Installation

Cold water connection

Connect the water supply hose to a water outlet tap, making sure that it is

fastened tightly in place (see fig.A). Make sure the rubber washer is seated

firmly in the bottom of the connector.

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.B). 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 your 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.

Anti-Flooding protection (for some models)

Your dishwasher has an overfill protection device which could automatically shut

off the inlet valve and starts the drain pump if the water level in the unit is detected

to be above the normal level.

If this occurs, turn off the main water supply before calling for servicing. If there is

water in the base pan because of an overfill or small leak, the water should be

removed before restarting the dishwasher.

Electrical Connection (Uk Only)

For your safety please read the following information.

Caution:

The dishwasher plug must be accessible even when the appliance is installed

as a built-in unit so that maintence can be done safety.

Warning: This appliance must be earthed.

The appliance must be connected to a 220-240 volts 50 cycle AC supply by

means of a three pin socket, suitably earthed and should be protected by a 13

amp fuse in the plug or a 15 amp fuse in the consumer unit.

The appliance is supplied with a moulded 13 amp 3 pin mains plug fitted with a

13 amp fuse. Should the fuse require replacement, it must be replaced with a

fuse rated at 13 amp and approved to BS1362.

The plug contains a removable fuse cover that must be refitted when the fuse is

replaced. In the event of the fuse cover being lost or damaged, the plug must

not be used until a replacement cover has been obtained.

If the moulded mains plug is unsuitable for the socket outlet in your home or is

removed for any other reason, then the fuse should be removed and the cut off

plug disposed of safely to prevent the hazard of electric shock.

There is a danger of electric shock if the cut off plug is inserted into any 13 amp

socket outlet.

How to wire a 13 amp plug.

As the colours may not correspond with the markings identifying the terminals

in your plug proceed as follows.
