Installation instructions

If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a drain.

Fitting under a counter

Proceed as follows:

Remove the machine’s worktop by unscrewing the two rear retaining screws, pull the worktop from the back of the machine and slide out the front slots, lifting the worktop.

Insert the machine after adjusting height and levelling with the adjustable feet. When inserting the machine, ensure that the water inlet and drain hoses are not kinked or squashed. During all operations that involve accessibility to internal components the dishwasher has to be unplugged.

Be sure that once the appliance has been installed, it is easily accessible for the service engineer in the event that a repair is required.

If the dishwasher is later used as a free-standing appliance, the original worktop must be re-mounted.

The plinth on free-standing appliances is not adjustable.

Levelling

Good levelling is essential for correct closure and sealing of the door.

When the appliance is correctly levelled, the door will not catch on either side of the cabinet.

If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the adjustable feet until the machine is perfectly level.

Water supply connections

This dishwasher must be plumbed into a cold water supply.

For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the machine’s supply hose is designed to screw onto a 3/4" inch gas thread spout.

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 inlet hose must hang down vertically from the supply tap.

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. The locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. (Attention! NOT all models of dishwashers have fill and drain hoses provided with locknut. In this case, this kind of facility is not possible).

If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose.

Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been used with another appliance.

The dishwasher is fitted with safety devices that prevent the wash water returning into the drinking water system and comply with the applicable plumbing regulations.
