Installation instructions
Connecting the water inlet hose
7
Important!
The appliance should be connected to the water main using only the new hose supplied with the dishwasher. Old hose sets should not be used.
1Check water connection requirements.
The dishwasher has a single valve water connection. We recommend a cold water connection.
The incoming water temperature should not exceed 60 ºC.
2Check water pressure.
Permitted water pressure extremes

Lowest: 0.3 bar = 3 N/cm2 = 30kPa
When pressure is below 1 bar, contact a qualified technician. Highest: 10 bar = 100n/cm2 = 1MPa
When pressure is above 10 bar, a pressure reduction valve must be installed. Contact a qualified technician.
3Connect the water inlet hose to an accessible water tap using a ¾” bsp connector.
The valve box of the AQUASAFE+
If required, use a filter insert (Part No. 420016P) to filter out deposits from the piping. It is available from the nearest Authorised Service Agent.
4Tighten the hose coupling a further half turn after seal contact.
5 Ensure incoming water is clear.
If the water pipes have not been used for a long period of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear with no impurities. Not doing so may result in the water inlet hose getting blocked and damaging the appliance.
6 Check that the connection does not leak.
About the AQUASAFE + anti-flood protection system
The Aquasafe+ System protects against water damage by stopping the water flowing in the event of a damaged hose or a leak within the machine.
Do not immerse the system’s valve box into water; it contains electrical components. In case of damage, pull out the power supply plug.
Do not shorten or lengthen the water inlet hose insert as it contains electrical cables and components.
Connecting the drain hose
For drain hose connection options and requirements, see the illustrations opposite.
If a drain hose extension is required, a drain hose of equal quality and not longer than 4 m must be used. Using a hose longer than 4 m will produce poorer cleaning results.
