Installing your dishwasher

WARNING : Electrical shock hazard

Disconnect electrical power before installing dishwasher.

Failure to do so could result in death or electrical shock.

ATTENTION: The installation of the pipes and electrical equipments should be done by professionals.

About electricity connecting

CAUTION, for personal safety:

DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD OR AN ADAPTER PLUG WITH THIS APPLIANCE. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD.

Electrical requirements

•An AC 220-240 V / 50 Hz fuse or a circuit breaker.

•An individual branch circuit serving your dishwasher.

Grounding instructions

Insure proper ground exists before use

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance of electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in the risk of an electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance.

WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN

Cold water connection

Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (inch) connector and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place.

If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there is a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and damage the appliance.

Provided water supply hose has the aqua-safe system. Ensure that water supply hose’s aqua-safe pipe is connected to the faucet.

Hot water connection

The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the house hot water line (centralized system, heating system), as long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60 °C. In this case, the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15 minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced. The connection must be made to the hot water line following the same procedures as those for the connection to the cold water line.

Positioning the appliance

Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation.

How to drain excess water from hoses

If the sink is 1000mm higher from the floor, the excess water in hoses cannot be drained directly into the sink. It will be necessary to drain excess water from hoses into a bowl or suitable container that is held outside and lower than the sink.

Water outlet

Connect the water drain hose. The drain hose must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. Ensure that the water inlet hose is not kinked or squashed.

Extension hose

If you need a drain hose extension, Use a similar size and quality drain hose.

It must be no longer than 4 metres; otherwise the cleaning effect of the dishwasher could be reduced.

Syphon connection

The waste connection must be at a height of between 40 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the dishwasher. The water drain hose should be fixed by a hose clip.

Aqua-safe

The Aqua-safe System is a safety valve system, preventing water leaks. If the water inlet hose starts to leak anytime, the safety valve cuts off the running water. If the water inlet hose or the safety valve is damaged, remove & replace it.

Do not enlarge or shorten the inlet hose.

The water softener is designed to remove minerals and salts from the water, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance. The higher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder your water is. The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.

Adjusting salt consumption

The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used. This is intended to Spelling - optimise - customise the level of salt consumption so that the salt consumption could be set proceed as follows:

1.Switch on the appliance;

2.Press the Start/Pause button for more than 3 seconds to start the water softener set model within 60seconds after the appliance was switched on;

3.Press the Start/Pause button to select the proper set according to your local environment, the sets will change in the following sequence: H1->H2->H3->H4->H5->H6; It is recommended that adjustments should be made in accordance with the following table.

* The manufactory setting: H4 (EN 50242)

4.Wait for 5 seconds to end the set up model.
