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. 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.
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.
Anti-flooding protection
Your dishwasher is provided
with a special system which
blocks the water supply in
the event of leaks inside the
appliance.
Connect to the Water
Supply...
- For your dishwasher to operate correctly it requires
water pressures in the range
of 6-150 psi (100-1000KPa).
Most cold water supplies will
be in this range. NOTE: low
water pressure will lead to
excessively long fill times or
no fill.
- Ensure that the new hose
supplied is connected and
the old hose is disposed of
safely.
- Ensure the fill hose is only
fitted to the cold water
supply.
overtighten the hose
connector, hand tight is
sufficient.
- Ensure the fill hose is not
kinked.
- Tap connections (if
applicable): A range of
adaptors are available to
suit your tap.
