Power supply
Details on the mains voltage,
type of current and the neces-
sary fuse protection are to be
found on the rating plate. The
rating plate is above and
behind the door.
For permanent electrical con-
nection within the electrical
circuit, provisions must be made which allow for electrical disconnec-
tion of the appliance from the mains with a contact opening of at least
3 mm at all poles. Suitable devices include circuit breakers, fuses
(threaded fuses must be entirely removed from the socket), ground
fault circuit interrupters and contactors. Permanent connection may
only be carried out by an authorised electrician.
; This appliance conforms to the following EC directives
– "Low-Voltage Directive" 73/23/EWG dated 19 February 1973
and Directive amendment 93/68/EWG
– "EMC Directive" 89/336/EWG dated 3 May 1989
and Directive amendment 93/68/EWG
Water connection
3 The washing machine is provided with safety devices which prevent
reverse pollution of drinking water and conform to the State regula-
tions issued by water supply authorities (e.g. in Germany: DVGW Direc-
tives). Further protective measures in the installation are hence
unnecessary.
Attention! Appliances for cold water connection may not be con-
nected to warm water!
Permissible water pressure
Water pressure must be equal to a least 1 bar (= 10N/cm
2
= 0.1 MPa),
and no more than 10 bar (= 100N/cm
2
= 1 MPa).
• By more than 10 bar: connect a pressure reduction valve upstream.
• By less than 1 bar: Unscrew the flexible inlet tubing on the magnetic
inlet valve on one side of the appliance and remove the flow meter
(thereby remove the sieve by means of a pair of pointed pliers and
then remove the rubber washer behind it). Remount the sieve.
