be attached to a height of at least
40 cm, and 100 cm at most.
• In case the hose is elevated after laying it on the
floor level or close to the ground (less than 40 cm
above the ground), water discharge becomes more
difficult and the laundry may come out excessively
wet. Therefore, follow the heights described in the
figure.
• To prevent flowing of dirty water back into the
machine and to allow for easy discharge, do not
immerse the hose end into the dirty water or do
not drive it in the drain more than 15 cm. If it is too
long, cut it short.
• The end of the hose should not be bent, it should
not be stepped on and the hose must not be
pinched between the drain and the machine.
• If the length of the hose is too short, use it by
adding an original extension hose. Length of
the hose may not be longer than 3.2 m. To avoid
water leak failures, the connection between the
extension hose and the drain hose of the product
must be fitted well with an appropriate clamp as
not to come off and leak.
