If only a cold water supply is available, connect the
two hoses to a cold water outlet by means of a «Y»
connection piece.
Installation should comply with local water authority
and building regulations’ requirements.
The appliance must be given a separate cold water
supply and not be connected to a mixer tap, a
single outlet water heater or a booster pump. A
minimum water pressure of 0.48 bar is required for
safe operation of the appliance.
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
1
/
2
ft) between the appliance’s inlet and the
bottom of the water storage tank.
There will be sufficient pressure for the hot water
supply, providing there is a minimun height of 2.74
metres (9 ft) between the bottom of the cold water
storage tank and the bottom of the hot water
cylinder.
Set the hoses correctly by loosening the ring nuts.
After positioning the inlet hoses, be sure to tighten
the ring nuts again to prevent leaks.
Water drainage
This appliance is designed to be permanently
plumbed into your home's water supply and
drainage system.
The appliance drain hose should hook into a
standpipe, the hook in the drain hose is formed
using the plastic “U-Piece” supplied.

The standpipe should have an internal diameter of
approximately 38mm (see diagram) thus ensuring
there is an air break between the drain hose and
standpipe.
When discharging into a standpipe ensure that the
top of the curve in the hose end is no more than
90cm (35.4'') and no less than 60cm (23.6'') above
floor level. The upright standpipe should have a
minimum length of 30cm (12'') from the bottom of
the elbow to the top of the pipe (see diagram).
Make sure that it is designed in such a way, that the
end of the drain hose cannot be covered with water.
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 Force
Centre.
The joining piece must have an internal diameter of
18mm.
If you intend the drain hose to empty into a sink,
make sure that the sink is empty and the plug hole
is not blocked. Use the plastic “U-Piece” supplied.
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.
