Any electrical and/or plumbing work required to install
this appliance should be carried out by a qualified
electrician and/or plumber or competent person.

Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.

If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a
drain.

Building-in

This dishwasher is designed to be fitted under a kitchen
counter or worksurface.

Attention!

Carefully follow the instructions on the enclosed template for
building in the dishwasher and fitting the furniture panel.

No further openings for the venting of the dishwasher are
required, but only to let the water fill and drain hose and power
supply cable pass through.

The dishwasher incorporates adjustable feet to allow the
adjustment of the height.

During all operations that involve accessibility to internal
components the dishwasher has to be unplugged.

When inserting the machine, ensure that the water inlet hose,
the drain hose and the supply cable are not kinked or
squashed.

Levelling

Good levelling is essential for correct closure and sealing of
the door.

When the appliance is correctly levelled, the door will not catch
on either side of the cabinet.

If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the
adjustable feet until the machine is perfectly level.

Fixing to the adjacent units

The dishwasher must be secured against tilting.
Therefore make sure that the counter it is fixed under, is
suitably secured to a fixed structure (adjacent kitchen units
cabinets, wall).

Water supply connections 

This dishwasher may be fed with either hot (max. 60°) or cold
water. Nevertheless we advise you a cold water supply.
A hot water supply is not always efficient with very soiled
crockery as it shortens the washing programmes a lot.

For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the
machine’s supply hose is designed to screw onto either a 3/4"
inch gas thread spout or to a purpose made quick-coupling tap
such as the Press-block.

The water pressure must be within the limits given in the
"Technical specifications". Your local Water Authority will
advise you on the average mains pressure in your area. 

The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled
when it is being connected up. 

The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be
turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation by
means of the locknut. The locknut must be correctly fitted
to avoid water leaks

(Attention! NOT all models of

dishwashers have fill and drain hoses provided with locknut. In
this case, this kind of facility is not possible).

If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have
not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a
few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. 

Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been
used in another appliance.

The dishwasher is fitted with safety devices that prevent the
wash water returning into the drinking water system and
comply with the applicable plumbing regulations.

Water inlet hose with safety valve

After connecting the double-walled water inlet hose, the safety
valve is next to the tap. Therefore the water inlet hose is only
under pressure while the water is running. If the water inlet
hose starts to leak during this operation, the safety valve cuts
off the running water.

Please take care when installing the water inlet hose:

- The electrical cable for the safety valve is in the double-

walled water inlet hose. Do not immerse the water inlet hose 
or the safety valve in water.

- If water inlet hose or the safety valve is damaged, remove 

the mains plug immediately.

- A water inlet hose with safety valve must only be replaced by 

your local Service Force engineer.

- Place the water inlet hose in such a way that it is never 

higher than the bottom edge of the safety valve.
