If the water connection is made onto new pipes or onto pipes which
have not been used for a long time, it is advisable to run off a certain
amount of water before connecting the machine.
Screw this pipe onto the water inlet tap.
You can rotate the other end of the water inlet pipe at the machine end
in any direction. Unscrew the tightening ring slightly, turn the end of
the pipe as you wish and tighten the ring again firmly.
Water drainage
It is preferable to connect the drain pipe to a siphon. However, you
can put it directly in a sink or a basin, or even into a bath.
Only use original pipes as extensions (placed on the floor over a length
of not more than 3 m and at a height of not more than 1 m).
Water drained into a siphon
The end piece fitted on the end of the pipe
may be connected to any type of standard
siphon.
Use a clamping collar to keep the end piece in
position on the siphon.
Water drained into a sink
When the drain pipe is placed in a sink or a
wash basin, use the elbow supplied with the
washing machine to prevent it from slipping.
This pipe could be forced out of the sink
under the pressure of the water being drained.
Small sinks should be avoided !
You can avoid this problem by fixing the
elbow to the water tap or to the wall using the
orifice provided.
