Permanent connection

WARNING:

A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure that the cut off plug is disposed of safely.

The plug must still be accessible after the appliance has been installed.

The appliance should not be connected to the electrical supply by means of an extension cable.

In case that the electrical cable has to be replaced, please contact our extended warranty administrators on 0870 0107887 who will give you details for your local Service Force repair agent.

Important!

If the mains supply cable is damaged it must be replaced; contact our warranty administrators on 0870 010 7887 who will give you details for your local Service Force repair agent.

Permanent connection

In the case of permanent connection it is necessary that you install a double pole switch between the appliance and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap of 3mm between the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current electrical regulations.

The switch must not break the yellow and green earth cable at any point.

Any electrical and/or plumbing work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician and/or plumber or competent person.

Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.

If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a drain.

Water supply connections

We recommend that this dishwasher is connected to your cold water supply.

For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the machine’s supply hose is designed to screw onto either a 3/4" inch gas thread spout or to a purpose made quick-coupling tap such as the Press-block.

The water pressure must be within the limits given in the "Technical specifications" shown on page 6.Your local Water Authority will advise you on the average mains pressure in your area.

The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled when it is being connected up.

The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation by means of the locknut. The locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. (Important! NOT all models of dishwashers have fill and drain hoses provided with locknut. In this case, this kind of facility is not possible).

If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose.

DO NOT use connection hoses which have previously been used for an old appliance.

This appliance has been fitted with safety features which will prevent the water used in the appliance from returning back into the drinking water system.This appliance complies with the applicable plumbing regulations.

Water inlet hose with safety valve

After connecting the double-walled water inlet hose, the safety valve is next to the tap.Therefore the water inlet hose is only under pressure while the water is running. If the water inlet hose starts to leak during this operation, the safety valve cuts off the running water.

Please take care when installing the water inlet hose: - The electrical cable for the safety valve is in the double-

walled water inlet hose. Do not immerse the water inlet hose or the safety valve in water.

-If water inlet hose or the safety valve is damaged, remove the mains plug immediately.

-A water inlet hose with safety valve must only be replaced by a specialist or by the Service Force Centre.

-Place the water inlet hose in such a way that it is never higher than the bottom edge of the safety valve.
