NOTICE
Carefully read the instructions contained in this manual, as
they provide important information which is essential for safe
and proper installation, use and maintenance of the appliance.

This appliance complies with the following EEC
directives:

- 73/23/EEC of 19 February 1973 (Low Voltage) and subse­ quent modifications;

- 89/336/EEC of 3 May 1989 (Electromagnetic Compatibility)
and subsequent modifications.

* If the appliance is not operating properly or maintenance must
be performed, disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

- Keep detergents out of the reach of children, who must also be
kept away from the dishwasher when it is open.

- This appliance cannot be installed outdoors, not even if the
area in which it is installed is covered by a roof; it is also very
dangerous to leave it exposed to the rain and elements.

- Do not touch the heating element during or after a wash cycle.

- Do not lean or sit on the door when it is open, as this could
overturn the dishwasher.

- If the appliance malfunctions, turn off the water supply to the
appliance and disconnect the plug from the wall socket. Then,
consult the section entitled, "Troubleshooting". If you cannot
solve the problem, contact a service centre.

- Only specialised personnel are authorised to make repairs.

- Appliances which are no longer being used must be made
inoperable by cutting the power supply cord and removing the
door lock.

- The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.

- The carpet must not obstruct the opening when the appliance is
installed on a carpeted floor.

- If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special
cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or service
agent.

Positioning the Appliance

Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should
rest against the wall, and the sides along the adjacent cabinets
or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain
hoses that can be positioned to the right or left to facilitate proper
installation.

Levelling the Appliance

Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them
in or out) of the dishwasher until it is level. In any case, the appli­ance should not be inclined more than 2°. If the appliance is level,
it will help ensure proper performance.

Cold Water Connection

Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas) connec­tor and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see fig.1).
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for a prolonged
period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is
clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there is
a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and damage the
appliance.

Hot Water Connection

The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the
house's hot water line (centralised system, heating system), as
long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60°C.
In this case, the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15
minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced.
The connection must be made to the hot water line following the
same procedures as for the connection to the cold water line.

Drain Hose Connection

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter
of 4cm, or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending
or crimping it. Use the special plastic support that comes with
the appliance (see fig .2). The free end of the hose must be at a
height between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in
water.

fig.2

Attention:

The special plastic hose support must be solidly fastened to
the wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing
water to spill outside the drain.

Electrical Connection

After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for the
current in the home correspond to those on the rating plate
(located on the stainless steel inner door of the appliance) and
that the electrical system is sized for the maximum voltage on
the rating plate, insert the plug into an electrical socket which is
earthed properly (the earthing of the appliance is a safety re­quirement mandated by law).
If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected
