Solution
The drain hose can be lengthened using additional lengths and connectors. These must be purchased from Electrolux Spare Parts.
The extension length must not exceed 2 metres.
The highest point of the drain hose must be no more than 600 mm from the floor and must have a continuous fall to the plumbing connection.
Remove the sink plug when the appliance drains the water to prevent that the water goes back into the appliance.
The appliance has a security feature to prevent dirty water going back into the appliance. If the spigot of the sink has a non-return valve, this valve can cause the appliance to drain incorrectly. remove the non-return valve.
If you connect the water drain hose to a trap spigot under the sink, remove the plastic membrane. If you do not remove the membrane, remaining food can cause a blockage in the drain hose spigot.
