Connecting the drain hose  
Connect the drain hose,  
• the supply voltage is included within the values indica-  
ted on the Technical Data Plate fixed on the machine.  
EN  
• the socket is compatible with the washing machines  
plug. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the  
plug.  
without bending it, to a  
draining duct or a wall  
drain situated between  
65 and 100 cm from the  
floor;  
Your appliance is now supplied with a 13 amp fused plug  
it can be plugged into a 13 amp socket for immediate use.  
Before using the appliance please read the instructions  
below.  
65 - 100 cm  
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.  
THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD BE CARRIED  
OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.  
The drain hose may  
be connected to an  
under-sink trap. Before  
connecting the drain  
hose from the machine  
ensure that any blanks  
or removable ends have  
been taken off the spigot.  
Replacing the fuse:  
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA approved  
fuse to BS 1362 should always be used, and the fuse  
cover re-fitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not  
be used until a replacement is obtained.  
Where it connects to  
the waste water pipe  
cut end off spigot or  
remove the blanking cap  
Replacement fuse covers:  
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the  
correct colour as indicated by the coloured marking or the  
colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug.  
Replacements can be obtained directly from your nearest  
Service Depot.  
If it is placed over the  
edge of a basin or sink  
be sure the free end of  
the hose should not be  
underwater.  
Removing the plug:  
If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug  
and you should wish to re-route the mains cable through  
partitions, units etc., please ensure that either:  
the plug is replaced by a fused 13 ampere rewireable plug  
bearing the BSI mark of approval.  
! We advise against the use of hose extensions; in case  
of absolute need, the extension must have the same  
diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150  
cm in length.  
Ensure that if the drain hose is pushed into a standpipe,  
that the end does not go down more than 15cms (6  
inches). If the hose is pushed down too far, this may  
cause the machine to self -syphon ie. continuously  
empty as it is filling.  
or:  
the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp cable outlet,  
controlled by a switch, (in compliance with BS 5733) which  
is accessible without moving the appliance.  
Disposing of the plug:  
Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, you make  
the pins unusable so that it cannot be accidentally inserted  
into a socket.
