Cold water con-
nection
Hot water connec-
tion
Tip: We recommend connection to the power supply via a suitable
plug and socket which must be easily accessible for servicing and
maintenance work after the machine has been installed.
If it is necessary to install a residual current device (RCD) in accor-

dance with local regulations, a type B residual current device (sensi-
tive to universal current) must be used.
An existing type A residual current device (RCD) must be exchanged
for a type B RCD.
If local and national installation specifications require equipotential

bonding, good galvanic contact must be guaranteed. Equipotential
bonding must have a ground current rating > 10 mA.
Water connection
The washing machine must be connected to a water supply system
in accordance with local and national safety regulations. It can be
connected to the water supply without a non-return valve, if national
standards permit.
The flow pressure must amount to a minimum of 100 kPa (14.5 psi)
and must not exceed an overpressure of 1,000 kPa (145 psi). If the
flow pressure is higher than 1,000 kPa (145 psi), a pressure reducing
valve must be used.
The machine must be connected to the water connection using the
water inlet hoses provided.
 The connection points are subject to water connection pressure.
Turn on the water supplies slowly and check for leaks. Correct the
position of the seal and screw thread if appropriate.
For the cold water connection one faucet each with a ¾" screw
thread is required.
If a water connection is not available, only a qualified installer may
connect the washing machine to the drinking water supply.
The inlet hose for cold water is not suitable for connection to a hot
water connection.
The same connection requirements as for cold water also apply to hot
water up to 158 °F (70 °C).
A suitable connection hose with a threaded union is supplied with the
machine.
The machine with hot water connection also requires a cold water
connection.
In the event that hot water is not available on site, a cold water supply
must be used for the hot water connection.
The required amount of hot water should be added to the cold water
volume.
Alternatively, the hot water connection should be blocked using the
blind stopper supplied with the machine and the machine controls
should be set to cold water intake.
