1 Safety Precautions
• Servicing shall be carried out only by authorized personnel.
• Only authorized spare parts, accessories and consumables shall be used.
• Only use detergent intended for water-wash of textiles. Never use dry cleaning agents.
• The machine shall be connected with new water hoses. Re-used water hoses must not
be used.
• The machine's door lock must under no circumstances be bypassed.
• If the machine develops a fault, this must be reported to the person in charge as soon
as possible. This is important both for your safety and that of others.
• DO NOT MODIFY THIS APPLIANCE.
• When performing service or replacing parts, the power must be disconnected.
• When the power is disconnected, the operator must see that the machine is discon-
nected (that the plug is removed and remains removed) from any point to which he has
access. If this is not possible, due to the construction or installation of the machine, a
disconnection with a locking system in the isolated position shall be provided.
• In accordance with the wiring rules: mount a multi-pole switch prior to the machine to
facilitate installation and service operations.
• If different rated voltages or different rated frequencies (separated by a /) are stated at
the machine data plate, instructions for adjusting the appliance for operation at the re-
quired rated voltage or rated frequency are stated in the installation manual.
• Stationary appliances not fitted with means for disconnection from the supply mains
having a contact separation in all poles that provide full disconnection under overvolt-
age category III, means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in
accordance with the wiring rules.
• The openings in the base, shall not be obstructed by a carpet.
• Maximum mass of dry cloth:
– Lagoon programs: 3.7 kg.
– General programs: 6 kg.
• A-weighted emission sound pressure level at working stations:
– Wash: <70 dB(A).
– Extraction: <70 dB(A).

7 Connection of external dosing systems
7.1 Connection of the hoses
The machine is prepared for connection of external dosing systems or water re-use systems etc.
EDS, Efficient Dosing System:
• Cut the top of the hose nipples to be used as showed in the figure.
• Connect the hoses to the hose nipples.
Venturi, Efficient Dosing System:
Note!
Connect the hose to the nipple at port (A) only.
• Cut the top of the hose nipple (A) as showed in the figure.
• Connect the hose to the hose nipple (A).
A
fig.X01844
Always connect hoses on connections with a hose clamp.
If the hoses are made of a soft material such as silicon or similar, use a cable tie to fasten the hose on the connection.
If the hoses are made of a hard material, it is not recommended to make the connection tighter by using a cable tie.
Note!
Equipment for external dosing must only be connected to work on pump pressure and not on network
pressure.
7.2 Electrical connection of external dosing system
The power supply to the external dosing system must never be connected to the machine’s incoming terminal
block or to the edge connectors on the I/O-board.

Installation manual 17
7.2.1 Machine with connectors
Connect the external dosing system to connections A and B on the machine.
Connect the signal cable to B and the power supply to A.
For Efficient dosing system the cables are delivered with the machine.
Connect the power supply cable to the machine A and the other end of the cable together with the cable from Effi-
cient Dosing in a connection box or with plug and receptacle.
Connect one end of the cable to the Efficient Dosing Controller J2 and the other end to the machine B.

7.2.4 Inputs
The signal level can be 5-24V DC/AC or 100- 240V AC. For 5-24V, the signal reference is connected to 3 and for
100-240V to 4. Potentials on the inputs cannot be mixed.
Note!
The I/O board will be damaged if the voltage on connection 3 is too high > 24V.
Connection 8 may be connected if the program is to pause, e.g. while detergent is being dosed.
The figure shows an example of engaging a 24V pause signal. The program will pause for as long as the pause sig-
nal remains activated (high).

Connection 7. If this is connected, an error message will be displayed if any of the chemical tanks are empty. The pro-
gram will continue, however.
The figure shows an example of engaging a normal open contact.
