The First Wash Cycle; Technical Data; Electrical Connections - Indesit PWE 8168 W Bedienungsanleitungen

Connecting the drain hose

We advise against the use of hose extensions; if it is
absolutely necessary, the extension must have the
same diameter as the original hose and must not
exceed 150 cm in length.

Electrical connections

Before plugging the appliance into the electricity
socket, make sure that:
• the socket is earthed and complies with all
applicable laws;
• the socket is able to withstand the maximum
power load of the appliance as indicated in the
Technical data table (see opposite);
• the power supply voltage falls within the values
indicated in the Technical data table (see opposite);
• the socket is compatible with the plug of the
washing machine. If this is not the case, replace the
socket or the plug.

The washing machine must not be installed
outdoors, even in covered areas. It is extremely
dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to rain,
storms and other weather conditions.

When the washing machine has been installed, the
electricity socket must remain within easy reach.

Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.
Connect the drain hose,
without bending it, to a
drain duct or a wall drain
situated between 65 and
100 cm from the floor;
alternatively, place it
over the edge of a
basin, sink or tub,
fastening the duct
supplied to the tap (see
figure). The free end of
the hose should not be
underwater.

The cable should not be bent or compressed.

The power supply cable must only be replaced by
authorised technicians.
Warning! The company shall not be held responsible
in the event that these standards are not observed.

The first wash cycle

Once the appliance has been installed, and before you
use it for the first time, run a wash cycle with
detergent and no laundry, using wash cycle number 2.
