Draining
Drain hose placement in a stand pipe or tub
1 To guide the drain hose over the tub or
standpipe the hose guide must be fitted to
the drain hose. The height of the standpipe
or tub should be between 800 – 1200mm.
2 Secure the hose guide so it cannot become
dislodged from the standpipe or tub.
z
If the drain hose is placed on the ground or
if the standpipe or tub is less than 800mm
high, the washing machine will continuously
drain while being filled (siphon).
z
Regularly check that your standpipe or tub
is free from lint or other obstructions, which
may affect how your machine works or may
cause flooding.
Attaching drain hose to spigot
1 Guide drain hose through hose guide.
2 Secure hose guide to back wall of cupboard
using a screw. The height of the drain
hose should be between 500 – 800mm
from ground level.
3 Attach drain hose to spigot and secure using
a hose clamp ensuring the blanking insert is
cleared from spigot.
4 Check for leaks.
z
The drain hose should be checked from time
to time and replaced if any damage (egwear,
cuts, bulges, kinks, leaks, etc) is found. Do
not bend the drain hose sharply, as this may
cause it to split.
z
In multi-storey apartments or any upper floor,
the machine should be installed on a floor
equipped with a drain.

Draining must comply with local by-laws.
