If it is too short and you do not wish to
move the tap, you will have to
purchase a new, longer hose specially
designed for this type of use.
Note !
Installation should comply with
local water authority and building
regulations’ requirements.
The appliance must be connected
to a cold water supply.
A minimum water pressure of 0.05
MPa (0.5 bar) is required for safe

If you cannot make the cold water
connection direct from the rising mains,
you may be able to operate the
appliance from your cold water storage
system.
There should be a minimum distance
of 5.02m (16.5 ft) between the
appliance’s inlet and the bottom of the

Water drainage
The end of the drain hose can be
positioned in three ways:
Hooked over the edge of a sink
using the plastic hose guide
supplied with the machine. In this
case, make sure the end cannot come
unhooked when the machine is
emptying. This could be done by tying it
to the tap with a piece of string or
attaching it to the wall.
In a sink drain pipe branch. This
branch must be above the trap so that
the bend is at least 60 cm above the
ground.
Directly into a drain pipe at a
height of not less than 60 cm and not
more than 90 cm. The end of the drain
hose must always be ventilated, i.e.
the inside diameter of the drain pipe
must be larger than the outside diameter
of the drain hose.
The drain hose must not be kinked.
The drain hose may be extended to a
maximum of 4 metres. An additional
drain hose and joining piece is available
from your local Service Centre.
