Installation & testing

40000391-Eng.qxd 18/09/2003 08:51 Page 6

Note: we recommend you keep the transit bracket and

screws to protect the machine for future transit.

The Manufacturers will not be responsible for any

damage to the machine caused by not following the

instructions relating to releasing the transit protection.

The user is responsible for all installation costs.

Connecting the fill hose

This machine has an inlet hose with a 19 mm (3/4”) threaded ferrule fitted to the

end to attach between the threaded connector on the appliance and the water

supply.

Only use the new hose supplied to connect the machine and ensure that the

sealing washer is in place inside the hose connector.

Do not re-use old hoses which are attached to existing installations.

Do not over-tighten the connection. Hand tight is sufficient.

Do not trap or kink the hose.

1. Connect the elbow end of the hose to the

back of the machine.

2. Connect the straight end of the hose to the

stop taps.

Acqua-stop (fitted to certain models)

The fill hose supplied with this machine has a

double skin and incorporates a water valve (A). If

the inner hose bursts the valve will automatically

shut off the water supply to prevent flooding. The

indicator turns red (B).

Should this happen, turn off the water supply

immediately and have a new fill hose fitted by

Hoover Service.

40000391-Eng.qxd 18/09/2003 08:52 Page 7

If the inlet hose’s connection point is changed, check that the 3/4” threaded ferrule

on the inlet hose is firmly attached to the electrovalve connector.

3. Select a spin programme and then press the “DEPART/PAUSE” button to start

the machine.

Allow the programme to continue for one minute and then cancel the

programme (please refer to “Description of Controls” section for cancelling the

programme). This will remove any water remaining in the machine from factory

testing.

Select a rinse programme and press the “DEPART/PAUSE” button to start the

machine.

Allow the tumble action to continue until the water has pumped out.

To ensure the drum is thoroughly clean after testing and storage, select

programme 1 and run the machine for a complete cycle using only wash

detergent and water.

If the machine is not to be used immediately, switch off the mains power supply

and remove the plug from the power socket. We also recommend that the water

stop taps are turned off.

Note: it is advisable to isolate the washing machine

from the water and electricity supplies after each wash.

Electricity supply and safety advice

phase. Check that the conductor is powerful enough to supply at least 3.0 kW,

then connect the plug to an earthed socket.

Electricity can be extremely dangerous. This washing machine must be earthed.

The socket outlet and the plug on the appliance must be of the same type.

It is not advisable to use multiple adapters and/or extension leads.

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following codes:
