Installation
Choose where you want to
install your dishwasher, you
can place it so that its sides
or back panel are side by
side with furniture or up
against the wall. (See the
built-in instructions for the
measures). The dishwasher
is provided with water
supply and drain hoses,
which can be directed
towards the left or right to facilitate appropriate
installation.
Levelling.
Once the appliance is
positioned, adjust the feet
by screwing them in or out
depending on how high you
want it and to level it so that
it is horizontal. Make sure
that it is not inclined more
than 2 degrees. If the
appliance is level, it will
help ensure its correct
operation.
Height Adjustment
Insert the appliance into the
cutout and then adjust the
height using the screws
located on the front bottom
part of the machine. Use a
screwdriver to turn the
screws in the clockwise or
anti-clockwise direction to
increase or decrease the
height respectively.
Adjusting the back Feet
Insert the appliance into the
cutout and then adjust the
height using the screws
located on the front bottom
part of the machine. Use a
screwdriver to turn the
screws in the clockwise or
anti-clockwise direction to
increase or decrease the
height respectively.
Cold water connection
Connect the cold water
supply hose, and making
sure that it is fastened
tightly in place. If the water
hoses are new or have been
out of use for an extended
period of time, let the water
run to make sure it is clear
and free of impurities before
making the connection. If
this precaution is not taken,
the water inlet could get
blocked, causing damage to
your dishwasher.
It is strongly recommended
to use a new hose to
connect the dishwasher to
the water supply line, and
the old hose-set should not
be reused. Asking to
specilized shop or an
authorized service
technician (see Service).
Condensation-proof tape.
On some models, a
transparent condensationproof adhesive tape has
been provided.
It should be stuck onto the
lower side of your wooden
worktop to protect it from the
formation of condensation.
When not provided, this tape
can be requested as a spare
part from authorised
retailers.
Anti-flooding protection
Your dishwasher is provided
with a special system which
blocks the water supply in
the event of leaks inside the
appliance.
Drain hose connection
WARNING: Connect your
dishwasher drain hose to
pipes which connect to the
foul drain system and not to
surface water drains.
IMPORTANT: For the correct
operation of your
dishwasher, it is essential to
comply with the following
information:-
Standpipe:
Ensure that the hose is not
pushed too far down the
standpipe.
If the end of your drain hose
is fitted with ‘retaining flaps’,
ensure they are inserted fully
into the standpipe. This will
prevent the pipe from
jumping out during
installation and use.
DO NOT position the
standpipe near an electrical
outlet.
ENSURE that the drain hose
is not kinked and it is routed
as shown in the diagram.
The standpipe should have
a bore of at least 38mm (11/
2”). It should be installed as
shown, have a trap fitted and
must discharge into the
same drain system as your
household sink.
It MUST NOT be connected
to a surface water drain.
Sink Waste System:
For under sink drainage:
Before connecting the drain
hose, remove any internal
restrictions - This will
prevent a build up of debris
which could cause a
blockage.
Remove any restrictions
from the waste spigot and
ensure that the sealing bung
is removed. The hose
should be routed, such that
it is raised to a minimum
height of 800mm (31/2”).
NOTE: Ensure the sink
outlet pipe has a minimum
diamtere of 32mm.
1. Untie the end of the
GREY drainage hose from
the rear of the appliance.
2. Reposition the ‘Hooked
End Support’ as required
along the GREY drainage
hose.
3. If fitting an under sink
waste disposal unit, cut
out the membrane, bung or
blanking plug.
Ensure the drain hose is
securely attached, to
prevent it coming away
while the machine is in use
and causing a flood.
