When hose connection is completed,
check whether there is leak problems at the
connection points by opening the taps fully. If
any leaks occur, turn off the tap remove the
nut. Retighten the nut carefully after checking
the seal. In order to prevent the water leaks

waste water drain, lavatory or bathtub.

A

• Your drain 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! In order to prevent such
situations and make sure that the machine
performs water intake and discharge
processes without any problem, fix the
drain hose securely.

CAUTION!

• In case the drain 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 the waste water to go back
into the machine again and to ensure easy
drainage, do not immerse the end of the
hose into the waste water or do not insert
it into the drain for 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.
