Installation
Water discharge
These three alternatives are possible for the dis-
charge hose:
Over the top edge of a washtub:
If you intend the drain hose from the machine to
empty into a sink, make sure that the hose will not
move when the machine is emptying. The hose can
be fixed to the wall on a hook or tied to a tap with
string (Fig. 1).
Directly into a waste pipe with a trap:
The discharge pipe can be connected directly into
the pipe (e.g. one beneath a washtub or kitchen
sink), above the water trap. The discharge hose
must be arranged so that some part of its length is
routed up to a level corresponding to the top edge
of the tub and fixed in place there (Fig. 2).
Directly into a wall standpipe:
This standpipe should be vertical. The height above
the floor should be between 450 and 800 mm.
There must be an air gap around and below the end
of the discharge hose. This means that the internal
diameter of the standpipe must be greater than the
outer diameter of the hose (Fig. 3).
The hose must not be sticked into the standpipe more
than 50 mm and it has to be fixed in this position
with help of the elbow supplied.
The discharge hose can be extended up to total
3,5 m. For the extension piece use a hose with an
internal diameter at least as large as that of the
machine's own hose. Use a suitable hose connector.
The hose should always be routed at floor level,
rising up only where it meets the waste pipe (Fig. 4).
Power supply
The washing machine is supplied with a lead and
electrical plug for connection to a 240 V, 10 A
earthed wall socket. If the machine is installed in a
"wet area" (bathroom, laundry) but without fixed
wiring to the electrical supply, an earth leakage
circuit breaker (or RCD) must be used.
Before any work is carried out on the
machine, it must be isolated from the
electric mains supply, for example by
removing the plug from the wall socket.
Permanent electrical installation must be
carried out by an authorised electrician.
