Cold-water con-
nection
The washing machine can either be hard-wired or connected via a
plug and socket that complies with national codes and regulations.
For a hard-wired connection an all-pole isolation device must be in-
stalled on site.
For hard-wired machines connection should be made via a suitable
switch with all-pole isolation which, when in the off position, ensures
a 1/8" (3 mm) gap between all open contacts. These include circuit
breakers, fuses and relays.
If the power supply cannot be permanently disconnected, the isolator
switch (including plug and socket) must be safeguarded against be-
ing switched on either unintentionally or without authorization.
Tip: We recommend connection to the power supply via a suitable
plug and socket which must be easily accessible for servicing and
maintenance work after the machine has been installed.
If it is necessary to install a residual current device (RCD) in accor-
dance with local regulations, a type B residual current device (sensi-
tive to universal current) must be used.
An existing type A residual current device (RCD) must be exchanged
for a type B RCD.
Equipotential bonding must be in accordance with all national and
local regulations.
Accessories for equipotential bonding are not supplied and need to
be ordered separately.
Water connection
The washing machine must be connected to a water supply system
in accordance with local and national safety regulations. It can be
connected to the water supply without a non-return valve, if national
standards permit.
The flow pressure must amount to a minimum of 100 kPa (14.5 psi)
and must not exceed an overpressure of 1,000 kPa (145 psi). If the
flow pressure is higher than 1,000 kPa (145 psi), a pressure reducing
valve must be used.
The machine must be connected to the water connection using the
water inlet hoses provided.
The connection points are subject to water connection pres-
sure.
Turn on the water supplies slowly and check for leaks. Correct the
position of the seal and screw thread if appropriate.
For the cold-water connection one shut-off valve each with a
¾" external thread is required. A connector (Y-piece) can be used if
required to connect 2 water inlet hoses with a ¾" screw thread to a
single faucet with a 1" male thread.
