Water drainage
The maximum permitted difference between the height of the surface 
on which the appliance is installed and the water outlet is 1 metre.
Only original hoses may be used to extend hoses. (A maximum of 3 m 
laid on the floor and then 80 cm vertically). The Customer Care Depart-
ment stocks outlet hoses of different lengths.
Draining water into a sink outlet
Secure the outlet/sink outlet joint 
with a hose band clip (available from 
your dealer). 
Draining water into a wash basin/bath
1 Important! 
– Small basins are not suitable. Wa-
ter may overflow. 
– The end of the drain hose must 
not be in the water that has been 
pumped out. Otherwise water 
could be sucked back into the ap-
pliance.
– When draining into a wash basin 
or a bath, secure the drain hose 
with the supplied elbow to stop it 
slipping. Otherwise the water run-
ning out can force the hose out of 
the basin. 
– When pumping the water out, 
check that the water is running 
away fast enough.
Pumping heights over 1 m
The washing machine’s drain pump is able to pump water to a height of 
1meter, calculated from the surface on which the appliance is installed. 
Warning! If pumping height is over 1 metre, malfunctions and damage 
to the appliance may arise.
For pumping heights over 1metre a conversion kit can be obtained. 
Please contact the Customer Care Department.
