age and damage to the appliance.
Before starting up the appliance,
remove the transit bolts completely
and keep them in a safe place.
Before transport, fit the transit bolts
fully in order to prevent damage in
transit.
Material damage may be caused if
the water inlet hose is connected in-
correctly.
Tighten the screw connections on
the water inlet until they are hand-
tight.
Connect the water inlet hose dir-
ectly to the water tap, without any
additional connecting elements
such as adapters, extensions or
valves.

for the water inlet hose does not
come into contact with its sur-
roundings and is not subjected to
any external forces.
Ensure that the inner diameter of
the water tap is at least 17mm.
Make sure that the length of the
thread on the connection to the
water tap is at least 10mm.

maximum value specified, a pres-
sure-reducing valve must be in-
stalled between the drinking water
connection and the hose set of the
appliance.
Do not connect the appliance to
the mixer tap of an unpressurised
hot-water boiler.
Modified or damaged water hoses
may result in material damage and
damage to the appliance.
