damage to the machine it is
essential to read the operating and
installation instructions before it is installed,

Installing integrated "i" Dishwashers
Integrated ("i") dishwashers
"i" dishwashers are specially designed
for building under a continuous
worktop.
The accessories are included with "i"
–
dishwashers in a separate package
for on-site fixing.
The front of the dishwasher is
–
designed to take a front panel. It can
be fitted with a furniture door front to
match the rest of the kitchen.
The dishwasher does not have a
–
plinth facing. The plinth area of the
dishwasher needs to be covered
either with a plinth facing to match
the kitchen furniture or with one
which can be ordered as a special
accessory. The separate plinth
facing can be height adjusted to suit
the kitchen. The plinth return is freely
adjustable.
To ensure stability, "i" and "U"
,
model dishwashers must only be
installed under a continuous worktop
which must be securely screwed to
neighbouring units.
The dishwasher must not be
,
installed under a hob. The high
radiant temperatures which are
sometimes generated by a hob
could damage the dishwasher.
Instructions for installing the
dishwasher are described in the
following sections.

Installing integrated "i" Dishwashers
1.Fitting protective cover plate
to worktop
The underside of the worktop is
protected against steam rising from the
machine by a special cover plate.
If two different materials meet up
,
at the front edge of the worktop, then
the join must be concealed by the
cover plate.
Remove the protective backing from
^
the cover plate.
Use the tacks supplied to nail the
^
cover plate to the underside of the
worktop.
Worktops with wood or laminate
edging:
^ Nail the tacks through the holes
further back from the edge.
^
Squeeze sealant from the tube
supplied all the way along the hollow
moulding in the cover plate.
^
Align the cover plate to the front
edge of the worktop in the middle of
the niche.
^ Use soapy water to wipe off any
excess sealant.

Installing integrated "i" Dishwashers
2.Building the dishwasher
into a niche
Connection to water and drainage
should be sited beside and not behind
the dishwasher for accessibility.
Connections are usually made in the
area under the sink. Many kitchen unit
manufacturers provide a cut-out in the
base of the sink base unit for the hoses
to be fed through.
If the base unit has no opening and if
there is not an opening through the
plinth area for connections, one must
be cut.
Dishwasher height
Adjust the height manually before
^
installing the dishwasher.
Leave a space of approx. 5 mm
below the worktop to allow the
dishwasher to be pushed back easily
into the recess. Make sure that the
dishwasher stands level.
It is easier to adjust the screw feet if the
weight of the dishwasher is not bearing
down on them.
If possible tip the machine slightly.
Slides
You will find the slides in the upper
basket of the dishwasher.
They make installation of the
dishwasher easier and protect the floor
from possible damage when moving
the appliance into and out of the
recess. They are also used for
adjusting the height of the rear screw
feet.
Dimensions: 60 x 110 mm.
,
There must be no electrical
sockets behind the dishwasher.
Danger of overheating and fire risk if
the dishwasher were to be pushed
up against a plug.

Fit the slides - with the ratchet at the
rear - under the screw feet.
