Plumbing In
Your new washing machine has been designed to be
permanently plumbed in to your home’s water supply
and drainage system. However, if this is not possible, it
may be connected to a suitable existing tap with the
drain hose discharging into a sink.
The appliance has an inlet hose, with female 3/4” BSP
thread connector. If this connection is not compatible
with the plumbing of the existing installation, a variety
of connectors are available from good hardware stores
and plumbers merchants to suit most domestic
plumbing. Any alteration to your existing plumbing
must be carried out by a competent person, or
qualified plumber.
Water inlet
An inlet hose is supplied and can been found inside the
machine drum.
Do not use the hose from your previous
machine to connect to the water supply.
1. Open the porthole and extract the inlet hose .
2. Connect the hose with the angled connection to the
machine.
Important!
Do not place the inlet hose downwards. Angle
the hose to the left or right depending on the
position of your water tap.
3. Set the hose correctly by loosening the ring nut.
After positioning the inlet hose, be sure to tighten
the ring nut again to prevent leaks.
4. Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4” thread.
Always use the hose supplied with the appliance.
