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 cabi-
nets or wall.The dishwasher is equipped with
water supply and drain hoses that can be po-
sitioned 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 ap-
pliance should not be inclined more than 2
.
If the appliance is level,it will help ensure
proper performance.
Cold Water Connection
Connect the cold water supply hose to a
threaded 3/4(gas)connector ,inserting the
small filter supplied with the dishwasher and
making sure that it is fastened tightly in place
(see figure1/A).SOme models have an
"Acquablock" water supply pipe (see fig.1/B)
with filter in the threaded inlet.
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.
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 special plastic support that
comes with the appliance (see fig .C).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 sol-
idly 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 rat-
ing plate,insert the plug into an electrical
socket which is earthed properly (the earthing
of the appliance is a safety requirement man-
dated by law).
If the electrical socket to which the appliance
must beconnected is not appropriate for the
plug,replace the plug ,rather than using
adpators or the like as they could cause over-
heating and burns.
Installation
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 short-
ened by about 15 minutes and the wash effi-
ciency 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.
