Wash Cycles).

• Select a wash cycle that is suited to the

type of crockery and to the soil level using the Table of Wash Cycles:

- For dishes with a normal soil level, use

the Eco wash cycle, which guarantees low

energy and water consumption levels.

- If the load is smaller than usual activate the Half Load option

Installation

If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it in an upright position; if absolutely necessary, it may be tilted onto its back.

Connecting the water supply

Adaptation of the water supply for installation should only

be performed by a qualified technician.

The water inlet and outlet hoses may be positioned towards the right or the left in order to achieve the best possible installation.

Make sure the dishwasher does not bend or squash the

hoses.

Connecting the water inlet hose

• To a 3/4” gas cold or hot water connection point (max.

60°C).

• Run the water until it is perfectly clear.

• Screw the inlet hose tightly into position and turn off the

tap.

If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist store or an authorised technician

The water pressure must be within the values indicated in the Technical Data table - otherwise the dishwasher may be function properly.

Make sure the hose is not bent or compressed.

(see Assistance)

Connecting the water outlet hose

Connect the outlet hose to a drain duct with a minimum

diameter of 2 cm. (A)

The outlet hose connection must be at a height ranging from 40 to 80 cm from the floor or surface where the dishwasher rests.

MAX 80 cm

MIN 40 cm

Before connecting the water outlet hose to the sink drain,

remove the plastic plug (B).

Anti-flooding protection

To ensure floods do not occur, the dishwasher:

- is provided with a special system which blocks the water supply in the event of anomalies or leaks from inside the appliance.

Some models are also equipped with the supplementary

safety device New Acqua Stop*, which guarantees antiflooding protection even in the event of a supply hose rupture.

WARNING: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE!

Under no circumstances should the water inlet hose be cut

as it contains live electrical parts.

Electrical connection

Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket, make sure that:

• The socket is earthed and complies with current

regulations;

• the socket can withstand the maximum load of the

appliance as shown on the data plate located on the inside of the door

(see chapter Description of the appliance);

• The power supply voltage falls within the values indicated

on the data plate on the inside of the door.

• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance.

Positioning and levelling

1. Position the dishwasher on a level sturdy floor. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position. If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will be more stable and much less likely to move or cause vibrations and noise while it is operating.

2. Before recessing the dishwasher, stick the adhesive transparent strip* under the wooden shelf in order to protect it from any condensation which may form.

3. Place the dishwasher so that its sides or back panel are in contact with the adjacent cabinets or the wall. This appliance can also be recessed under a single worktop*

Assembly instruction sheet)

4*. To adjust the height of the rear foot, turn the red hexagonal bushing on the lower central part at the front of the dishwasher using a hexagonal spanner with an opening of 8 mm. Turn the spanner in a clockwise direction to increase the height and in an anticlockwise direction to decrease it.
