Installation
A
Positioning the Appliance
Position 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.
This dishwasher model can be built-in under the one worktop,
and it therefore comes provided with an assembly kit com-
plete with an instructions sheet.
Levelling the Appliance
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing
them in or out) to adjust the height of 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 perfor-
mance.
Cold Water Connection
Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas)
connector and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place
(see figure
1
).
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.
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°
C.
In this case, the wash cycle time will be shortened by about
15 minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced.
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 to your home. If for any reason the box containing
the electrical components happens to get damaged, remove
the plug for the appliance from the socket immediately. In
order to guarantee that the anti-flooding feature operates
properly, the "
A
" box with the water supply hose must be
attached to the water supply tap as shown in Fig.
1
. No other
type of connection is acceptable.
The water supply hose must
not, under any
circumstances, be cut, as it
contains electrical parts
which are live. If the length
of the hose is not adequate
to make a proper
connection, the hose must
be replaced with one
which is long enough. This
hose is available upon
request from specialised
retailers and service
centres.
Drain Hose Connection
Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum
diameter of 4 cm., 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 figure to the right). 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 (located on the stainless steel inner door of the
appliance) and that the electrical system is sized for the
maximum voltage on the rating plate, insert the plug into
an electrical socket which is earthed properly (the earthing
of the appliance is a safety requirement mandated by law).
If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be
connected is not appropriate for the plug, replace the plug,
rather than using adpators or the like as they could cause
overheating and burns.
Should the electricity supply cable be damaged, we
recommend that you only contact authorised Technical Service
Centres for the replacement.
