Installation instructions
2. Installation and hook-up
Remove the polystyrene basket retainers.
Position the appliance in the desired place of installation. The back or
sides of the dishwasher may be placed up against walls or other
furniture units. If the dishwasher is installed near a heat source, fit the
special insulating panel to prevent overheating and malfunction of the
appliance. To ensure stability, install integrated or built-under
dishwashers only under continuous worktops, and screw them to the
adjacent units. To facilitate the installation procedure, the intake and
drain hoses can be positioned in any directio n; make sure t hat the h oses
are not kinked, crushed or pulled too tightly. Make sure to tighten the
locking ring-nut once the pipes have been placed in the direction
requi red. A hole at least 8 cm in diameter is required to allow the power
supply cable and pipes to pass.
Level the appliance on the floor using its adjustable feet. T his operation
is essential for ensuring correct operation of the dishwasher.
Building-in a dishwasher underneath a ceramic hob is absolutely
forbidden.
A dishwasher can be built-in underneath a conventional hob provided
there is no break in the kitchen worktop, and the dishwasher and hob are
installed and secured correctly, so that no hazards are generated.
When installing the dishwasher in a compartment next to one or more
other appliances, it is essential to comply with all the recommendations
provided by the appliance’s manufacturer (minimum distances, installation
procedures, etc.).
For free-standing models only:
- Installing a hob on top of a free-standing dishwasher is absolutely
forbidden.
- If the appliance is not built-in and is therefore accessible on on side, the
door hinge area must be covered for safety reasons (inj ury haz ard). The
covering fixtures are available as an accessory from specialist dealers
or the After-Sales Service.
- To build in the dishwasher, the special kit must be purchased from
authorised dealers or the After-Sales Service.
Some models are equipped with only one adjustable foot at the rear,
which can be adjusted by turning the screw on the lower front part of the
appliance.

Installation instructions
2.1 Water supply connection
Preventing the risk of clogging or damage: if the water pipe is new or
has not been used for a long time, before connecting to the water supply
check that the water is clear and free of impurities, to prevent damage to
the appliance.
The dishwasher must always be connected to the water system
with new hoses; old or used hoses must never be reused.
CONNECTING TO THE WATER SUPPLY
Connect the intake hose to a cold water supply with ¾”
gas thread, inserting the filter A supplied with the
dishwasher. Take care to screw the hose firmly into
place with your hands and then complete by
tightening about ¼ of a turn with pliers.
In dishwashers equipped with the ACQUASTOP
device, the filters is already fitted inside the threaded
ring.
The dishwasher can also be connected to a hot water supply not
exceeding 60°C. Supplying the appliance with hot water cuts down the
washing time by approximately 20 minutes, but slightly reduces its
effectiveness. Make the connection to the domestic hot water supply using
the same procedure described for connecting to the cold water supply .
DRAIN CONNECTION
Insert the dishwasher’s drain hose
into a drain pipe having a diameter
of at least 4 cm, or alternatively,
place it inside the kitchen sink
using the plastic support provided,
taking care not to crush or
excessively bend the hose. It is
important to prevent the hose from
coming loose and falling. For this
purpose, the plastic support is
equipped with a hole for tying it to
the wall or water tap.
The free end should be positioned at a height of bet ween 30 and 100
cm, and should never be submerged in water. If a horizontal drain
extension hose is used (for a maximum of 3 m) the drain hose can be
placed at a maximum height of 85 cm from the ground.

2.2 Electrical connection and precautions
CHECK THAT THE VOLTAGE AND THE FREQUENCY OF THE MAINS MATCH
THE RATINGS ON THE NAME PLATE OF THE APPLIANCE POSITIONED ON
THE INNER EDGE OF THE DOOR.
THE PLUG ON THE SUPPLY CORD AND THE CORRESPONDING SOCKET
OUTLET MUST BE OF THE SAME TYPE AND MEET THE REGULATIONS IN

THE PLUG MUST BE ACCESSIBLE AFTER INSTALLATION.
NEVER DISCONNECT THE PLUG BY PULLING ON THE POWER SUPPLY
LEAD.
IN THE EVENT OF DAMAGE TO THE SUPPLY CORD, HAVE IT REPLACED

THE POSSIBILITY OF OVERHEATING OR BURNING.
IF THE APPLIANCE IS PROVIDED WITH A PLUGLESS SUPPLY CORD:
IT IS NECESSARY TO INSTALL IN THE FIXED WIRING AN ALL-POLE
DISCONNECTION DEVICE HAVING A GAP BETWEEN CONTACTS OF AT
LEAST 3.5MM. AFTER INSTALLATION THE DISCONNECTION DEVICE HAS
TO BE EASY TO REACH.
THE CONNECTION TO THE MAINS MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY A
QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN IN ACCORDANCE TO THE SCHEME SHOWN
BELOW AND THE REGULATIONS IN FORCE.
