Hot and Cold water feeds are the blue and red pipes. These come from the back of the machine and connect to the permenent fixed supplys, there should be shut off valves fitted here, (blue and red quarter turn valves). Close these first. Unplug the machine from your electrical supply. The grey ribbed pipe is the waste water outlet, disconnect this at the waste pipe end, not at the machine, drain any remaining water. Unscrew the blue and red connectors at the shut off valve points and drain any water from these two pipes. The machine can now be dispossed of, unless there is anything that you wish to retain.
