ENGLISH

Place the appliance on the floor and install it

under a counter (kitchen worktop or sink).

If a repair is necessary, the appliance must

be easily accessible for the engineer.

Put the appliance adjacent to a water tap

and a drain.

Water connection

This appliance has a special inlet hose

for water stop later defined as aqualock.

Water inlet hose

Connected the appliance to a hot (max. 60°)

or cold water supply.

If the hot water comes from alternative sour-

ces of energy that are more environmentally

friendly (e.g. solar or photovoltaic panels and

aeolian), use a hot water supply to decrease

energy consumption.

Connect the inlet hose to a water tap with an

external thread of 3/4".

Caution! Do not use connection hoses

from an old appliance.

Caution! If you connect the appliance

to new pipes or pipes that are not used

for a long time, we recommend to run the

water for some minutes before you connect

the inlet hose.

Aqualock inlet hose

The inlet hose is a high pressure resistant. It

can hold pressure at maximum 6 MPa. From

external the inlet hose has a sheathing

against eventual damages. If the inner hose

breaks, the water that is in the hose will be-

came dark. You can see it across the special

transparent sheathing. Turn off the water tap

immediately and contact the After Sales Serv-

ice.

For the venting of the dishwasher only water

fill, water drain and power supply cable open-

ings are necessary.

The aqualock inlet

hose is installed with

a safety device to

prevent

accidental

loosening. To discon-

nect the hose:

• Press the lever ( B ).

• Turn the retaining

ring ( A ) anticlock-

wise.

Turn the inlet hose to

the left or the right

to suit the installa-

tion. Tight the lock-

nut correctly to pre-

vent water leaks.

If you use a in-

let hose exten-

sion

the

total

reached length must

be no longer than 4

metres.
