Connecting the water supply

Your dishwasher should be connected to a cold water supply.

Never connect your dishwasher to open hot water appliances and continuous flow heaters!

We advise you use a cold water supply because a hot water supply is not always efficient with very soiled crockery as it shortens the washing programmes.

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.

The water pressure must be within the limits given in the technical specifications.

Your dishwasher has been built in accordance with the valid regulations governing water-consuming appliances and is equipped with safety devices which prevent used water from flowing back into the drinking water mains.

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

Water outlet connection

The end of the drain hose can be connected as follows:

1.To the sink outlet siphon, securing it if necessary with a clip.

2.Hooked over the edge of the sink using the special curved plastic guide provided.

3.To a wall outlet provided with vent-hole, minimum internal diameter 4 cm.

The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the floor.

It makes no difference which way the drain hose faces, either to the right or left of the dishwasher.

Avoid bending or kinking the hose as this could prevent or slow down the discharge of water.
