If you intend to drain the hose from the
machine 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.
Special conditions
If the floor is carpeted or covered with
crumbly or soft material, insert a rigid
support base under the feet to prevent
noise, vibration or displacement. The
base should protrude a few
centimetres beyond the edges of the
machine.
Warning !
The machine should NOT be placed on
deep pile carpeting.

In the interest of the environment
Washing machines should be connect-
ed to the FOUL drainage system, the
water will then be taken to a sewage
works for treatment before being dis-
charged safely into a river.
It is essential that these appliances are
not connected to the surface water
drainage system as this water is dis-
charged directly into a river or stream
and may cause pollution.
If you require any further advice please
contact your local water authority.
