Installation instructions

Any electrical and/or plumbing work required to install

this appliance should be carried out by a qualified

electrician and/or plumber or competent person.

Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.

If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a

drain.

Fitting under a counter

(kitchen worktop or sink)

By removing the machine's worktop, you can install it under a

close fitting sink unit or a pre-existing top, providing the

dimensions of the recess correspond to those shown in the

picture.

Proceed as follows:

Remove the machine's worktop by unscrewing the two rear

retaining screws, pull the worktop from the back of the

machine and slide out the front slots, lifting the worktop.

Insert the machine after adjusting height and levelling with the

adjustable feet. When inserting the machine, ensure that the

water inlet and drain hoses are not kinked or squashed.

During all operations that involve accessibility to internal

components the dishwasher has to be unplugged.

Be sure that once the appliance has been installed, it is easily

accessible for the service engineer in the event that a repair is

required.

If the dishwasher is later used as a free-standing appliance,

the original worktop must be re-mounted.

The plinth on free-standing appliances is not adjustable.

Levelling

Good levelling is essential for correct closure and sealing of

the door.

When the appliance is correctly levelled, the door will not catch

on either side of the cabinet.

If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the

adjustable feet until the machine is perfectly level.

Water supply connections

This dishwasher must be plumbed into a cold water supply.

For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the

machine's supply hose is designed to screw onto a 3/4" inch

gas thread spout.

The water pressure must be within the limits given in the

"Technical specifications". Your local Water Authority will

advise you on the average mains pressure in your area.

The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled

when it is being connected.

The inlet hose must hang down vertically from the supply tap.

The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be

turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation by

means of the locknut. The locknut must be correctly fitted

to avoid water leaks. (Attention! NOT all models of

dishwashers have fill and drain hoses provided with locknut. In

this case, this kind of facility is not possible).

If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have

not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a

few minutes before connecting the inlet hose.

Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been

used with another appliance.

The dishwasher is fitted with safety devices that prevent the

wash water returning into the drinking water system and

comply with the applicable plumbing regulations.
