Installation
Positioning the appliance
When deciding on a location for the appliance, please
bear the following points in mind:
• The depth of the unit from front to back is roughly
the same as the majority of work surfaces. This
means there is not enough room for any pipes etc. to
be positioned at the rear of the unit. To facilitate this,
the dishwasher is designed with the water supply
and drain hoses positioned to the right and left for
correct installation. The back rests against the wall.
• The lower plinth for the kitchen base units will need
to be removed for installation.
• The minimum dimensions of the space required for
the appliance are shown in Figure 1.
Provision for the connections
The connections for the appliance are shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3.
Drain hose connection
When routing the drain hose, avoid bending or crimping it. Use the plastic hose guide that comes with the
appliance ensuring that it is securely fastened to the wall.
You can either let the drain hose empty straight into the sink, connect it to a stub from the sink waste 'U'
bend as shown in Figure 2, or to a new drainpipe of at least 40mm diameter with a 'U' bend as shown in
Figure 3. If connecting to a new drainpipe, please note that the free end of the drain hose must be at a
height of between 40-100cm and in a position where it is never immersed in standing water (Figure 3).
Water supply hose connection
The water supply pipe must be terminated to enable you to connect the dishwasher water inlet hose to it. If
the pipe work is new, run water through the pipes to flush out any impurities and residues. Alternatively, but
not ideally, the dishwasher can be connected to a hot water supply. If this option is chosen, the hot water
supply must never exceed 60°C otherwise the crockery may be damaged or the shortened wash cycle will
give inferior results. Before connecting to any water supply insert the small filter supplied in the dishwasher
connector before screwing it to the water supply (Figure 3, page 5).
Electrical connection
Connect the dishwasher to the electricity supply via a suitable 3-pin outlet socket. The socket must be
earthed and have an ON/OFF switch (Figure 2)
Note: The socket and switch must be accessible when the appliance is installed.
