a turbidity sensor which intelligently adjusts the temperature
and rinsing cycles during the wash programme,depending on
the degree of soiling on the dishes.This helps to reduce
energy and water consumption on lightly soiled loads.
● Half load: this allows to wash small loads reducing energy
and water consumptions.

Unpacking
● 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".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 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.

Fitting under a counter
(kitchen worktop or sink)
By removing the machine’s worktop,you can install it under a
close fitting sink unit or a pre-existing top,providing the
dimensions of the recess correspond to those shown in the
picture.
Proceed as follows:
Remove the machine’s worktop by unscrewing the two rear
retaining screws,pull the worktop from the back of the machine
and slide out the front slots,lifting the worktop.
Insert the machine after adjusting height and levelling with the
adjustable feet.When inserting the machine,ensure that the
water inlet and drain hoses are not kinked or squashed.
During all operations that involve accessibility to internal
components the dishwasher has to be unplugged.
Be sure that once the appliance has been installed,it is easily
accessible for the service engineer in the event that a repair is
required.
If the dishwasher is later used as a free-standing appliance,the
original worktop must be re-mounted.
The plinth on free-standing appliances is not adjustable.
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.

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 see page 25.
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.
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 work required to install this appliance should be
carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.
WARNING:THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED.
Important!
If the mains supply cable is damaged it
must be replaced;contact our warranty
administrators see page 25.
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 and Yellow - Earth
Blue - Neutral
Brown - Live
