Haier DW12-PFE1ME manual Installation

Installation EN

Positioning the appliance

Positioning the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or wall. The dish- washer is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation.

Levelling the appliance

Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in or out) to adjust the dishwasher, making it level. In any case, the appliance should not be inclined more than 2˚. If the appliance is level, it will help ensure proper performance.

Cold water connection

Connect the water supply hose to a water outlet tap, making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see fig.A). Make sure the rubber washer is seated firmly in the bottom of the connector.

If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there is a risk that the water inletcan get blocked and damage the appliance.

Warning

The appliance is to be connected to the water mains using

new hose-sets and that old hose-sets should not be reused.

Anti-Flooding protection (for some models)

Your dishwasher has an overfill protection device which could automatically shut off the inlet valve and starts the drain pump if the water level in the unit is detected to be above the normal level.

If this occurs, turn off the main water supply before calling for servicing. If there is water in the base pan because of an overfill or small leak, the water should be removed before restarting the dishwasher.

Drain hose connection

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4cm, or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. If necessary, fit a syphon trap (U-bend) with a connecting piece for the drain hose (fig.B). The free end of the hose must be at a height between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in water.

Attention:

The connecting piece for syphon trap (U-bend) must be solidly fastened to the wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to spill outside the drain.

Electrical Connection

After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for your home correspond to those on the rating plate (located on the stainless steel inner door of the appliance) and that the electrical system is correct for the maximum voltage on the rating plate, insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly (the earthing of the appliance is a safety requirement mandated by law).

If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not appro- priate for the plug, replace the whole cable, rather than using adaptors or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.

Caution:

The dishwasher plug must be accessible even when the appliance is installed as a built-in unit so that maintenance can be done safely.

Electrical Connection (Uk Only)

For your safety please read the following information.

Warning: This appliance must be earthed.

The appliance must be connected to a 220-240 volts 50 cycle AC supply by means of a three pin socket, suitably earthed and should be protected by a 13 amp fuse in the plug or a 15 amp fuse in the consumer unit.

The appliance is supplied with a moulded 13 amp 3 pin mains plug fitted with a 13 amp fuse. Should the fuse require replacement, it must be replaced with a fuse rated at 13 amp and approved to BS1362.

The plug contains a removable fuse cover that must be refitted when the fuse is replaced. In the event of the fuse cover being lost or damaged, the plug must not be used until a replacement cover has been obtained.

If the moulded mains plug is unsuitable for the socket outlet in your home or is removed for any other reason, then the fuse should be removed and the cut off plug disposed of safely to prevent the hazard of electric shock.

There is a danger of electric shock if the cut off plug is inserted into any 13 amp socket outlet.

How to wire a 13 amp plug.
