question is installed.
Damage caused by incorrect installation. It is therefore compulsory that installation and testing be performed by
qualified and skilled personnel.
Damage caused by any use other than that for which the machine has been manufactured.
Damage caused by non-compliance with the provided instructions.
The installer must:
Check for perfect electrical connection and in particular good earthing, as well as the presence of a suitable earthleakage breaker and a circuit breaker.
Make sure that the wall-mounted circuit breaker is easily accessible and close to the machine.
Test the machine and make sure there is no malfunction.
Inform and train the personnel in charge of operating the machine about its use and the hazards it generates.
Agree with the user on a periodic check of the machine according to how much the machine is used
.

CAP.4 INSTALLATION
4.1 Removal from packing and positioning:
Make sure that the dishwasher is in perfect condition. In case of signs of damage, report them to the seller and
haulage contractor. In case of doubt concerning the dishwasher conditions,
do not use it before having it checked by an authorised service centre.
The installation must be performed exclusively by qualified technicians, according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Move the dishwasher where you wish to install it and remove the packing.
This dishwasher is designed for fixed connections only.
Position the dishwasher on a flat surface.
Install electrical, hydraulic and drain lines in the washing area according to the instructions provided on the
machine's technical data sheet. Further details are indicated in the paragraphs relative to plumbing and
electrical connections.
Before connecting the dishwasher to the water and electrical supply, make sure that the general features and
data indicated by the manufacturer on the plate on the back of the manual have been complied with as far as
the arrangement of the installation site is concerned.
The floor must be measured taking the overall weight of the machine into consideration. It must also be
NOTE: to connect the dishwasher to work tops, couple the supports on the edges of the tank and fix them using the
screws provided. The connection can be either on the front or side.
perfectly flat.
4.2 Electrical connections :
“The dishwasher shall be installed in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, installed
in accordance with the applicable requirements in the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70, Canadian
Electrical Code (CEC), Part 1, CSA C22.1, and Standard for Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of
Commercial Cooking Operations, NFPA 96”
When connecting the dishwasher to the power supply, refer to the wiring diagram and the data plate of the
dishwasher.
Make sure that the voltage and frequency of the power supply correspond to those on the plate indicating the
technical characteristics located on the right side of the machine.
Install a “main switch” (not provided) on the electrical line that supplies the dishwasher in compliance with the
requirements of the local electrical standards.
All the electrical connections go to the terminal block located inside the machine, then connect to the mains
using a power cord (not provided) suitably sized for the load (see plate adjacent to the terminal block); the cord
and plug must comply with the requirements of the local electrical standards.
The appliance must also be included in an equipotential system, the connection of which is performed using a
screw marked with the following symbol: . The equipotential conductor must have a section of 10 mm².
An effective earthing system in conformity with the prevention standards in force is a guarantee for operator and
equipment safety.
In the three-phase models, check for correct rotation of the wash pump.
Note: If interventions on the electric circuit must be performed, disconnect from the mains and apply a tag on the switch
indicating the intervention in progress.

4.3 Plumbing connections:
To connect the dishwasher to the water network make sure that:
There is a “gate valve” that is able to interrupt the water supply when necessary or in case of repair.
A supply pipe has been envisaged for each user in order to avoid any load or pressure drops.
A pressure reducer complete with by-pass has been installed upstream, if the static pressure is greater than
345 kPa (50 psi).
Then connect the filling solenoid valve to the water supply tap using the hose provided.
4.4 Connection to the drainage :
The tank empties by gravity, so the drain must be at a lower level than the
machine base.
Connect the machine drains to the sewer system using pipes that resist a
constant temperature of 80°C.
The drain spigot must be connected to a well or a water trap in the floor by a
flexible pipe drain.
4.5 Limit switch connection:
The table below indicates the requirements and default settings of the dishwasher:
Mount the limit switch (found on the side panel of the machine) on the outfeed
surface.
It is necessary to carry out the following Booster Tank filling operation during the installation phase.
1) Energize the machine using the wall-mounted main switch.
The machine emits a beep and displays the uploaded software version, after which some dashes as shown in the
