CONNECT TO A DRAINAGE SYSTEM...

WARNING

Connect your dishwasher drain hose to pipes which connect to the foul drain system, and not to surface water drains.

IMPORTANT NOTES

For the correct operation of your dishwasher, it is essential to comply with the following information.

Standpipe

Ensure that the hose is not pushed too far down the standpipe.

If the end of your drain hose is fitted with ‘retaining flaps’, ensure that they are inserted fully into the standpipe. This will prevent the pipe from jumping out during installation and machine use.

DO NOT position the standpipe near an electrical outlet.

ENSURE that the drain hose is not kinked and it is routed as shown in the diagram.

The standpipe should be connected to: a) A discharge stack-pipe

b) An external gulley OR c) A sink waste.

The standpipe should have a bore of at least 38mm (11/2"). It should be installed as shown, have a trap fitted and must dis- charge into the same drain system as your household sink.

It must NOT be connected to a surface water drain.

Sink Waste System

For under sink drainage:

Before connecting the drain hose, remove any internal restrictions - This will prevent a build up of debris which could cause a blockage.

Remove any restrictions from the waste spigot and ensure that the sealing bung is removed. The hose should be routed, such that it is raised to a minimum height of 800mm (31/2")

Note: Ensure the sink outlet pipe has a minimum diameter of 32mm.

1.Untie the end of the GREY drainage hose from the rear of the appliance.

2.Reposition ‘Hooked End Support’ as required along GREY drainage hose.

3.If fitting an under sink waste disposal unit, cut out the membrane, bung or blanking plug.

4.Attach the GREY drainage hose to the under sink waste disposal unit securely, using the clip and rubber tube supplied.

Ensure the drain hose is securely attached, to prevent it coming away while the machine is in use and causing a flood.
