INSTALLATION (Technical notes)
After unpacking, adjust the height of the dishwasher.
For the dishwasher to work correctly it must be level. Adjust the feet so that the machine does not tilt by more than 2 degrees. If it you need to move the machine after removing the packaging, do not try to lift it by the bottom of the door.
Open the door slightly and lift the machine by holding on the top (Fig. 8).
Important: when the appliance is located on a carpet floor, attention must be paid to ensure that there is no obstruction to the bottom vents.
Make sure that the plug on the appliance remains accessible after installation.
This appliance complies with Directives 89/336/EEC, 73/23/EEC and following changes.
Electrical connection

“WARNING”
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
Fuses and plugs
This appliance should be used only on a socket with a minimum rating of 13 Amp.
Our
Any replacement should be exactly the same.
If the fuse cover is lost, do not use the plug until it is replaced. A correct replacement fuse cover (obtainable from your dealer or Electricity Board) must be the same colour as shown or named on the insert on the base of the plug.
Water connection
The inlet and drain hoses can be directed to left or right.
The dishwasher can be connected to either cold or hot water, as long as it is no hotter than 60 °C.
Water pressure must be between 0,08 MPa and 0,8 MPa. If the pressure is below the minimum consult our service department for advice.
The inlet hose must be connected to a tap so that the water supply can be cut off when the machine is not in use (fig.1 B).
The dishwasher is fitted with 3/4" threaded connector (fig. 2).
Connect inlet hose A to water tap B with a 3/4" attachment making sure that it has been properly tightened.
If it is necessary to lengthen the inlet pipe, an extension pipe can be fitted.
If limescale deposits or sand are present in the water, it is advisable to obtain the appropriate filter, art. 9226085, from the Service Centre (fig. 3).
The filter D must be inserted between the tap B and the inlet hose A, remembering to fit the washer C.
If the dishwasher is connected to new pipes or to pipes which have not been in use for a long time run water through for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. In this way no deposits of sand or rust will clog up the water inflow filter.
Installation in fitted kitchens
Fitting between existing cabinets
The height of the dishwasher, 85 cm, has been designed in order to allow the machine to be fitted between existing cabinets of the same height in modern fitted kitchens. The feet can be adjusted so that correct height is reached. The laminated top of the machine does not require any particular care since it is heat- proof, scratchproof and stainproof (fig. 5).
The work top can be easily adjusted to line it with the top of existing cabinets; this is done by moving it by 5 mm each time up to a maximum of 25 mm.
To adjust it, unscrew the two screws at the back and fix the top in the position required (fig. 6).
Underneath existing work top
(when fitting beneath a work top)
In most modern fitted kitchens there is only one single work top under which cabinets and electrical appliances are fitted.
In this case remove the working top of the dishwasher by unscrewing the screws under the rear edge of the top (fig. 6).
The height will then be reduced to 82 cm, as scheduled by the International Regulations (ISO) and the dishwasher will fit perfectly under the kitchen working top (fig. 7).

Connecting the outlet hose
The outlet hose should disharge into a stand- pipe, making sure that there are no kinks (fig. 4). The standpipe must be at least 40 cm above floor level and it must have an internal diameter of at least 4 cm. It is advisable to fit an
If necessary the outlet hose can be extended up to 2,6 m, provided that it is kept at a maximum height of 85 cm above floor level.
The hose can be hooked over the side of the sink (it must not be immersed in water, in order to prevent water from being syphoned back to the machine when this is in operation) (fig. 4 y). When installing the appliance under a worktop the hose pipe clamp must be attached to the wall in the highest possible position under the worktop (fig. 4 z).
Check that there are no kinks in the inlet and outlet hoses.
Opening the door
Put your hand into the recess and push upwards. If the machine comes open while it is working, an electrical safety device automatically switches everything off.
For the machine to work properly, the door should not be opened while it is in opera- tion.
