Water supply connections
This dishwasher may be fed with
either hot (max. 60°) or cold water.
Nevertheless we advise you a cold
water supply.
A hot water supply is not always
efficient with very soiled crockery as it
shortens the washing programmes a
lot.
For making the connection itself, the
coupling nut fitted to the machine’s
supply hose is designed to screw onto
a 3/4" gas thread spout or to a
purpose made quick-coupling tap
such as the Press-block.
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.
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 connection hoses
which have previously been used
for an old appliance.
This appliance has been fitted with
safety features which will prevent the
water used in the appliance from
returning back into the drinking water
system. This appliance complies with
the applicable plumbing regulations.
