Installation

Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for EN future reference. If the appliance is sold, given away

or moved, please ensure the manual is kept with the machine, so that the new owner may benefit from the advice contained within it.

Please read this instruction manual carefully: it contains important information regarding the safe installation, use and maintenance of the appliance.

If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it in an upright position; if absolutely necessary, it may be tilted onto its back.

Positioning and levelling

1.Remove the appliance from all packaging and check that it has not been damaged during transportation.

If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not proceed any further with the installation process.

2.Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its sides or back panel are in contact with the adjacent cabinets or even with the wall. This appliance can also be recessed under a single worktop (see the Assembly instruction sheet).

3.Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position (the angle of inclination must not exceed 2 degrees). If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will be more stable and much less likely to move or cause vibrations and noise while it is operating.

Connecting the water and electricity supplies

Connection to the water and electricity supplies should only be performed by a qualified technician.

The dishwasher should not stand on top of the water hoses or the electricity supply cable.

The water inlet (A) and outlet (B) hoses and the electricity supply cable may be positioned towards the right or the left in order to achieve the best possible installation (see figure).

Connecting the water inlet hose

To a suitable cold water connection point: before attaching the hose, run the water until it is perfectly clear so that any impurities that may be present in the water do not clog the appliance; after performing this operation, screw the inlet hose tightly onto a tap with a ¾ gas threaded connection.

To a suitable hot water connection point: your dishwasher may be provided with hot water from the mains supply (if you have a central heating system with radiators) provided that it does not exceed a temperature of 60°C.

Screw the hose to the tap as described for connection to a cold water supply.

If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist store or an authorised technician (see Assistance).

The water pressure must be within the values indicated in the Technical data table (see below).

The hose should not be bent or compressed.

Anti-flooding protection

To ensure floods do not occur, the dishwasher:

-is provided with a special system which blocks the water supply in the event of anomalies or leaks from inside the appliance.

-is provided with a Water Stop* safety device, in other words it has a water inlet hose that consists of a transparent hose on the outside and a red hose on the inside: both the hoses can withstand extremely high pressure. If the internal hose breaks, the external hose becomes a bright red colour and carries the water instead, thus avoiding any leakage.

It is very important to check the external hose regularly: if it is a bright red colour, it must be replaced by an authorised technician as soon as possible (see Assistance).

* Only available in selected models.

Connecting the water outlet hose

Connect the outlet hose (without bending it) to a drain duct with a minimum diameter of 4 cm. Alternatively, rest it over a sink or tub; the free end of the hose should not remain immersed in water.

 

 

 

The special plastic

 

 

A

find the best layout: fix

securely in order to

 

 

 

prevent the outlet hose

 

 

 

from moving and spilling

 

 

 

 

 

 

the dirty water.

 

 

 

The part of the hose

 

 

 

marked with the letter A

 

 

 

should be between 40 and 100 cm above the ground (see figure).

We advise against the use of hose extensions.

Electrical connection

Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket, make sure that:

the socket is earthed and complies with current regulations;

the socket can withstand the maximum load of the appliance, which is indicated on the data plate located on the inside of the door (see Description of the appliance);

the power supply voltage falls within the values indicated on the data plate on the inside of the door;

the socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If this is not the case, ask an authorised technician to replace the plug (see Assistance); do not use extension cables or multiple sockets.

Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply cable and the electrical socket should be easily accessible.

The cable should not be bent or compressed.

The cable should be checked regularly and

EN

replaced by authorised technicians only.

The Company shall not be held responsible for any incidents that occur if these regulations are not observed.

Advice regarding the first wash cycle

After the appliance has been installed, immediately before running the first wash cycle, completely fill the salt dispenser with water and add approximately 2 kg of salt (see Rinse aid and refined salt). The water may overflow: this is normal and is not a cause for concern. It is also normal that the LOW SALT* indicator light continues to flash for a few cycles after the salt has been loaded.

Electrical Connection

EN If your appliance is supplied with a 13 amp. fused plug it can be plugged into a 13 amp socket for immediate use. Before using the appliance please read the instruction below.

Warning:this appliance must be earthed.

Thed following operations should be carried out by a qualified electrician.

Replacing the fuse

When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be used, and the fuse cover re-fitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained.

Replacemente fuse covers

If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the correct colours as indicated by the coloured marking or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug. Replacements can be obtained directly from your nearest Service Depot.

Removing the plug

Ifyour appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug and you should wish to remove it to re-route the mains cable through partitions, units etc., please esure that either:

- the plug is replaced by a fused 13 amp re-wireable plug bearing the BSI mark of approval

or:

- the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp cable outlet, controlled by a switch, (in compliance with BS 5733) which is accessible without moving the appliance.

Disposing of the plug:

Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, you make the pins unusable so that it cannot be accidentally inserted into a socket.

Instruction for connecting cable to an altenative plug

Important: the wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green & Yellow

- Earth

Blue

- Neutral

Brown

- Live

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.

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminal in your plug, proceed as follows:

connect Green & Yellow wire to terminal market “E” or coloured Green or Green & Yellow.

Connect Brown wire to terminal marked “L” or coloured Red.

Connect Blue wire to terminal marked “N” or coloured Black.

If a 13 amp plug (BS 1363) is used it must be fitted with a 13 amp fuse. A15 amp plug must be protected by a 15 amp fuse, either in the plug or adaptor or at the distribution board.

If you are in any doubt about the electrical supply to your machine, consult a qualified electrician before use.
