Positioning the Dishwasher
The dishwasher should be aligned to the front of the adjacent
cabinets, with allowance made for the door thickness. The
dishwasher has water supply and drain hoses that can be
positioned on either to the left or the right.
Before installing the dishwasher into a kitchen cabinet,
holes must not be drilled into the sides, or door, to avoid
compromising the performance and operation of the
appliance.
A plastic self-adhesive anti-condensation strip is supplied
with the dishwasher. Fix the strip to the underside of the
worktop, along the front edge (Fig.5-1).
Connect up the cold water supply, the drain hose and the
electrical connections (see below) then slide the dishwasher
into the cabinet opening. Make sure the unit sits on the
plastic skids supplied.
Cold Water Connection
Connect the water supply hose (supplied loose) to the cold
water inlet at the rear. Connect the other end to a ¾“ BSP tap
connector (Fig.5-2). Make sure that the washers are in place
and that it is fastened securely in place.
IMPORTANT:
If the water pipes are new or have not been
used for an extended period of time, run the water for
a while to make sure that the water is clear and free of
impurities BEFORE connecting to the dishwasher. Failure
to carry out this precaution may lead to the water inlet
becoming blocked and causing damage the appliance.
Drain Hose Connection
Connect the drain hose the water outlet. Insert the hose into
a drainpipe with a minimum diameter of 40 mm, or let it
run into a sink, making sure to avoid bending or crimping. If
necessary, fit a siphon trap (U-bend) with a connecting piece.
The free end of the hose must be at a height of between 40-
100 cm and must not be immersed in water (Fig.5-3).

WARNING! The connecting piece for the siphon trap
(U-bend) must be solidly fastened to the wall to
prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing
water to spill outside the drain (Fig.5-4).
