Indesit IDE 45 manual Installation

Installation

Positioning the Appliance

Position 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 dishwasher 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 height of the dishwasher, making it level. In any case, the appliance should not be inclined more than 2°.

Drain Hose Connection

Fit the drain pipe into a drain line with a minimum diameter of 4 cm or place it over the sink. Avoid restricting or bending it. Use the special plastic elbow provided (see fi- gure) to position it in the best possible way. The part of the pipe marked with the letter A should be between 40 and 100 cm above the ground.

A

If the appliance is level, it will help ensure proper perfor- mance.

This dishwasher model can be built under a single worktop (please read the relevant instruction sheet).

Cold water connection.

Connect the cold water supply hose to a 3/4 gas threaded connection, taking care to screw it tightly onto the tap. If the water hoses are new or have been out of use for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear and free of impurities before making the connection. If this precaution is not taken, the water inlet could get blocked, causing damage to your dishwasher.

Hot Water Connection

The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the house's hot water line (centralised system, heating system), as long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60° C.

In this case, the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15 minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced.

The connection must be made to the hot water line following the same procedures as those for the connection to the cold water line.

Anti-flooding protection

Your dishwasher is provided with a special system which blocks the water supply in the event of leaks inside the appliance. It is further equipped with a water inlet hose that can withstand extremely high pressures and that turns bright red in the event of breakage. Safety in the event of flooding is ensured by the second clear hose that contains the former and thus highlights the latter when it has turned bright red. It is vital that you check it on a regular basis: if you see it has turned bright red, then you know you have to replace it as soon as possible. Call for an authorised technical engineer to come and replace it.

The pipe should not be immersed in water.

Attention: The special plastic hose support 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 the current in the home correspond to those on the rating plate (located on the stainless steel inner door of the appliance) and that the electrical system is sized 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 appropriate for the plug, replace the plug, rather than using adpators or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.

Should the electricity supply cable be damaged, we recommend that you only contact authorised Technical Service Centres for the replacement.
