The washing machine is provided with safety devices preventing back-
contamination of the water supply and complies with local water
authority requirements.
This appliance is designed to be permanently plumbed into your home’s
water supply.
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.
Water Pressure
The appliance is designed to operate within the following water
pressure limits:
– minimum 1 bar (14.5 p. s. i.)
– maximum 10 bar (145 p. s. i.)
IMPORTANT!
• At more than 10 bar (145 p. s. i.): Install pressure-reducing valve.
• At less than 1 bar (14.5 p. s. i.): Unscrew the inlet hose from the appli-
ance at the inlet solenoid valve and remove the flow regulator (to do
this, remove the sieve with needle-nose pliers and remove rubber
washer behind the sieve). Replace sieve. Retain the washer for future
use.
