Installation instructions
Water supply
This clothes washer should be plumbed into both a hot and cold water supply otherwise some
cycles may not function correctly.
Your hot water should not exceed 65˚C, and your cold water should not exceed 35˚C.
Temperatures above these may cause a fault or cause damage to the machine.
If you have an uncontrolled water-heating source (eg a wet back or solar heating) you should
have a tempering device fitted. This will ensure the hot water temperature remains within
safe limits. For the most suitable type of tempering device we recommend you contact a local
plumber or plumbing supply merchant.
Inlet Water Static Pressure of between 3 psi (20 kPa) and 150 psi (1 MPa) is required.
(If using a header tank then the top of the header tank must be at least 2 metres above the top
of your clothes washer).
Minimum flow rate from the tap supplying the clothes washer should be greater than
6 litres/min (assumes 12.7 mm (⁄ inch) diameter pipes).
Minimum height of taps to clear the top of the machine is 1150 mm.
Inlet hoses
Note:
New hose sets provided with the washer shall be used to
connect the washer to the water mains.
Old hose sets should not be re-used.
1
Connect the straight ends of the inlet hoses to the taps
(there are washers fitted in both ends). Connect the red
connector hose to hot, and white connector hose to cold
(if your hoses are colour-coded).
2
Connect the elbow ends of the inlet hoses to the machine
inlet valves. Inlet valves are marked on the back of the
machine. Ensure the hot valve is connected to the hot tap
and the cold valve is connected to the cold tap.
H = Hot C = Cold
Inlet hose replacement
We recommend replacing the inlet hoses every 5 years. Hoses should be checked from time to
time and replaced if any wear, cuts, bulges, kinks or leaks are found.
Electrical
This appliance must be supplied with a 230 V – 240 V, 50 Hz, sinusoidal, 450 W electrical supply.
