Water supply

Your washing machine is fitted with a

high quality pressure hose Va inch bore

with a y* inch BSP screw connector for
connection to a water tap with male

thread. The necessajrv washers are en
closed. (Please do : use any other
washers as they may prove to be of an
unsatisfactory quality). Hand tightening
of the nut is sufficient ~ be very careful
when using tools.
Please do not connect the machine to a
hot water supply, as this has an adverse
effect on the washing performance of the
machine.

Notes for plumber
Minimum water pressure: about 1 bar
excess pressure (= 1 atu, = 1 kp/cm^,

“ ^>'cm2 = 15 p.s.i.)

Mv lum permissible water pressure
about 10 bar. Where the supply pressure
exceeds 10 bar, it is necessary to fit a
pr jre relief valve type AD 723 (Part

Nuijioer E 612 896 723).

Sf ’d you require a longer water supply

hoovi than that provided, please use only a
continuous high-pressure hose (at least
60 bar) of suitable length. Do not extend
the existing hose.

On no account must you use cheap gar

den hose or similar hose. Please ensure

that suitable clamps are used for at

taching the hose to the connector fitting.

Please ensure that you comply with any

drinking water regulations of your local

water board.

At the completion of each wash pro

gramme, please close the tap.

Should you wish to soak laundry for a

lop^'^^r period, we recommend that you

cl the tap after the temperature has

been reached (at the end of the drum

movement).

S! !d you discover some residual water

in vour machine, after unpacking, please

df worry. It does not mean that the

ma^nine has been used before, it is due

to the very thorough quality control that

the machine undergoes in our factory.

through the drain hose fitted at the back
of the machine.

The drain hose (i/D 19 mm max.) is bent at
the end for hooking over a sink edge or si
milar receptacle. Please secure this bent
end in such a way that it cannot siip off
(especialiy where the sink or basin edge
is very wide).

If permanent connection to a siphon is re
quired, you can shohen the drain hose as
necessary (in this case the hose must be
ventilated. The necessary ventilating
valve or breather Is available from the
AEG Service Department).

When installing the machine In a room
with floor drainage (i. e. a gulley in a

laundry room), you can place the hose
directly onto the floor after cutting off the
bent part, which should be cut at an
angle. The hose has been routed inside
the machine in such a way that no water
can drain off unintentionally when the

hose is placed on the floor.
If necessary (e.g. in the case of a power

failure) the water can be drained from the
machine by carefully opening the
drainage filter. The laundry cah then be
removed from the drum as normal.

Preparing the laundry

Water drainage

To drain the machine of all soap and rinse
water, the machine is fitted with a pump,
which Is controlled by the programme. It

Preparation of your laundry prior to com
mencing washing, can be of immense be
nefit to you. Take a little time and sort
your laundry according to colour and type
of fabric. Please check the manufacturers
