Electrical connection
Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.
WARNING:THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
The manufacturer declines any liability should this safety measure not be observed.
Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the same as that indicated on the appliance’s rating plate.The rating plate is located on the side of the dishwasher’s door.
The plug moulded onto the lead incorporates a 13amp BSI362 fuse. Only ASTA or BSI fuses should be used.
To isolate the dishwasher from mains, remove the mains plug.
If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not suitable for the socket, it must be cut off and the appropriate plug fitted.
Important
The wires on the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green andYellow - Earth
Blue - Neutral
Brown - Live
If you fit your own plug, the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not correspond with the markings identifying the terminals in your plug.
Proceed as follows:
1.Connect the Green and Yellow (earth) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "E" or the earth symbol 
or coloured green and yellow.
2.Connect the Blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "N" or coloured black.
3.Connect the Brown (live) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "L" or coloured red.
4.Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray strands of wire present and the cord clamp must be secure over the outer sheath.
The plug must not be used if the fuse cover/carrier is lost.The cover/carrier is indicated by the coloured insert at the base of the plug.
A replacement cover/carrier must be obtained from your local Service Force centre. Please contact our extended warranty administrators on 0870 0107887 who will give you details for your local Service Force centre.

WARNING:
A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure that the cut off plug is disposed of safely.
The plug must still be accessible after the appliance has been installed.
The appliance should not be connected to the electrical supply by means of an extension cable.
In case that the electrical cable has to be replaced, please contact our extended warranty administrators on 0870 0107887 who will give you details for your local Service Force repair agent.
Important!
If the mains supply cable is damaged it must be replaced; contact our warranty administrators on 0870 010 7887 who will give you details for your local Service Force repair agent.
Permanent connection
In the case of permanent connection it is necessary that you install a double pole switch between the appliance and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap of 3mm between the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current electrical regulations.
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth cable at any point.
Any electrical and/or plumbing work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician and/or plumber or competent person.
Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.
If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a drain.
Water supply connections
We recommend that this dishwasher is connected to your cold water supply.
For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the machine’s supply hose is designed to screw onto either a 3/4" inch gas thread spout or to a purpose made quick-coupling tap such as the Press-block.
The water pressure must be within the limits given in the "Technical specifications" shown on page 6.Your local Water Authority will advise you on the average mains pressure in your area.
The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled when it is being connected up.
The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation by means of the locknut. The locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. (Important! NOT all models of dishwashers have fill and drain hoses provided with locknut. In this case, this kind of facility is not possible).
If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose.
DO NOT use connection hoses which have previously been used for an old appliance.
This appliance has been fitted with safety features which will prevent the water used in the appliance from returning back into the drinking water system.This appliance complies with the applicable plumbing regulations.
Water inlet hose with safety valve
After connecting the double-walled water inlet hose, the safety valve is next to the tap.Therefore the water inlet hose is only under pressure while the water is running. If the water inlet hose starts to leak during this operation, the safety valve cuts off the running water.
Please take care when installing the water inlet hose:
-The electrical cable for the safety valve is in the doublewalled water inlet hose. Do not immerse the water inlet hose or the safety valve in water.
-If water inlet hose or the safety valve is damaged, remove the mains plug immediately.
-A water inlet hose with safety valve must only be replaced by a specialist or by the Service Force Centre.
-Place the water inlet hose in such a way that it is never higher than the bottom edge of the safety valve.
WARNING!
Dangerous voltage

Water outlet hose connection
The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following ways:
1.To the sink outlet spigot, securing it to the underside of the work surface.This will prevent waste water from the sink running into the machine.
2.To a stand pipe provided with vent-hole, minimum internal diameter 4 cm.
The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the dishwasher.
The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the dishwasher
Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent or slow down the discharge of water.
The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is draining as this could cause the water to syphon back into the machine.
If you use a drain hose extension it must be no longer than 2 metres and its internal diameter must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.
Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for connections to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.
Important!
Our appliances are supplied with a security device to protect against the return of dirty water back into the machine.
If the spigot of your sink has a "no return valve" incorporated this can prevent the correct draining of your dishwasher.
We therefore advise you to remove it.
Building-in
This dishwasher is designed to be fitted under a kitchen counter or worksurface.
Important!
Carefully follow the instructions on the enclosed template for building in the dishwasher and fitting the furniture panel.
No further openings for the venting of the dishwasher are required, but only to let the water fill and drain hose and power supply cable pass through.
The dishwasher incorporates adjustable feet to allow the adjustment of the height.
During all operations that involve accessibility to internal components the dishwasher has to be unplugged.
When inserting the machine, ensure that the water inlet hose, the drain hose and the supply cable are not kinked or squashed.
Levelling
Good levelling is essential for correct closure and sealing of the door.
When the appliance is correctly levelled, the door will not catch on either side of the cabinet.
If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the adjustable feet until the machine is perfectly level.
Fixing to the adjacent units
The dishwasher must be secured against tilting.
Therefore make sure that the counter it is fixed under, is suitably secured to a fixed structure (adjacent kitchen units cabinets, wall).
