• CONNECTING TO THE WATER SUPPLY
Danger:
The
symbol indicates that
the hose is fitted with an electrical device
for cutting off the water supply (depending
on the model). Do not leave this hose in
water and do not cut it.
NB:
Any connection to a water conduit
necessarily involves the risk of a leak occur-
ring, whatever the precautions taken.
Therefore, always close the water tap when
you are not using your machine.
This dishwasher can be supplied with cold
water or hot water up to a maximum of 60°C.
When supplying with hot water, check that
your original hose allows such connection
(red marking on the hose). However, we
recommend that you connect to the cold
water supply. Your appliance is fitted with a
supply hose 1.50m long.
Connect the hose to a tap with a threaded
end, diameter 20/27 (3/4" BSP).
Check that the water pressure does not
exceed the values below:
Flow rate: 10 L/min (1 L/min minimum)
Pressure: 1 to 10 bars (0.1 - 1 MPa)
.
If the water pressure is too high, please fit a
pressure regulator. Please contact your local
Water Authority for advice on the water pres-
sure in your region.
Warning:
If you use a self-piercing tap, check
that there is sufficient water flow.
Check that the hose seal is present and that
the connection is tight
.
Do not re-use any previously used hoses for
making the connection.
Avoid any kinks or constrictions in the hose,
which could prevent the water from passing
or slow down its flow, particularly when buil-
ding in the appliance under the worktop
.
If the appliance is connected to new pipes or
pipes that have not been used for a certain
length of time, let the water run for a few
minutes before connecting the water hose to
avoid and deposits of sand or rust that could
block the water hose’s filter.
