Unpacking
• Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.
• If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a
drain.
Water 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 inlet hose is fitted with either a plastic or a metal nut:
– Only tighten the plastic nut hand tight.
– You must tighten the metal nut using a tool.
Then do a visual check for water tightness (make sure that
the tap is not dripping).
The water pressure must be within the limits given in the
"Technical Data" shown on page 6. Your local Water Au-
thority will advise you on the average mains pressure in
your area.
The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entan-
gled 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 mod-
els 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 wa-
ter for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose.
DO NOT use connection hoses which have previous-
ly 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.

So that access to the tap in the kitchen is not re-
stricted by the use of the dishwasher, we recom-
mend installing an additional tap, or fitting a T-branch
to the existing tap.
Water outlet hose connection
Water Drainage
Drain hose
1
The drain hose must not be kinked, crushed or en-
tangled.
Connecting the drain hose:
– Maximum permitted height: 1 metre.
– Minimum required height: 40 cm above the bottom
edge of the appliance.
Extension hoses
• Extension hoses are available from your local Service
Force Centre. To ensure that the function of the appliance
is not impeded, the internal diameter of extension hoses
must be 19 mm.
• Extension hoses must not be laid more than a maximum
distance of 4 metres horizontally; the maximum permit-
ted height for the connection for the drain hose is then
85 cm.
Sink outlet connection
• The outlet of the drain hose (ø 19 mm) fits all commonly
available sink outlet types. The outer diameter of the sink
outlet connection must be at least 15 mm.
• The drain hose must be fixed to the sink outlet connec-
tion using the hose clamp supplied.
Water drainage if the dishwasher is built-in at high
level
If the dishwasher is installed at a high level, and the drain
hose connection is less than 30 cm from the lower edge of
the appliance, adapter kit ET 111099520 must be fitted by
your local Service Force Centre.
Anti-flood System
For protection from water damage, the dishwasher is
equipped with a anti-flood system.
In the event of a fault, the safety valve in the water inlet
hose immediately interrupts the supply of water to the ap-
pliance and the drain pump is activated. In this way water
can neither escape nor overflow. The remaining water in
the appliance is automatically pumped out.
