2.Loosen or tighten the feet to adjust the level.

WARNING!

Do not put cardboard, wood or equivalent materials below the appliance feet to adjust the level.

The appliance must be level and stable.

ENGLISH 9

A correct adjustment of the appliance level prevents the vibration, noise and the movement of the appliance when in operation.

3.3 The inlet hose

1.Connect the water inlet hose to the back of the appliance.

2.Position it toward left or right depending on the position of the water tap.

45O

Make sure that the inlet hose is not in vertical position.

3.If necessary, loose the ring nut to set it in the correct position.

4.Connect the water inlet hose to the cold water tap with 3/4" thread.

CAUTION!

Make sure that there are no leaks from the couplings.

Do not use an extension hose if the inlet hose is too short. Contact the service centre for the replacement of the inlet hose.

3.4 Water-stop device

The inlet hose has a water stop device. This device prevents water leaks in the hose because of its natural ageing.

The red sector in the window «A» shows this fault.

If this occurs, close the water tap and contact the authorized service centre to replace the hose.

3.5 Water drainage

The drain hose should stay at a height of not less than 60 cm and not more than 100 cm.

You can extend the drain hose to maximum 400 cm. Contact the authorized service centre for the other drain hose and the extension.

10 www.aeg.com

It is possible to connect the drain hose in different ways:

1.Make a U shape with the drain hose and put it around the plastic hose guide.

2.On the edge of a sink - Fasten the guide to the water tap or to the wall.

Make sure that the plastic guide cannot move when the appliance drains.

Make sure that the drain hose end is not immersed in the water. There may be a return of dirty water into the appliance.

3.To a stand pipe with vent-hole - Insert the drain hose directly into a drain pipe. Refer to the illustration.

The end of the drain hose must always be ventilated , i.e. the inner diameter of the drain pipe (min. 38 mm - min. 1.5") must be larger than the external diameter of the drain hose.

4.If the end of the drain hose looks like this (see the picture), you can push it directly into the stand pipe.

5.Without the plastic hose guide, to a sink spigot - Put the drain hose in the spigot and tighten it with a clamp. Refer to the illustration.

Make sure that the drain hose makes a loop to prevent particles going into the appliance from the sink.

6.Position the hose directly to a builtin drain pipe in the room wall and tighten it with a clamp.
