Extension hoses
The necessary extension hoses can be obtained from specialist shops or from our
technical assistance centres.
The extension hose must be no longer than 2 metres and its internal diameter must
be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.
Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for connection to the waste
outlet must be no smaller than the diameter of the drain hose.
Arrange the extension hose horizontally along the floor and allow it to rise only
where it is to be connected to the drain.
Protection against flooding
In order to prevent water floods, the machine has been provided with two additional
devices, having the following characteristics:
1. In the water inlet hose (see "Water supply connections").
The device comes into operation as a result of any damage to the water inlet
hose and stops the water inflow. It functions even with the machine off.
To repair the machine call the Service Centre.
2. In the bottom of the machine:
the device comes into operation as a result of any water leaks in the machine and
it functions only with the machine on.
In case of malfunction, the "Washing" and "Drying" phase indicator lights start
flashing (see "What to do, if.....").
In this case turn off the water tap and call the Service Centre.
