•
Affix the protective film (packed in the document bag) to the underside of the worktop. The
protective film is to protect the worktop from moisture.
•
Check that the machine is installed such that the door opens freely, otherwise door lock functionality
may be disrupted.
•
Note that the door springs may need adjusting after a cover door has been fitted. Adjust the left
and right door springs equally until the door is evenly balanced.
Drainage connection
See the separate installation instructions for necessary information.
This dishwasher is suitable for installing in a raised recess (to attain an ergonomic working height).
This means that the dishwasher can be placed so that the drainage hose runs to a lower level than
the bottom of the dishwasher, such as by routing it directly to a floor drain. The dishwasher is fitted
with an integrated anti-siphon device to prevent the machine from being emptied of water during the
wash cycle.
The drainage hose can also be connected to a connection nipple on the sink unit's water trap. The
connection nipple must have an internal diameter of at least 14 mm.
The drainage hose may be extended by a maximum of 3 m (the total length of the drainage hose must
not exceed 4.5 m). Any joins and connecting pipes must have an internal diameter of at least 14 mm.
However, the drainage hose should ideally be replaced with a new hose without joins.
No part of the drainage hose may be more than 950 mm above the bottom of the dishwasher.
Attach the drainage hose with a hose clamp. Ensure that the drainage hose has no kinks.
Connection to water supply
Use only the inlet hose supplied with the dishwasher. Do not re-use old or other spare hoses.
The supply pipe must be fitted with a water tap (stopcock). The water tap must be easily accessible,
so that the water can be shut off if the dishwasher has to be moved.
Once the installation is complete, turn on the water tap and allow the pressure to settle for a while.
Check that all connections are watertight.
Connection to cold water supply
Connect the dishwasher to the cold water supply if the building is heated using oil, electricity or gas.
Connection to hot water supply
Connect the dishwasher to the hot water supply (max. 70 °C) if the building is heated using an
energy-efficient means such as district heating, solar power or geothermal power. Choosing a hot
water connection cuts dishwashing times and reduces the dishwasher's energy consumption.
NOTE!
Do not exceed the permitted water supply temperature. Certain materials used in some cookware
cannot withstand strong heat. See Fragile dishes in the chapter Loading the dishwasher.
Electrical connection
Information about the electrical connection can be found on the serial number plate. This specification
must match the electricity supply.
The dishwasher must be connected to an earthed socket.
