Water connection
The flow pressure must amount to a minimum of 100 kPa and must
not exceed 1000 kPa. If the flow pressure is higher than 1000 kPa, a
pressure reducing valve must be used.
The machine must be connected to the water supply using the inlet
hoses provided.
 The connection points are subject to water supply pressure.
Turn on the stopcock slowly and check for leaks. Correct the posi-
tion of the seal and screw thread if appropriate.
Only connect the washing machine to the water supply with the hoses
supplied.
For the protection of drinking water, a non-return valve must be in-
stalled between the stopcock and the water connection of the wash-
ing machine. If the building's plumbing has been installed correctly,
the connections required for this (e.g. angle valve) will already have
this safety feature. Make sure that a non-return valve is fitted in the
plumbing.
When using a separate non-return valve, observe the following se-
quence:
1. Attach the non-return valve to the water connection.
2. Attach the water inlet hose to the non-return valve.
 Health risk and risk of damage due to contaminated incoming
water.
The quality of the incoming water must correspond to the drinking
water specification of the country in which the washing machine is
being operated.
Always connect the washing machine to the mains water supply.
For the cold water connection, one stopcock each with
a ¾" external thread is required.
The water inlet hose for cold water (blue stripes) is not intended to
be used with a hot water connection.
To minimise energy consumption during operation with hot water,
the washing machine should be connected to a suitable hot water
ring circuit if present.
So-called "transmission pipes" (single pipes to hot water generators)
can result in cooling down of the water remaining in the pipes if not
in constant use. More energy would then be consumed to heat the
suds up again.
Use the inlet hose supplied (red stripes) for the hot water connection.
