Connecting the Dishwasher

Water Connection

The dishwasher is fitted with safety devices that pre- vent the wash water returning into the drinking water system and comply with the applicable plumbing reg- ulations.

The dishwasher can be connected to cold and hot water supplies up to max. 60 °C.

The dishwasher must not be connected to open hot water appliances or instantaneous water heat- ers.

Permitted water pressure

Lowest permitted water pressure:

Consult your installer if the water pressure is less than 1 bar.

1 bar (=10 N/cm2 =100 kPa)

 

Highest permitted water pressure:

In the case of a water pressure greater than 10 bar, a pressure reduc-

10 bar (=100 N/cm2 =1 MPa)

tion valve must be used (available from your dealer).

Connect the inlet hose

1The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed or entangled when it is being con- nected up.

Connect the threaded hose fitting

(ISO 228-1:2000) on the water inlet hose to a tap with an external thread (¾ inch). Tighten the threaded hose fitting hand tight only.

3In order that access to the tap in the kitchen is not limited by the use of the dishwasher, we recommend the installation of an addi- tional tap, or fitting a two way adapter to the existing tap.

If you need a longer water inlet hose than that supplied, VDE approved complete hose sets are to be used. These are available from your local Service Force Centre.
