10. HINTS AND TIPS

10.1 General

The following hints will ensure optimal
cleaning and drying results in daily use
and also help to protect the environment.

• Remove larger residues of food from

the dishes into the waste bin.

• Do not pre-rinse dishes by hand.

When needed, use the prewash

programme (if available) or select a

programme with a prewash phase.

• Always use the whole space of the

baskets.

• When loading the appliance, make

sure that the dishes can be

completely reached and washed by

the water released from the spray arm

nozzles. Make sure that items do not

touch or cover each other.

• You can use dishwasher detergent

and rinse aid separately or you can

use the multi-tablets. Follow the

instructions written on the packaging.

• Select the programme according to

the type of load and degree of soil.

With the ECO programme you have

the most efficient use of water and

energy consumption for crockery and

cutlery with normal soil.

10.2 Using rinse aid and detergent

• Only use rinse aid and detergent for

dishwasher. Other products can

cause damage to the appliance.

• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve

with short programs. To prevent

detergent residues on the tableware,

we recommend that you use the

tablets with long programs.

• Do not use more than the correct

quantity of detergent. Refer to the

End of programme

When the programme is completed and
you open the door, the appliance is

14. INSTALLATION

Install the appliance under a kitchen
counter.

Put the appliance adjacent to a water tap
and a water drain.

For the venting of the appliance only
water hoses and mains cable openings
are necessary.

14.1 Adjusting the level of the appliance

A correct adjustment of the level of the
appliance allows the door to close and
seal correctly.

If the door does not close correctly,
loosen or tighten the adjustable feet to
level the appliance.

14.2 Water inlet hose

Connect the inlet hose to a water tap
with an external BSP thread spout of
3/4''.

For best washing performance it is
recommended to connect the appliance
to a cold water supply.

Energy savings can be made by
connecting the appliance to a Solar
water system and using economy
options, however the water temperature
must not exceed 60° C.

Inlet water supply

• Water pressure: 800 kPa max - 50
kPa min.

• Water flow rate 10 L / minute min.

• If water pressure is in excess of 800
kPa, a pressure reducing valve should
be used. Check for leaks.

• If water temperature is in excess of
60° C, a tempering valve should be
used. Check for leaks.

CAUTION!

Always use new hoses when
you connect the appliance to
the water mains. Old hoses
must not be used. The water
inlet hose must be examined
at an interval of twelve
months for deterioration and
replaced if necessary.

The water pressure must be in the limits

Remove
entire
internal
membrane

indicated in the chapter ''TECHNICAL
INFORMATION''. Make sure that the
local water authority gives you the
average mains pressure in your area.

In order to pass the safety valve through
the kitchen cabinets, an opening of at
least 45 mm x 90 mm is needed.

14.3 Water drain hose

The highest point of the drain hose must
be no more than 600 mm from the floor
and must have a continuous fall to the
plumbing connection.

The drain hose can be lengthened using
additional lengths and connectors. These
must be purchased from Electrolux

ENGLISH 23

Spare Parts. The extension length must
not exceed 2 metres.

The drain hose must be free of
obstructions.

Remove the sink plug when the
appliance drains the water to prevent
that the water goes back into the
appliance.

The appliance has a security feature to
prevent dirty water going 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.

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