Water connection

Water inlet connection

This appliance may be fed with either hot (maximum 60 °C) or cold water. Nevertheless we advise you use a cold water supply. A hot water supply is not always efficient with heavily soiled crockery as it shortens the washing programmes a lot. For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the appliance inlet hose is designed to screw onto a 3/4" 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 data’. 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.

The appliance features inlet 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.

If the appliance 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. 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.

Caution! Do not use inlet and drain hoses which have previously been used on another appliance.

Water drain connection

The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following ways:

To the sink outlet spigot, securing it to the underside of the work surface. This will prevent waste water from the sink running into the appliance.

To a stand pipe provided with venthole, minimum internal diameter 4 cm.

max 85 cm

cm

min 40 cm

max 400

 

The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the appliance.

Ensure the drain hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent or slow down the discharge of water.

The sink plug must not be in place when the appliance is draining as this could cause the water to syphon back into the appliance.

If you use a drain hose extension, the internal diameter must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided. Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for connections to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.
