Water supply
CAUTION
The washing machine must only be operated
with cold and hot (max. 140 °F // 60 °C) tap
water. Do not connect the appliance to the mixer
tap of an unpressurized hotĆwater boiler.
If in any doubt, have the water connection installed
by an authorized technician.
The water supply hoses must not be:
- Bent or squashed.
- Modified or cut (stability can no longer be guarĆ
anteed).
Plastic threads must only be tightened by hand.
Do not remove the strainers from the water supply
hoses.
Observe the water pressure in the supply network:
- The water pressure should be between 14.5 to
145 p.s.i. (1 to 10 bars) (when the tap is turned
on, at least 2.2 U. S. gallons (8 liters) of water
are discharged per minute).
- A pressure reducing valve must be installed if
the maximum water pressure is exceeded.
CAUTION
To prevent against water damage, the hot and
cold water valves should be accessible when the
washer is in place and should always be turned
off when the washer is not in use.
When the washer is being installed in a new
building, or a building in which the plumbing sysĆ
tem was installed or upgraded recently, the lines
must be flushed prior to installing the washer.
This must be done to clear the lines of any sand,
dirt or residue that may still be in the lines.
