Installation
Positioning the Appliance
Positioning the appliance in the desired location.The back should
rest against the wall behind it,and the sides,along the adjacent
cabinets or wall.The dishwasher is equipped with water supply
and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to
facilitate proper installation.
Levelling the Appliance
Once the appliance is positioned,adjust the feet (screwing them
in or out) to adjust the dishwasher,making it level.In any case,
the appliance should not be inclined more than 2
.If the appli-
ance is level,it will help ensure proper performance.
Cold Water Connection
Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4(gas)con-
nector and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see
figure1).
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended
period of time,let the water run to make sure that the water is
clear and free of impurities.If this precaution is not taken,there is
a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and damage the
appliance.
The connection must be made to the hot water line following the
same procedures as those for the connection to the cold water
line.
Anti-Flooding Protection
The dishwasher is equipped with a system that stops the supply of
water in the event of a problem with the water supply hose,or leaks
within the unit,in order to prevent damage from your home.In
order to guarantee that the anti-flooding feature operates properly,
the water supply hose must be attached to the water supply tap
as shown in Fig .1. The water supply hose must not,under any
circumstances,be cut,as it contains electrical parts which are live.
Drain Hose Connection
Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter
of 4cm,or let it run into the sink,making sure to avoid bending or
crimping it.Use the speical plastic support that comes with the
appliance (see Fig.2).The free end of the hose must be at a
height between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in
water.
Attention:
The special plastic hose support must be solidly fastened to the
wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to
spill outside the drain.
Electrical Connection
After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for the
current in the home correspond to those on the rating plate
insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly.
(This appliance must be earthed.)
Hot Water Connection
The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the
house's hot water line (centralised system,heating system),as long
as it does not exceed a temperature of 60
.
In this case,the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15
minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced.
Important: Any electrical or plumbing work required to in-
stall this appliance, should be carried out by a qualified
electrician or qualified plumber.
Ensure that the plug is accessible after installation.

Alternative drain hose connection to the sink outlet siphon,securing it with a cup if necessary.The sink plug must not be in p
lace when the
machine is draining,as this could cause the water to siphon back into the machine.
