Water supply connections
This appliance can be connected to either a hot (max. 60°) or cold water supply.
With a hot water supply you can have a significant reduction of energy consumption. This however, depends on how the hot water is produced. (We suggest alternative sources of energy that are more environmentally friendly as e.g. solar or photovoltaic panels and aeolian).
For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the machine's supply hose is designed to screw onto a 3/4" thread spout or to a purpose made
The water pressure must be within the limits given in the "Technical specifications". Your local Water Authority will advise you on the average mains pressure in your area.
The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled when it is being connected. The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation by means of the locknut.
