							EN9
3.		 Important:	Tighten	all	lock	nuts	up	
again.
Connecting to the water 
supply.
Important:
•		 The	water	supply	pressure	required	
to run the machine must be 1-10 
bar	(0,1	–	1,0	MPa).	Attach	a	
pressure-reducing valve if the water 
pressure is higher.
•		 Connect	the	special	hoses	supplied	
with the machine to the water intake 
valves on the machine. The hose 
bearing	the	“red”	sign	(90°C	max)	
is the hot water inlet and the hose 
bearing	the	“blue”	 sign	(25°C	 max)	is	
for the cold water inlet.
•	 If	you	are	going	to	use	your	double	
water-inlet machine as a single 
(cold)	water-inlet	unit,	you	must	
install the stopper*, supplied with 
your machine to the hot water valve.
  If you want to use both water inlets 
of the product, you can connect the 
hot water hose after removing the 
stopper and gasket group from the 
hot water valve.
  * Applies for the products supplied 
with a blind stopper group.
•	 Open	the	taps	completely	after	
making the hose connection to 
check if there is any water leakage 
at the connection points. Turn off 
the tap and remove the nut in case 
of any leakage. Retighten the nut 
carefully after checking the seal. 
To prevent any water leakage and 
any other damage to be caused by 
it, keep the taps closed when the 
machine is not in use.
•	 Models	with	a	single	water	inlet	
should not be connected to the 
hot water tap. Laundry may be 
damaged or the appliance may 
switch to protection mode and not 
work.
•	 If	you	are	going	to	use	your	double	
water-inlet machine as a single 
(cold)	water-inlet	unit,	you	must	
install the stopper*, supplied with 
your machine to the hot water valve.
 If you want to use both water inlets 
of the product, you can connect the 
hot water hose after removing the 
stopper and gasket group from the 
hot water valve.
* Applies for the products supplied with 
a blind stopper group. 
When returning the appliance to its 
place after maintenance or cleaning, 
care should be taken not to fold, 
squeeze or block the hoses.
Connecting to the drain
The water discharge hose can be 
attached to the edge of a washbasin or 
bathtub. The drain hose should be firmly 
fitted into the drain as to not loosen in 
its housing.
Important: 
						

							EN10
•	 The	end	of	the	drain	hose	can	
be directly connected to the 
wastewater drain or to the 
washbasin. The fitting must be 
secured in all types of connections. 
Your	house	may	be	flooded	if	the	
hose falls out of its housing during 
water discharging.
•	 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 wet. 
Therefore, the heights described in 
the figure should be followed.
•	 To	prevent	dirty	water	refilling	the	
machine, and to allow for easy 
discharge, the end of the hose 
must not be submerged in the drain 
water. The end of the hose must be 
able to take in air. The hose should 
be pushed into the drainage for 
more than 15 cm. If it is too long 
you may have it shortened.
•	 The	end	of	the	hose	should	not	be	
bent, it should not be stepped on 
and it must not be folded between 
the drain and the machine.
•	 The	length	of	the	hose	is	too	short,	
you may add an extension hose 
to the original section. The length 
of the hose must not be longer 
than 3.2 m after coming out of the 
machine. To avoid water leakage 
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. 
Electrical connection 
Connect the machine to an earthed 
outlet protected by a fuse of suitable 
capacity.
Important:
•	 Connection	should	comply	with	
national regulations.
•	 Power	cord	plug	must	be	within	
easy reach after installation.
•	 The	voltage	and	the	allowed	fuse	
protection are specified in the 
section	“Technical	Specifications”.
•	 The	specified	voltage	must	be	equal	
to your mains voltage.
•	 Connection	via	extension	cords	or	
multi-plugs should not be made.
B A damaged power cable must be 
replaced by a qualified electrician.
B The appliance must not be operated 
unless it is repaired! There is the risk 
of electric shock!
Destroying the packaging 
material
Packaging	material	can	be	dangerous	to	
children.	Keep	the	packaging	materials	
out of reach of children or dispose 
them by classifying according to 
waste directives. Do not dispose them 
together with normal domestic waste.
Packaging	materials	of	your	machine	are	
manufactured from recyclable materials.
Disposing of the old machine
Dispose of your old appliance in an 
environmental friendly manner.
•	 You	may	refer	to	your	local	agent	or	
solid waste collection center in your 
municipality to learn how to dispose 
of your machine.  
Before disposing of your old washing 
machine, cut off the mains plug and 
make the door lock unusable.
