Installation

Cold water connection

Connect the water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas) connector, making sure

that it is fastened tightly in place (see fig.A). Some models are fitted with an

"Aquastop" water supply hose (see fig.B) in which the small filter is already

housed in the threaded end.

If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of

time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear and free of impurities.

If this precaution is not taken, there is a risk that the water inletcan get blocked

and damage the appliance.

Positioning the appliance

Positioning 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 dish-

washer 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 dishwasher, making it level. In any case, the appliance should not be

inclined more than 2˚. If the appliance is level, it will help ensure proper

performance.

Warning

The appliance is to be connected to the water mains

using new hose-sets and that old hose-sets should

not be reused.

Drain hose connection

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4cm, or let it

run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. If necessary, fit a

syphon trap (U-bend) with a connecting piece for the drain hose (fig.C). The

free end of the hose must be at a height between 40 and 100 cm and must not

be immersed in water.

Attention:

The connecting piece for syphon trap (U-bend)

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 correct 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 appro-

priate for the plug, replace the whole cable, rather than using adaptors or the

like as they could cause overheating and burns.

Caution:

The dishwasher plug must be accessible even

when the appliance is installed as a built-in unit

so that maintenance can be done safely.

fig.B

Anti-Flooding protection (for some models)

The dishwasher is equipped with a system that stops the supply of water in the

event of a problem with the water supply hose, or leaks within the unit, in order to

prevent damage to your home. If for any reason the box containing the electrical

components happens to get damaged, remove the plug for the appliance from the

socket immediately. In order to guarantee that the anti-flooding feature operates

properly, the "A" box with water supply hose must be attached to the water supply

tap as shown in fig.B. No other type of connection is acceptable.The water supply

hose must not, under any circumstances, be cut, as it contains electrical parts which

are live. If the length of the hose is not adequate to make a proper connection, the

hose must be replaced with one which is long enough. This hose is available upon

request from specialised retailers and service center.
