For making the connection itself, the cou- pling nut fitted to the appliance water inlet hose is designed to screw onto a 3/4" 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 data'. Your local Wa- ter 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 con- nected.

The appliance features inlet 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.

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

DO NOT use connection hoses which have previously been used on an old ap- pliance.

This appliance has been fitted with safe- ty 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.

Water inlet hose with safety valve

After connecting the double-walled water in- let hose, the safety valve is next to the tap. Therefore the water inlet hose is only under pressure while the water is running. If the wa- ter inlet hose starts to leak during this oper- ation, the safety valve cuts off the running water.

Please take care when installing the water inlet hose:

The electrical cable for the safety valve is in the double-walled water inlet hose. Do not immerse the water inlet hose or the safety valve in water.

If water inlet hose or the safety valve is damaged, remove the mains plug imme- diately.

A water inlet hose with safety valve must only be replaced by the Service Force Centre.

Warning! Dangerous voltage

Water drain connection

The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following ways:

1.To the sink outlet spigot, securing it to the underside of the work surface. This will prevent waste water from the sink run- ning into the machine.

2.To a stand pipe provided with venthole, minimum internal diameter 4 cm.

The waste connection must be at a maxi- mum height of 60 cm from the bottom of the dishwasher.

The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the dishwasher

Ensure the drain hose is not bent or squash- ed as this could prevent or slow down the discharge of water.

The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is draining as this could cause the water to syphon back into the machine.

The total length of the drain hose, including any extension you might add, must be no longer than 4 metres. The internal diameter of the extension hose must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.
