Water supply connections
This dishwasher may be fed with either hot (max. 60°C) or cold water.
Nevertheless we advise a cold water supply.
A hot water supply is not always efficient with very soiled crockery as it shortens the washing programmes.
Feeding the appliance with a hot water supply (max. 60°C) will allow you to obtain considerably shorter programmes.
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 dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation.
The locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks.
Avoid bends or kinks in the hose which could prevent or slow down the water supply.
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. This will prevent
deposits of sand or rust clogging the inlet hose filter.
For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the machine’s supply hose is designed to screw onto either a 3/4" inch gas thread spout, or to a purpose made
