Connecting to the water
supply.
Important:
• The water supply pressure required
to run the machine must be 1-10
bar (0,1 – 1 MPa). (Practically, it is
necessary to have 10 – 80 liters
of water flowing from the tap in
one minute to have your machine
run smoothly.) Attach a pressure-
reducing valve if the water pressure is
higher.
• Connect the special hose supplied
with the machine to the water intake
valves on the machine.
• In order to prevent water leakage that
may occur at the connection points,
there are rubber seals (4 seals for the
models with double water inlet and
2 seals for other models) attached
to the hoses. These seals should
be used at the tap and machine
connection ends of the hoses. The
plain end of the hose fitted with a filter
must be attached to the tap and the
elbowed end must be attached to the
machine. Tighten the nuts of the hose
well by hand; never use wrenches to
tighten the nuts.
• Open the taps completely after
making the hose connection to check
if there is any water leakage at the
connection points. Turn off the tap
and remove the nut in case of any
leakage. Retighten the nut carefully
after checking the seal. To prevent
any water leakage and any other
damage to be caused by it, keep the
taps closed when the machine is not
in use.
• Models with a single water inlet
should not be connected to the hot
water tap. Laundry may be damaged
or the appliance may switch to
protection mode and not work.
When returning the appliance to its
place after maintenance or cleaning,
care should be taken not to fold,
squeeze or block the hoses.
Connecting to the drain
The water discharge hose can be
attached to the edge of a washbasin
or waste water system. The drain hose
should be firmly fitted into the drain as
to not loosen in its housing.
Important:
• The end of the drain hose can be
directly connected to the wastewater
drain or to the washbasin. The
fitting must be secured in all types
of connections. Your house may
be flooded if the hose falls out of its
housing during water discharging.
• The hose should be attached to a
height of at least 40 cm, and 100 cm
at most.
• In case the hose is elevated
after laying it on the floor level or
close to the ground (less than
40 cm above the ground), water
discharge becomes more difficult
and the laundry may come out wet.
Therefore, the heights described in
the figure should be followed.
• To prevent dirty water refilling the
