position.
www.aeg.com10

9. Remove the power supply cable and
the drain hose from the hose holders.
It is possible to see
water flowing from the
drain hose. This is due
to the testing with water
of the appliance in
factory.
10. Remove the three bolts by using the
spanner supplied with the appliance.
11. Pull out the plastic spacers.
12. Put the plastic caps, that you find in
the user manual bag, in the holes.
We recommend that you
keep the packaging and the
transit bolts for any
movement of the appliance.
5.2 Installation on suspended
flooring
Suspended wooden floors are
particularly susceptible to vibration.
To limit vibration we recommend placing
a waterproof wooden panel, at least 15
mm thick, under the appliance. It should
be screwed to at least 2 floor beams and
should extend beyond the front feet.
If possible, install the appliance where
the floor is more stable.
5.3 Positioning and levelling
1. Install the appliance on a flat hard
floor.
Make sure that carpets do
not stop the air circulation
below the appliance.
Make sure that the appliance
does not touch the wall or
other units.
2. Loosen or tighten the feet to adjust
the level.
WARNING!
Do not put cardboard, wood
or equivalent materials
below the appliance feet to
adjust the level.
ENGLISH 11

x4
The appliance must be level and stable.
A correct adjustment of the
appliance level prevents the
vibration, noise and the
movement of the appliance
when in operation.
When the appliance is
installed on a plinth, use the
accessory described in
chapter 'Accessories'. Read
carefully the instructions
supplied with the appliance
and with the accessory.
5.4 The inlet hose
1. Connect the water inlet hose to the
back of the appliance.
2. Position it toward left or right
depending on the position of the
water tap.
20º20º
45º45º
Make sure that the inlet hose
is not in vertical position.
3. If necessary, loose the ring nut to set
it in the correct position.
4. Connect the water inlet hose to the
cold water tap with 3/4" thread.
WARNING!
The inlet water shall not
exceed 25 °C.
CAUTION!
Make sure that there are no
leaks from the couplings.
Do not use an extension
hose if the inlet hose is too
short. Contact the service
centre for the replacement of
the inlet hose.
5.5 Water-stop device
The inlet hose has a water stop device.
This device prevents water leaks in the
hose because of its natural ageing.
The red sector in the window «A» shows
this fault.
www.aeg.com12

A
If this occurs, close the water tap and
contact the authorized service centre to
replace the hose.
5.6 Water drainage
The drain hose should be positioned at a
height of not less than 60 cm and not
more than 100 cm from the floor.
You can extend the drain
hose to maximum 400 cm.
Contact the authorized
service centre for the other
drain hose and the
extension.
It is possible to connect the drain hose in
different ways:
1. Make a U shape with the drain hose
and put it around the plastic hose
guide.
2. On the edge of a sink - Fasten the
guide to the water tap or to the wall.
Make sure that the plastic
guide cannot move when the
appliance drains.
Make sure that the drain
hose end is not immersed in
the water. There may be a
return of dirty water into the
appliance.
3. To a stand pipe with vent-hole -
Insert the drain hose directly into a
drain pipe. Refer to the illustration.
The end of the drain hose
must always be ventilated ,
i.e. the inner diameter of the
drain pipe (min. 38 mm -
min. 1.5") must be larger
than the external diameter of
the drain hose.
4. If the end of the drain hose looks like
this (see the picture), you can push it
directly into the stand pipe.
ENGLISH 13

5. Without the plastic hose guide, to
a sink spigot - Put the drain hose in
the spigot and tighten it with a clamp.
Refer to the illustration.
Make sure that the drain
hose makes a loop to
prevent particles going into
the appliance from the sink.
6. Position the hose directly to a built-
in drain pipe in the room wall and
tighten it with a clamp.
5.7 Electrical connection
At the end of installation you can connect
the mains plug to the mains socket.
The rating plate and the 'Technical Data'
chapter indicate the necessary electrical
ratings. Make sure that they are
compatible with the mains power supply.
Check that your domestic electrical
installation can take the maximum load
required, also taking into account any
other appliances in use.
