built-in or freestanding unit. Place the machine
on a rm surface with easy access to the plug.
A. Built-in
The washing machine can be installed under
a counter top with a working height of 850-900
mm. Leavea 5 cm space around the entire
machine, including between the rear edge of the
top cover and the wall behind it.
B. Freestanding

Connection to water supply
Water connection should be carried out by an
appropriately qualied person. Connect the
machine using the accompanying supply hose.
Water pressure should be 0.1–1MPa (approx.
1–10kp/cm
2
; 10–100N/cm
2
). There should be a
stopcock on the water pipe.
If the pipes are newly installed, it may be wise
to ush them through so that any dirt is washed
away. Otherwise, dirt can clog the lter in the
machine’s water intake and cut o cut o or
reduce water ow to the machine. Check for
leaks.
Use only the supply hose supplied with the
machine.
Do not re-use old hoses or other loose supply
hoses.
Drainage connection
The machine is supplied with a drainage hose
attached, which must be connected to a drain.
See the examples below. The height must be
600-900 mm above oor level.
The lower position (600 mm) is always preferable.
Ensure that the drainage hose has no kinks.
