■

Keep the total length of the feed water pipe tube within 8 m and be careful for the tube not be bent. If the tube is 8 m or longer it may cause trouble in water feed owing to the drain water pressure.

■

Install the feed water pipe tube at a place free from heat.

■

Connect to potable water supply only.

■

Refer to instructions with water filter kit for installation.
