Connecting the drain hose
 
Connect the drain 
hose, without 
bending it, to a 
draining duct or a 
wall drain situated 
between 65 and 100 
cm from the floor;
The drain hose may 
be connected to 
an under-sink trap. 
Before connecting 
the drain hose from 
the machine ensure 
that any blanks or 
removable ends 
have been taken off 
the spigot. 
If it is placed over 
the edge of a basin 
or sink be sure 
the free end of the 
hose should not be 
underwater.
 
! We advise against the use of hose extensions; 
in case of absolute need, the extension must 
have the same diameter as the original hose 
and must not exceed 150 cm in length.
Ensure that if the drain hose is pushed into a 
standpipe, that the end does not go down more 
than 15cms (6 inches). If the hose is pushed 
down too far, this may cause the machine to self 
-syphon ie. continuously empty as it is filling.
Electric connection
Before plugging the appliance into the mains 
socket, make sure that:
• the socket is earthed and in compliance  
   with the applicable law;
• the socket is able to sustain the appliance’s  
   maximum power load indicated on the       
   Technical Data Plate fixed on the machine.
•  the supply voltage is included within the  
   values indicated on the Technical Data    
   Plate fixed on the machine.
•  the socket is compatible with the washing 
machine’s plug. If this is not the case, replace 
the socket or the plug.
Your appliance is now supplied with a 13 amp 
fused plug it can be plugged into a 13 amp 
socket for immediate use. Before using the 
appliance please read the instructions below.
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE 
EARTHED.
THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD  
BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED 
ELECTRICIAN.
Replacing the fuse:
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA 
approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be 
used, and the fuse cover re-fitted. If the fuse 
cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a 
replacement is obtained.
Replacement fuse covers:
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must 
be of the correct colour as indicated by 
the coloured marking or the colour that is 
embossed in words on the base of the plug. 
Replacements can be obtained directly from 
your nearest Service Depot.
Removing the plug:
If your appliance has a non-rewireable 
moulded plug and you should wish to re-route 
the mains cable through partitions, units etc., 
please ensure that either:
the plug is replaced by a fused 13 ampere 
rewireable plug bearing the BSI mark of approval. 
or:
the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 
amp cable outlet, controlled by a switch, (in 
compliance with BS 5733) which is accessible 
without moving the appliance.
Disposing of the plug:
Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, 
you make the pins unusable so that it cannot 
be accidentally inserted into a socket.
