Installation

Fitting under a counter

Warning! Make sure that mains plug is

disconnected from the mains socket
during installation.

Put the appliance adjacent to a water tap and
a water drain. Remove the appliance work­top to install it under a sink unit or a kitchen
worktop. Make sure that the dimensions of
the recess agree with the given dimensions.

Do these steps to remove the appliance
worktop:

1. Remove the rear screws (1).

2. Pull the worktop from the behind the ap­pliance (2).

3. Lift the worktop and move it from the front
slots (3).

Water connection

Water inlet hose

Connected the appliance to a hot (max. 60°)
or cold water supply.
If the hot water comes from alternative sour­ces 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.

The water pressure must be in the limits (refer
to 'Technical data'). Make sure that the local
water authority gives you the average mains
pressure in your area.
Make sure that there are no kinks in the water
inlet hose and that the water inlet hose is not
squashed or entangled.
Fit the locknut correctly to prevent water
leaks.

Caution! Do not connect the appliance
to new pipes or pipes that are not used
for a long time. Let the water run for
some minutes, then connect the inlet
hose.

4. Use the adjustable feet to adjust the level
of the appliance.

5. Install the appliance under the kitchen
worktop. Make sure that there are no
kinks in the water hoses and that the wa­ter hoses are not squashed.

If a repair is necessary, the appliance must
be easily accessible for the engineer. Install
the appliance worktop to the appliance if you
want to use the dishwasher as a freestanding
appliance.
The plinth on freestanding appliance is not
adjustable.

Adjusting the level of the appliance

Make sure that the appliance is level to close
and seal the door correctly. If the level of the
appliance is correct, the door does not catch
on the sides of the cabinet. If the door does
not close correctly, loosen or tighten the ad­justable feet until the appliance is level.

The water inlet hose is double-walled and
has an inner mains cable and a safety valve.
The water inlet hose is under pressure only
while the water is running. If there is a leak in
the water inlet hose, the safety valve inter­rupts the running water.
Be careful when you connect the water inlet
hose:

• Do not put the water inlet hose or the safe-

ty valve in water.

• If the water inlet hose or the safety valve is

damaged, immediately disconnect the
mains plug from the mains socket.

• Only let the Service Force Centre replace

the water inlet hose with safety valve.

Water drain hose

1. Connect the water drain hose to the sink
spigot and attach it under the work sur­face. This prevents that the waste water
from the sink goes back into the appli­ance.

2. Connect the water drain hose to a stand
pipe with vent-hole (minimum internal di­ameter 4 cm).

max 85 cm

min 40 cm

max 400 cm

Make sure that the drain hose is not bent or
squashed to prevent that the water drains
does not drain correctly.
Remove the sink plug when the appliance
drains the water to prevent that the water
goes back into the appliance.
A drain hose extension must not be longer
than 2 m. The internal diameter must not be
smaller than the diameter of the hose.

If you connect the water drain hose to a trap
spigot under the sink, remove the plastic
membrane (A). If you do not remove the
membrane, remaining food can cause a
blockage in the drain hose spigot

The appliance has a security feature to
prevent that dirty water goes back into
the appliance. If, the spigot of the sink
has a 'non-return valve', this valve can
cause the appliance to drain incorrectly.
Remove the non-return valve.

Caution! Make sure that the water
couplings are tight to prevent water
leakage.

responsible if you do not follow these
safety precautions.
Ground the appliance according to safe­ty precautions.
Make sure that the rated voltage and
type of power on the rating plate agree
with the voltage and the power of the lo­cal power supply.
Always use a correctly installed shock­proof socket.
