a) Water inlet hose

The specific hoses that come with the

machine are connected to the water inlet

valves on the machine. Red labeled hose

is for hot water inlet and blue labeled hose

is for cold water inlet.

In order to prevent the water leakages that

may occur on the connection points, rub-

ber seals are placed on the hose or in the

package (4 pieces for the models with

double water inlets and 2 pieces for other

models). These gaskets should be used

for connections in both sides of the hose.

Gaskets on the machine side should fit in

the hose filter channel.

Since the connection points are under

water pressure, turn on the taps to the

maximum after the connection. Check if

there is any water leakage at the connec-

tion points. In order to prevent the water

leakages and the damages they may

cause, keep the taps closed when you are

not using the machine.

Minimum 1 bar and maximum 10 bars of

water flow from the tap is enough for your

machine to operate efficiently. (In practice,

1 bar means that more than 8 liters of wa-

ter per minute flows from a full open tap.)

Install the elbowed end of the hose to your

machine. Hand-tighten the nuts of the

hose, do not use a spanner

Models with double water inlets can be

used as a model with a single water inlet

by using a plug. Plug should be installed to

the hot water valve. A rubber gasket should

be used in order to prevent water leakage

from the connection point.

Do not connect the product with single wa-

ter inlet to the hot water tap. The product

may switch to the protection mode if the

temperature of the water connected to a

product with double water inlet through a Y

part and single water inlet is above 40°C.

a) Water drainage hose

Water drainage hose can be attached to

the side wall of a sink or bathtub. Hose

should not be bend. When the drainage

hose is hanged on a sink or bathtub, it can

be secured with a hose bracket so that it

will not fall.

The end of drainage hose can be

connected directly to the waste water

drainage hole or to the specific end that is

installed to the outlet elbow of the sink.

The hose should be installed to a height

of 40 cm minimum and 100 cm maximum.
