4. Installation
4-1.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.
4-2.Leveling 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
appliance is level, it will help ensure proper performance.
4-3.Cold water connection
Connect the water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas) connector,
making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see fig.A).
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 inletcan get blocked and damage the appliance.
4-4.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. If necessary, fit a syphon trap (U-bend) with a
connecting piece for the drain hose (fig.B). The free end of the hose must be at a height between
40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in water.
Warning:
The appliance is to be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets and that old
hose-sets should not be reused.
Attention:
The connecting piece for syphon trap (U-bend) must be securely fastened to the wall to
prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to spill outside the drain.
