Installation
en
Positioning the appliance
Positioning the appliance in the desired location. The back of the appliance 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 the left to facilitate proper installation.
Levelling the appliance
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in or out) to adjust the dishwasher,
making it level. 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 water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas) connector,
making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see g.A).
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended
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.
g.A
Warning
The appliance is to be connected to the water mains using new
hose-sets and that old hose-sets should not be reused.

en
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. If necessary, t a syphon trap (U-bend) with a connecting piece for
the electrical drain hose (g.B). The free end of the hose must be at a height between 40 and 100 cm
and must not be immersed in water.
g.B
Attention:
The connecting piece for syphon trap (U-bend) must be securely
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 correct 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 is not appropriate for the plug, replace
the whole cable, rather than using adaptors or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.
Caution:
The dishwasher plug must be accessible even when the appliance
is installed as a built-in unit so that maintenance can be done
safely.
