Drainage connection
This dishwasher is suitable for installing in a raised recess (to attain
an ergonomic working height). This means that the dishwasher can be
placed so that the drainage hose runs to a lower level than the bottom
of the dishwasher, such as by routing it directly to a floor drain. The
dishwasher is fitted with an integrated anti-siphon device to prevent
the machine from being emptied of water during the wash cycle.
min.
14 mm
Max. 950 mm
The drainage hose can also be connected to a connection nipple on
the sink unit’s water trap. The connection nipple must have an internal
diameter of at least 14 mm.
The drainage hose may be extended by a maximum of 2.5 m (the total
length of the drainage hose must not exceed 4.5 m). Any joins and
connecting pipes must have an internal diameter of at least 14 mm.
However, the drainage hose should ideally be replaced with a new
hose without joins.
No part of the drainage hose may be more than 950 mm above the
bottom of the dishwasher.
Attach the drainage hose with a hose clamp. Ensure that the drainage
hose has no kinks.
Connection to water supply
Use only the inlet hose supplied with the dishwasher. Do not re-use
old or other spare hoses.
The supply pipe must be fitted with a water tap (stopcock). The water
tap must be easily accessible, so that the water can be shut off if the
dishwasher has to be moved.
Once the installation is complete, turn on the water tap and allow the
pressure to settle for a while. Check that all connections are watertight.
Connection to cold water supply
Connect the dishwasher to the cold water supply if the building is
heated using oil, electricity or gas.
Connection to hot water supply
Connect the dishwasher to the hot water supply (max. 70 °C) if the
building is heated using an energy-efficient means such as district
heating, solar power or geothermal power. Choosing a hot water
connection cuts dishwashing times and reduces the dishwasher's
energy consumption.
NOTE!
Do not exceed the permitted water supply temperature. Certain
materials used in some cookware cannot withstand high heat. See
Fragile dishes in the chapter Loading the dishwasher.
NOTE!
The water pressure must be between 0.03 and 1.0 MPa.
Connecting a dishwasher to the water supply via certain types of
pressure limiting valves may restrict the water supply! This may cause
the error message “Water inlet fault” to be displayed.
If the water pressure is higher than 1.0 MPa a pressure limiting valve
must be fitted.
Electrical connection
Information about the electrical connection can be found on the
compliance plate. This specification must match the electricity supply.
The dishwasher must be connected to an earthed wall socket.
The electric wall socket must be placed outside of the installation area
to be easily accessible after installing the dishwasher. Do not use an
extension cord!
NOTE!
Repairs and maintenance must be carried out by a qualified
professional.
