2.4 Connecting water supply
C
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.

NOTE :
If you are going to use the double water-inlet
product as a single
install the supplied stopper to the hot water valve before
operating the product. (Applies for the products supplied
with a blind stopper group.)
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. Connect the special hoses supplied with the product to
the water inlets on the product. Red hose (left) (max. 90
ºC) is for hot water inlet, blue hose (right) (max. 25 ºC) is
for cold water inlet.
A
CAUTION:
Ensure that the cold and hot water
connections are made correctly when installing the
product. Otherwise, your laundry will come out hot at the
end of the washing process and wear out.
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.
