installation
All parts removed must be saved to do the reinstallation in the future. Ensure the dishwasher is unplugged and empty. We recommend that 2 people handle the dishwasher during installation.
1. Please ensure the dishwasher is installed by a qualified technician. Refer to the tools required.
location
When selecting a position for your dishwasher you should make sure the installation surface is flat and firm, and the room is well ventilated. Avoid locating your dishwasher near a heat source, eg. cooker, boiler or radiator. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the appliance not to perform properly. This dishwasher is not designed for use in a garage or outdoors.
Do not cover the dishwasher. When installing, ensure that free space is left at the sides.
2. Ensure there is clearance each side of the unit to allow slight sideways movement for servicing when required. Good levelling is essential for correct closure and sealing of the door. When the unit is correctly levelled, the door should not catch the inner liner on either side of the cabinet. The adjustable feet may be loosened or tightened in order to obtain the optimum levelling of the unit.
If required, the worktop of the dishwasher can
be removed. The height without the worktop is 820 mm, the minimum dimensions required to accommodate the dishwasher within fitted kitchen furniture units.

installation
Failure to attach the condensation strip could result in damage to the underside of your worktop!
4. The condensation strip must be fitted to the underside of the worktop above your dishwasher to protect it against any moisture. Its purpose is to protect your worktop’s underside from steam rising from the dishwasher.
• Ensure the surface is clean prior to
sticking the condensation strip to the underside of the worktop.
• Remove the backing paper from the
condensation strip.
3. Do not connect the unit to the mains socket before installation. Ensure you are not installing the unit right in front of the mains socket. This is to avoid potential damage to the back of the unit.
• Stick the condensation strip to the
underside of the worktop.
5. The worktop can be removed by removing the fixing screws located at the rear of the dishwasher. After removing the screws, lift and push the worktop forward to release the lugs from the front section of the dishwasher. The polystyrene block and the lugs should be saved for future use.
Leave some space
Stick the Condensation Strip under the worktop, where you want to install the dishwasher.

OLD HOSE SETS MUST NOT BE RE-USED. The water pressure from the water mains needs to be at a minimum of 0.04 MPa and a maximum of
1.00MPa.

supply hose to your dishwasher, and then connect the other end of the hose to your water mains. Please ensure the black rubber seal is in place.
