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 heatproof, scratchproof and stainproof (fig. 5).
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 work top of the dishwasher by unscrewing the screws under the rear edge of the top (fig. 6a).
IMPORTANT
After removing the work top, the screws MUST BE screwed again under the rear edge of the top (fig. 6b).
■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).
WATER SOFTENER UNIT
Depending on the source of the supply, water contains varying amounts of limestone and minerals which are deposited on the dishes leaving whitish stains and marks.
The higher the level of these minerals present in the water, the harder the water is. The dishwasher is fitted with a water softener unit which, through the use of special regenerating salt, supplies softened water for washing the dishes. The degree of hardness of your water can be obtained from your water supply company.
Regulating the water softener
The water softener can treat water with a hardness level of up to 90°fH (French grading) or 50°dH (German grading) through 8 settings.
The settings are listed in the table below:
*The softener unit is set in the factory at level 4 (d4) as this satisfies the requirements of the majority of users.
Regulate the setting of your water softener unit according to the degree of hardness of your water as follows:
IMPORTANT
The dishwasher must be ALWAYS off before start this procedure.
1. Hold down the FIRST "PROGRAMME" |
button (from the left) and at the same |
time switch on the dishwasher by |
pressing the "ON/OFF" button (a brief |
audible signal will sound). |
2. Keep the "PROGRAMME" button |
pressed for at least 5 seconds, UNTIL |
