2. WATER SUPPLY

The appliance must be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets. The old hose-sets should not be reused.

!The inlet and drain hoses can be directed to left or right.

The dishwasher can be connected to either cold or hot water, as long as it is no hotter than 60°C.

!Water pressure must be between 0,08 MPa and 0,8 MPa.

!The inlet hose must be connected to a tap so that the water supply can be cut off when the machine is not in use (fig. 1 B).

!The dishwasher is fitted with 3/4" threaded connector (fig. 2).

!Connect inlet hose “A” to water tap “B” with a 3/4" attachment making sure that it has been properly tightened.

!If the dishwasher is connected to new pipes or to pipes which have not been inuse for a long time run water through for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. In this way no deposits of sand or rust will clog up the water inflow filter.

Hydraulic safety devices

These dishwashers are also equipped with an anti-overflow safety device which, if water exceeds normal levels due to malfunctions, automatically blocks water flow and/or drains excess quantities.

Some models may include one or more of the following features:

WATERBLOCK (fig. 3)

The waterblock system has been designed to improve the safety of your appliance. The waterblock system actually prevents flooding which might be caused by a machine malfunction or as a result of a fracture on the pipes.

How does waterblock work

Sump located in the base of the appliance collects any possible water leakage and operates a sensor which subsequently activates a valve placed under the water tap and stops any water from the supply even with the tap fully opened. If the box “A” containing the electrical parts is damaged, remove the plug from the socket immediately. To ensure perfect operation of the safety system, box “A” with the hose, should be connected to the tap as shown in figure. The inlet hose should not be cut, as it contains parts under load. If the hose is not long enough for correct connection, it must be replaced with a longer one. The hose can be obtained from your Service Agent.

!AQUASTOP (fig. 4):
A device located on the supply tube that
stops water flow if the tube deteriorates;	EN
in this case, a red mark will appear in the
window “A” and the tube must be
replaced. To unscrew the nut, press the
one-way lock device "B".

!AQUAPROTECT - SUPPLY TUBE WITH GUARD (fig. 5):

Should water leak from the primary internal tube "A", the transparent containment sheath "B" will contain water to permit the washing cycle to complete. At the end of the cycle, contact the Customer Service Centre to replace the supply tube.

Connecting the outlet hose

!The outlet hose should disharge into a standpipe, making sure that there are no kinks (fig. 6).

!The standpipe must be at least 40 cm above floor level and it must have an internal diameter of at least 4 cm.

!It is advisable to fit an anti-odour air trap (fig. 6X). If necessary the outlet hose can be extended up to 2,5 m, provided that it is kept at a maximum height of 85 cm above floor level. The extension pipe is available from the After Sales Service Centre.

!The hose can be hooked over the side of the sink, but it must not be immersed in water, in order to prevent water from being syphoned back to the machine when this is in operation (fig. 6Y).

!When installing the appliance under a worktop the hose pipe clamp must be

attached to the wall in the highest possible position under the worktop

(fig. 6Z).

!Check that there are no kinks in the inlet and outlet hoses.

3. LOADING THE SALT

(Fig. A "1")

!The appearance of white stains on dishes is generally a warning sign that the salt container needs filling.

!On the bottom of the machine there is a container for the salt for regenerating the softener.

!It is important to use only a salt that is specifically designed for dishwasher. Other types of salt contain small quantities of insoluble particles which over a long period of time may affect and deteriorate the softener performance.

!To add salt, unscrew the cap of the container on the bottom and then refill the container.

!During this operation a little water will overflow; but keep adding salt until the container is full. When the container is full, clean the thread of salt residue and retighten the tap.

!After loading the salt, it is recommended running a complete washing cycle, or COLD RINSE programme.

After loading the salt, YOU MUST run
a complete washing cycle, or the		EN
PRE-WASH/COLD	RINSE/REFRESH
programme.

!The salt dispenser has a capacity of between 1.5 and 1.8 kg and, for efficient use of the appliance, it should be refilled from time to time .

(Only for first start up) When the appliance is used for the first time, after completely filling the salt container, it is necessary to add water until the container overflows.
