longer hose specially designed for this type
of use.
Important! Before connecting up the
machine to new pipework or to pipework
that has not been used for some time, run
off a reasonable amount of water to flush
out any debris that may have collected in
the pipes.
WATER DRAINAGE
The end of the drain hose can be posi-
tioned 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 ma-
chine 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 diam-
eter 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.

of the appliance door.

tion can take the maximum load required,
also taking into account any other applian-
ces in use.
