5 / ENWashing Machine / User’s Manual
2.4 Connecting water supply
The water supply pressure required to run the product is
between 1 to 10 bars (0.1 – 1 MPa). It is necessary to
have 10 – 80 liters of water flowing from the fully open
tap in one minutetohave your machine run smoothly.
Attach a pressure reducing valve if water pressure is
higher.
If you are going to use the double water-inlet product
as asingle (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
blind stopper group.)
WARNİNG: Models with a single water inlet should not be
connected to the hot water tap. In such a case the laundry
will get damaged or the product will switch to protection
mode and will not operate.
WARNİNG: Do not use old or used water inlet hoses on the
new product. It may cause stains on your laundry.
1. Connect the special hoses supplied with the product to
the water inlets on the product. Red hose (left) (max. 90
ºC) is for hot water inlet, blue hose (right) (max. 25 ºC) is
for cold water inlet.
WARNİNG: Ensure that the cold and hot water connections
are made correctly when installing the product.
Otherwise, your laundry will come out hot at the end of
the washing process and wear out.
2. Tighten all hose nuts by hand. Never use a tool when
tightening the nuts.
3. Open the taps completely aftermaking the hose
connection to check for water leaks at the connection
points. If any leaks occur, turn off the tap and remove the
nut. Retighten the nut carefully after checking the seal. To
prevent water leakages and damages caused by them,
keep the taps closed when the machine is not in use.
2.5 Connecting tothe drain
•The end of the drain hose must be directly connected to
the wastewater drain or to the washbasin.
WARNİNG: Your house will be flooded if the hose comes
out of its housing during water discharge. Moreover, there
is risk of scalding due to high washing temperatures!
To prevent such situations and to ensure smooth water
intake and discharge of the machine, fix the end of the
discharge hose tightly so that it cannot come out.
•The hose should be attached to a height of at least 40
cm, and 100 cm at most.
•In case the hose is elevated after laying it on the floor
level orclose to the ground (less than 40 cm above the
ground), water discharge becomes more difficult and the
laundry may come out excessively wet. Therefore, follow
the heights described in the figure.
•To prevent flowing of dirty water back into the machine
and to allow for easy discharge, do not immerse the hose
end into the dirty water or do not drive it in the drain more
than 15 cm. If it is too long, cut it short.
•The end of the hose should not be bent, it should not be
stepped on and the hose must not be pinched between
the drain and the machine.
•If the length of the hose is too short, use it by adding
an original extension hose. Length of the hose may
not be longer than 3.2 m. To avoid water leak failures,
the connection between the extension hose and the
drain hose of the product must be fitted well with an
appropriate clamp as not to come off and leak.
2.6 Adjusting the feet
WARNİNG: In order to ensure that the product operates
more silently and vibration-free,itmuststand level and
balanced on its feet. Balance the machine by adjusting
the feet. Otherwise, the product may move from its place
and cause crushing and vibration problems.
1. Loosen the lock nuts on the feet by hand.
2. Adjust the feet until the product stands level and
balanced.
3. Tighten all lock nuts again by hand.
WARNİNG: Do notuse any tools to loosen the lock nuts.
Otherwise, they will get damaged.
2.7 Electrical connection
Connect the product to a grounded outlet protected by a 16
A fuse. Our company shall not be liable for any damages
that will arise when the product is used without grounding in

6 / EN Washing Machine / User’s Manual
