have10–80litersofwaterflowingfromthefullyopen
tap in one minute to have your machine run smoothly.
Attach a pressure reducing valve if water pressure is
higher.
CIfyouaregoingtousethedoublewater-inletproduct
as a single (cold) water-inlet unit, you must install the
suppliedstoppertothehotwatervalvebeforeoperating
the product. (Applies for the products supplied with a
