Drainage connection
See the separate installation instructions for necessary information.
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. The hose must not be routed directly to a
floor drain or the like. In such cases, the hose can act as a siphon and
empty the dishwasher.
The hose must always discharge at least 350 mm above the bottom
of the machine.
Attach the drainage hose with a hose clamp. Ensure that the drainage
hose has no kinks.
NOTE!
When the drainage hose is routed to a connection nipple on the sink
unit's water trap, the hose must be attached at the same height as
the underside of the sink unit (1), otherwise dishwater from the sink
may flow back into the dishwasher. There are other connection
alternatives (2, 3). The water trap must be ventilated.

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 strong heat. See
Fragile dishes in the chapter Loading the dishwasher.
Electrical connection
Information about the electrical connection can be found on the serial
number plate. This specification must match the electricity supply.
The dishwasher must be connected to an earthed 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 relating to safety or performance must be
carried out by a qualified professional.
