Connecting water supply
C
The water supply pressure required
to run the product is between 1 to 10 bars (0.1 – 10 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.
C
If you are going to use the double
water-inlet product as a single (cold) water-inlet unit, you must install the supplied stopper to the hot water valve before operating the product.
(Applies for the products supplied
with a blind stopper group.)
C
If you want to use both water inlets
of the product, 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.)
A
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.
A
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
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.
2. Tighten all hose nuts by hand. Never use a wrench when tightening the nuts.
3. 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.
Connecting to the drain
The end of the drain hose must be
directly connected to the wastewater drain or to the washbasin.
A
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.
10
EN
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 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.
Adjusting the feet
A
