Optimum water pressure in the supply network: 100-1000 kPa (1-10 bar)

- Water flows at a rate of at least 8 l/min when the tap is turned on.

- If the water pressure is higher than this, a pressure reducing valve must be installed.

Height difference between the installation surface and the drain:

drainage into a siphon:

Caution: the convection point must be secured with the hose clamp provided, © 24-40 m.

Levelling

Intense noise, vibrations and "wandering" may be the result of incorrect levelling. All four appliance feet must be firmly on the ground.

Check the levelness of the washing machine with a spirit level and adjust if necessary. The washing machine must not rest against the side panels of the installation recess. The lock nuts of the front appliance feet must be screwed slightly against the housing.

Electrical connection

The washing machine must only be connected to an alternating current via a properly installed earthed socket. The mains voltage must correspond to the voltage specifications on the washing machine. -> Page 7: Technical data. Corrected load and required fuse -> Page 7; Technical data. Make sure that: - the mains plug fits the socket. - the cable cross-section is accurate. - the earthing system is properly installed. The mains cable may only be replaced by a qualified electrician (if required). Replacement mains cables are available from customer services. Do not use multiple plugs/couplings and/or extension leads. If a residual current circuit breaker is used, only use a type which displays this symbol: 2. Only this symbol guarantees compliance with the currently applicable regulations. Mains plug: - do not plug in or pull out of the socket with damp hands. - when removing the plug from the socket, pull the plug body only, not the cable. - never pull the plug out during operation.
