Connecting the inlet hose
1
The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed or entangled when it is being
connected.
Connect the threaded hose fitting (ISO 2281:2000) on the water inlet hose to a
tap with an external thread (¾ inch). The inlet hose is fitted with either a plastic
or a metal nut:
–
Only
tighten the nut
hand tight
.
Then do a visual check for water tightness. (Make sure that the tap is not drip
ping.)

So that access to the tap in the kitchen is not restricted by the use of the dish
washer, we recommend installing an additional tap, or fitting a Tbranch to the
existing tap.
Lowest permitted water pressure:
0,1 MPa ( = 1 bar = 10 N/cm

)
Consult your plumber if the water pressure is
less than 0,1 MPa.
Highest permitted water pressure:
1 MPa ( = 10 bar = 100 N/cm

)
If the water pressure is greater than
1 MPa, a pressure reduction valve must be used
(available from your dealer).
