Hot water connection*
The hot water temperature must not ex-
ceed 70°C (60 °C in the UK).
To minimise energy consumption during
operation with hot water, the washing
machine should be connected to a suit-
able hot water ring circuit. So-called
“transmission pipes” (single pipes to
hot water generators) can result in any
water remaining in the pipes cooling
down if not in constant use. More en-
ergy would then be consumed to heat
the liquid up again.
The same connection requirements as
for cold water also apply to hot water.
The inlet hose is connected to the stop-
cock.
The washing machine cannot only be
connected to a hot water connection.
* Some machine versions do not come
with a hot water hose.
Switching to hot water operation
If the washing machine is due to be
connected to a hot water point, you can
configure the settings Main wash water,
Pre-wash water and Rinse water to hot
(see “Supervisor level”).
 Unscrew the stopper from the hot
water valve.
 Screw on the hot water hose.
Drainage
Drain valve
The machine is drained using a motor-
ised drain valve. A DN70 angle con-
nector can be used for draining the ma-
chine via an on-site floor drain (gully
with odour trap).
