The existing safety rules call for the appliance to be connected to an efficient ground wire. The manufacturer disclaims any liability whatsoever if B this accident prevention rule is not complied with. This appliance complies with E.E.C. directive n° 87-308 of 06.1987 relative to radio interference suppression and with E.E.C. directive n° 73-23 relative to electrical safety. Turn the two screws round a quarter with a screwdriver or a coin in order to take away the detergent dispenser. Water connection · The end of the water inlet hose must be connected to a cold water tap having 3/4" gas thread spout or to a water tap having a quick-coupling connector after having introduced in the hose ring nut a rubber sealing washer also provided with the machine. · The curved end of the outlet hose should be inserted into a drain pipe not less than 70 cm and not more than 1,0 m from floor level. Make sure that the drain hose is always safely secured so that it will not become loose or fall down from its position. The water should drain freely and consequently, the drain hose should not be chocked or placed in such a way as to obstruct the normal water flow. If an extension is required, remember that it might cause a malfunction in the drain pump, particularly if the extension has a length in excess of 1 meter or if the diameter of the extension is smaller than the diameter of the original drain hose. Water pressure : minimum : 5 N/cm2 (0,5 kg/cm2) - maximum : 80 N/cm2 (8 kg/cm2) The detergent dispenser is very easy to remove, you just have to slide it towards the top. Clean the detergent dispenser under runnnig water with a brush or a twisted rag.
