Washing machine drain hose too short

I bought a Zanussi ZWF12070W1 washing machine at the weekend but the drain hose is too short. Additionally, the drain hose attached has a nozzle at the end rather than a cuff to connect to a sink outlet spigot. Can I attach a suitable extension kit to this hose or is it more straightforward to replace the entire hose with a longer one (say 2.5m)?

My zanussi washer zwh6160 p stopped working yesterday. It stopped with a load in it. We gad to manually drain it, then git the door open. We cleaned the filter and inlet pipe filter. We switched it on

Considering that machine did not show any error first check that is not activated option "rinse hold" what mean's "stop drum with full of water". I advise you to make a simple test that will show you where the problem is. In the washing machine or somewhere else. Disconnect the drain hose and lift it up to 1m in height and its end hold over the tub or some larger container. Select short drain program and press the start / pause button. If drain hose ejects a solid water stream then is a problem in-house installation of drain water. If does't or poorly drain water then is problem in the washing machine.

My Zanussi Electrolux Essential 1200 washing machine ZWF12070W1

Most times unplugging a washer for 5 min or so will reset to factory. Some units just a quick unplug works too. But I'm not totally familiar with yours.
If it's going to be hard to unplug just turn off the breaker to it.
Hope this helps

I have a Zanussi ZWF12070W1 washing machine. It's

Hello,

Hope I can help.When you press the start button is there a buzzing coming from down by the filter if so Check that there is not something stuck in the filter.You will have to be careful depending on how much water is left in the drum so put some towels down and undo filter slowly or get the machine near a door then release filter out onto a door step.when drained shine a torch up inside filter and see if the little plastic blade on pump can turn but do not try and force it,if you do find anything in there then try it again and check the pockets.If there is still a fault you will have to call out your Engineer.

Good Luck
