INSTALLATION
Installation (Electrical Connection)
Your washing machine is set to 220-240V and 50Hz.
The mains cord of your washing machine is equipped with a
specic earthed plug. This plug should always be inserted to an
earthed socket of 13 amps. The rating of the fuse should be 13 amps.
NOTE: Operating your machine below the recommended
voltage will cause the life cycle of your appliance to be
reduced and its performance to be restricted.
Installation (Water Inlet Hose Connection)
Your machine may have either a single inlet (cold) or
double water inlets (cold/hot) based on its specications.
A white-capped hose should be connected to the cold
water inlet and a red-capped hose to a hot water inlet
(applicable for machines with double water inlets).
To eliminate water leakages in the connection points, 1
or 2 nuts are provided in the hose package (applicable for
machines with double water inlets). Fit these nuts to the
ends of new water inlet hoses on the tap end of the hose.
Connect the new water inlet hoses to a 3/4 “, threaded
inlet pipe.
Connect the white-elbow end of the water inlet hoses
to the white ltered water inlet valve on the rear side of
the machine and the red-elbow end to the red-ltered
one (applicable for machines with double water inlets).
Tighten plastic parts of the junctions using your hand. If
you are unsure of this process get the work done by a
qualied plumber.
Flow of water with pressure of 0.1-1 Mpa will allow
your machine to operate more efciently. (0,1 Mpa
pressure means that more than 8 litres of water will ow
per minute).
Ensure that the new water inlet hoses are not bent, broken, crushed or the wrong
size.
If your machine has a hot water connection, the temperature of the water inlet
should be maximum 70 Degrees Centigrade.
NOTE: Use only the new water inlet hose supplied with your machine while
making water inlet hose connections. Never use old, used or damaged water
inlet hoses.
