If the appliance is to stand on floors that vibrate, e. g. floors of wooden joists with deal boards: If possible, install the appliance in one corner of the room. 1. Screw a water-resistant wooden board (at least 15 mm thick) onto at least 2 of the floor joists. 2.
Electrical connection Details about the voltage, type of supply and the fuses required are to be found on the rating plate. The rating plate is next to the doorway. Connecting to the water supply Important! • This appliance must not be connected to the hot water system. • When connecting it, use only new hose kits. • Only connect the appliance to the drinking water supply. Rain water or water for industrial use may only be used if it fulfils the requirements of DIN1986 and DIN1988.
Important! Do not position the inlet hose vertically downwards. Position it to the right or the left as shown in the illustration. 2. Connect the hose with the straight connector to a water tap with an R ¾ (inch) screw thread. 3. To tighten or loosen the threaded hose fitting, only the metal nuts must be turned. When doing this, keep a firm hold on the housing of the safety valve with one hand, so that it does not turn at the same time.
1 Draining water into a wash basin/bath Important! – Small basins are not suitable. Water 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 appliance. – When draining into a wash basin or a bath, secure the drain hose with the supplied elbow to stop it slipping. Otherwise the water running out can force the hose out of the basin. – When pumping the water out, check that the water is running away fast enough.
