Electrical connection
• Your washer-dryer is adjusted for 220-240V and 60Hz.
• The mains cord of your machine is equipped
with a specific grounded plug.
• The mains plug should always be inserted to
a grounded receptacle of 10 amperes. The fuse
current value of the power line connected to this plug should also
be 10 amperes.
• If you don’t have such a receptacle and fuse conforming with
this, please have it done by a qualified electrician.
• We do not take responsibility for damages that occur due to
ungrounded usage.
Note: Operating your machine under low voltage will cause the
life cycle of your machine to be reduced and its performance to
be restricted.
26
EN
• Operate your machine with cold water
only.
• Use only the new water inlet hoses
given with your machine or purchased
through authorized dealers.
