Water drainage
The drain hose can be either connected to a siphon
or hung in a basin, sink or bathtub.
Only original hoses may be used to extend the hose
(max. 3 m laid on the ground and then up to 80 cm
high). Customer Service provides drain hoses of 2.7
m and 4m in length.
Important: Lay the drain hose so that it is absolutely
free of kinks.
Draining water through a siphon
The spout at the end of the drain hose is suitable for
all the usual types of siphon.
Secure the spout/siphon connection point with a
hose clip.
Draining water into a basin
Important:
– Small basins are not suitable for draining water.
Water could overflow if a small basin is used.
– The end of the drain hose must not dip into the
water which has been pumped out. Water may
otherwise be sucked back into the appliance.
– To hang the drain hose into a wash basin or a
bath tub, the drain hose must be secured to avoid
slipping by using the accompanying attachable
elbow. The rebound strength of the out-flowing
water can otherwise push the hose out of the
basin.
Use a cord to secure the elbow to the tap or the wall.
Pump lifts of over 1m
Each washing machine has a drain pump which is
used to pump out wash/rinse water; this drain pump
conveys liquids through the drain hose up to a height
of 1m, calculated from the surface on which the
machine is placed.
For pump lifts of over 1m, please contact Customer
Service.
