Electrical connection
Details of the mains voltage, current
type and required fuses can be
found on the rating plate. The ra-
ting plate is located at the top
above the filling door.
For permanent electrical connection
within the electrical circuit, provi-
sions must be made which allow for electrical disconnection of the ap-
pliance from the mains with a contact opening of at least 3 mm at all
poles. Suitable devices include circuit breakers, fuses (threaded fuses
must be entirely removed from the socket), ground fault circuit inter-
rupters and contactors. Permanent connection may only be carried out
by an authorised electrician.

Water connection
3
The washing machine has safety features which prevent back-contami-
nation of the drinking water and which conform to the national regu-
lations of the water authorities (e.g. for Germany: DVGW guidelines).
This means that additional protective measures in the installation are
not necessary.
Important!
Units for connecting to cold water must not be connected to hot wa-
ter.
Use only new hose sets for the connection.
Permissible water pressure
The water pressure must be at least 1 bar (= 10 N/cm
2
= 0.1 Mpa), max-
imum 10 bar = 100 N/cm
2
= 1 Mpa).
If more than 10 bar: Connect a pressure-reduction valve upstream.
If less than 1 bar: Unscrew the inlet hose on the unit side at the sole-
noid intake valve and remove the flow regulator (to do this, remove
the filter with pointed pliers and take out the rubber washer behind).
Replace the filter.
