7 Make any final adjustments to the feet (the dishwasher may
lean no more than 5 mm) and tighten the lock nuts on the front
feet.
If you want to install your dishwasher freestanding, skip steps 2,
3 and 6 above.
Drainage connection
When the drainage hose is routed to a connection nipple on the
sink unit's water trap (see illustration 1), please note that the hose
must be attached at the same height as the underside of the sink
unit, otherwise dishwater from the sink may flow back into the
dishwasher. The drainage hose is threaded onto the cone-shaped
connection pipe on the sink unit's water trap. The cone-shaped
pipe must be cut to an internal diameter of at least 14 mm. For
other connection alternatives, see illustrations 2 and 3.
The drainage hose may be extended by a maximum of 3 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.
Ensure that the drainage hose has no kinks.
NOTE!
The hose must be attached at the same height as the underside
of the sink.

Connection to water supply
Use only the supply hose provided with the dishwasher. Do not
re-use old hoses or other spare supply hoses.
The supply pipe must be fitted with a stopcock. The stopcock
must be easily accessible, so that the water can be shut off if the
dishwasher has to be moved.
Once the installation is complete, the stopcock should be opened
to allow the pressure to settle for a while and to check that all
connections are tight.
Connect to cold water...
If you use oil or electricity to heat your home.
Connect to hot water (max. 70 °C)...
If you use district heating, solar power or geothermal power to
heat your home. Choosing a hot water connection cuts
programme times and reduces the dishwasher's electricity
consumption.
Electrical connection
Information about the electrical connection can be found on the
serial number plate. This specification must match the electricity
supply.
Dishwashers fitted with a plug 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.
Screwing the dishwasher into place
After fastening the machine, check that the front feet still touch
the floor.
