Water outlet hose connection

The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following
ways: 

1. To the sink outlet spigot, securing it to the underside of the 

work surface. This will prevent waste water from the sink 
running into the machine. 

2. Hooked over the edge of the sink using the special curved 

plastic guide 

(if provided with the machine).

3. To a stand pipe provided with vent-hole, minimum internal 

diameter 4 cm. 

The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm
(minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the
dishwasher. 

The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the
dishwasher 

Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent
or slow down the discharge of water. 

The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is
draining as this could cause the water to syphon back into the
machine. 

If you use a drain hose extension it must be no longer than 2
metres and its internal diameter must be no smaller than the
diameter of the hose provided. 

Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for
connections to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the
diameter of the hose provided. 

Attention!
Our appliances are supplied with a security device to protect
against the return of dirty water back into the machine. 
If the spigot of your sink has a "no return valve" incorporated
this can prevent the correct draining of your dishwasher. 
We advise you therefore to remove it.

Electrical connection

This appliance must be earthed.
The manufacturer declines any responsibility should this
safety measure not be observed.

If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not suitable for the
socket, it must be cut off and the appropriate plug fitted.

Important
The wires on the mains lead are coloured in accordance with
the following code:

Green and Yellow

- Earth

Blue

- Neutral

Brown

- Live

If you fit your own plug, the colours of the wires in the mains
lead of your appliance may not correspond with the markings
identifying the terminals in your plug.

Proceed as follows:

1. Connect the Green and Yellow (earth) wire to the terminal 

in the plug which is marked with the letter "E" or the earth 
symbol 

or coloured green and yellow.

2. Connect the Blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug 

which is marked with the letter "N" or coloured black.

3. Connect the Brown (live) wire to the terminal in the plug 

which is marked with the letter "L" or coloured red.

The plug moulded onto the lead incorporates a 13amp BSI362
fuse. Only ASTA or BSI fuses should be used.

The plug must not be used if the fuse cover/carrier is lost. The
cover/carrier is indicated by the coloured insert at the base of
the plug.

A replacement cover/carrier must be obtained from your local
Service Force Centre. 

To isolate the dishwasher from mains, remove the mains plug.

Important!
The plug must still be accessible after the appliance
has been installed.

The appliance should not be connected to the
electrical supply by means of an extension cable.

In case that the electrical cable has to be replaced,
please contact your local Service Force Centre.
