Electrical,drain and
water supply line en­trances must be con­fined to shaded areas
to avoid interference
with components.

Most of the installation work should be done be­fore the dishwasher is moved into place .First,se­lect a location as close to the sink as possible for
ready access to water and drain lines. For proper
operation and appearance of the dishwasher,the
cabinet opening should be square and have dimen­sions as shown in Fig. 1.lf the dishwasher is to be
installed in a corner,there must be sufficient clear­ance to open the door as shown in Fig. 2.A mini­mum clearance of 2" is recommended.

Rough-in the water,electrical,and drain lines before
proceeding with the installation. The lines should
run straight to their connections on the dishwasher.

Note:Make sure that the lines do not cross in
front of the dishwasher motor or its legs.

Installation

Installation

Positioning the Appliance

Positioning the appliance in the desired
location.The back should rest against the wall
behind it,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.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 figure1).
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.

The connection must be made to the hot water
line following the same procedures as those
for the connection to the cold water line.

Anti-Flooding Protection

The dishwasher is equipped with a system that
stops the supply of water in the event of a prob­lem with the water supply hose,or leaks within
the unit,in order to prevent damage to your
home.If for any reason the box containing the
electrical components happens to get
damaged,remove the plug for the appliance
from the socket immediately.In order to guar­antee that the anti-flooding feature operates
properly,the"A"box with water supply hose must
be attached to the water supply tap as shown
in Fig .1.No other type of connection is
acceptable.The water supply hose must not,
under any circumstances,be cut,as it contains
electrical parts which are live.If the length of
the hose is not adequate to make a proper
connection,the hose must be replaced with one
whith is long enough.This hose is available upon
request from specialised retailers and service
centres.

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 speical plastic support that
comes with the appliance (see figure fig.C).
The free end of the hose must be at a height
between 40 and 100 cm and must not be im­mersed in water.

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 staunless steel inner door of
the appliance) and that the electrical system
is sizedd 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 plug ,rather than using
adpators or the like as they could cause over­heating and burns.

Installation

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

.
In this case,the wash cycle time will be short­ened by about 15 minutes and the wash effi­ciency slightly reduced.

Cleaning and Special Maintenance

Filter Assembly

For best performance and results, the filter as­sembly must be cleaned.
The filter efficiently removes food particles
from the wash water,allowing it to be recircu­lated during the cycle.For this reason ,it is a
good idea to remove the larger food particles
trapped in the filter after each wash cycle by
rinsing the"A"semi-circular filter and cup un­der running water.To remove the filter
assembly,pull on the cup handle in the upward
direction. The entire filter assembly (made up
of the "A" semicircular filter and the"B" fine
filter)should be cleaned at ;east once a month.
To clean the filter and the fine filter,use a clean­ing brush .Then,reassemble the filter parts as
shown in the figures below and reinsert the
entire aseembly in the dishwasher,positioning
in its seat and pressing downward.
The dishwasher must never be used without
the filters.Improper replacement of the filters
may reduce level of the appliance and dam­age dishes and utensils.

Cleaning the Sprayer Arms

It may happen that food particle become en­crusted on the sprayer arms and block the hole
(see "Close up view [interior]",letters C-F ).
Check the sprayer arms periodically and clean
them when needed.
