Installation

Positioning the Appliance

Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation.

Levelling the Appliance

Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in or out) to adjust the height of the dishwasher, making it level. In any case, the appliance should not be inclined more than 2°.

If the appliance is level, it will help ensure proper perfor- mance.

This dishwasher model can be built under a single worktop (please read the relevant instruction sheet).

Cold Water Connection

This electric household appliance should be connected to the water mains using the cold water supply hose provided with the appliance only. Do not

use a different hose. In the event of replacements, use original spare parts only.

Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas)

connector, inserting the small

A

 

filter supplied with the

 

dishwasher and making sure

 

that it is fastened tightly in place

Fig.2

(see figure 2).

 

If the water pipes are new or

 

have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there is a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and damage the appliance.

Hot Water Connection

The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the house's hot water line (centralised system, heating system), as long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60° C.

In this case, the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15 minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced.

The connection must be made to the hot water line following the same procedures as those for the connection to the cold water line.

Drain Hose Connection

 

Fit the drain pipe into a drain

 

 

 

A

line with a minimum diameter

 

 

of 4 cm or place it over the

 

 

sink. Avoid restricting or

 

 

bending it. Use the special

 

 

plastic elbow provided (see fi-

 

 

gure) to position it in the best

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

possible way. The part of the

 

 

 

 

pipe marked with the letter A

 

 

 

 

should be between 40 and

 

 

 

 

100 cm above the ground.

 

The pipe should not be immersed in water.

 

Attention: The special plastic hose support must be solidly fastened to the wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to spill outside the drain.

Electrical Connection

After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for the current in the home correspond to those on the rating plate (located on the stainless steel inner door of the appliance) and that the electrical system is sized for the maximum voltage on the rating plate, insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly (the earthing of the appliance is a safety requirement mandated by law). If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not appropriate for the plug, replace the plug, rather than using adpators or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.

Should the electricity supply cable be damaged, we recommend that you only contact authorised Technical Service Centres for the replacement.
