Installation

ISHWASHER

D

Choose where you want to install your
dishwasher, you can place it so that its
sides or back panel are side by side with
furniture or up against the wall. The
dishwasher is provided with water supply
and drain hoses, which can be directed
towards the left or right to facilitate
appropriate installation.

Levelling.

Once the appliance is positioned, adjust
the feet by screwing them in or out
depending on how high you want it and
to level it so that it is horizontal. Make
sure that it is not inclined more than 2
degrees. If the appliance is level, it will
help ensure its correct operation.

Height Adjustment

Insert the appliance into the cutout and
then adjust the height using the screws
located on the front bottom part of the
machine. Use a screwdriver to turn the
screws in the clockwise or anti-clockwise
direction to increase or decrease the
height respectively.

Cold water connection.
Connect the cold water supply hose,
inserting the small filter supplied with the
dishwasher and making sure that it is
fastened tightly in place (see figure 2). If
the water hoses are new or have been
out of use for an extended period of time,
let the water run to make sure it is clear
and free of impurities before making the
connection. If this precaution is not taken,
the water inlet could get blocked, causing
damage to your dishwasher.

Drain hose connection.

WARNING: Connect your dishwasher
drain hose to pipes which connect to the
foul drain system and not to surface
water drains.
IMPORT ANT: For the correct operation
of your dishwasher, it is essential to
comply with the following information:-

Standpipe:

Ensure that the hose is not pushed too
far down the standpipe.
If the end of your drain hose is fitted with
‘retaining flaps’, ensure they are inserted
fully into the standpipe. This will prevent
the pipe from jumping out during
installation and use.

DO NOT position the standpipe near an
electrical outlet.
ENSURE that the drain hose is not
kinked and it is routed as shown in the
diagram.

The standpipe should have a bore of at
least 38mm (11/2”). It should be installed
as shown, have a trap fitted and must
discharge into the same drain system
as your household sink.
It MUST NOT be connected to a surface
water drain.

Sink Waste System:

For under sink drainage:
Before connecting the drain hose,
remove any internal restrictions - This
will prevent a build up of debris which
could cause a blockage.
Remove any restrictions from the waste
spigot and ensure that the sealing bung
is removed. The hose should be routed,
such that it is raised to a minimum height
of 800mm (31/2”).

NOTE: Ensure the sink outlet pipe
has a minimum diamtere of 32mm.

1. Untie the end of the GREY
drainage hose from the rear of the
appliance.

2. Reposition the ‘Hooked End
Support’ as required along the GREY
drainage hose.

3. If fitting an under sink waste
disposal unit, cut out the membrane,
bung or blanking plug.

4. Attach the GREY drainage hose to
the under sink waste disposal unit
securely , using the clip and rubber
tube supplied.

Ensure the drain hose is
securely attached, to prevent it
coming away while the machine
is in use and causing a flood.
