Once connected the inlet hose to the water tap, turn the tap on and check that there are no leaks. Inlet water supply • Cold water pressure: 800 kPa max - 50 kPa min. • Water flow rate 10 L / minute min. • If cold water pressure is in excess of 800 kPa, a pressure reducing valve should be used. Check for leaks.
Water connection 31 In order to pass the safety valve through the kitchen cabinets, an opening of at least 45 mm x 90 mm is needed. Water drain hose Use the supplied hose clamp to connect the water drain hose to the sink.

If you do not remove the membrane, remaining food can cause a blockage in the drain hose spigot. The appliance has a security feature to prevent dirty water going back into the appliance. If, the spigot of the sink has a 'non-return valve', this valve can cause the appliance to drain incorrectly. Remove the non-return valve.
