2.2 POSITIONING AND LEVELLING
1. Place the appliance in the
chosen position.
2. Level the appliance carefully
in all directions with the aid of
a spirit level, adjusting the
height of the feet if necessary.
Once done, fix the feet in
place with the locknuts provided.
3. On appliances with adjustable rear feet, note that the rear of the appliance rests on skids and not on the feet.
Before inserting the appliance into its place between the kitchen units, check that the rear feet are screwed
fully in to prevent damage as the appliance is shifted into position.
Once the appliance is in position in the kitchen, the height of the rear feet has to be increased so that the appliance no longer stands on the skids. After adjusting the rear feet, level the appliance and fix the front feet at
the height required.
The water intake and drain hoses can be fitted pointing to the left or right for effective installation.

2.3 CONNECTING TO THE WATER SUPPLY
1. Check that the water supply pressure is in the following range: 0,05-0,9MPa. With
higher pressures, use a pressure reducer.
2. Connect the cold water supply hose (blue screw collar) to the cold water tap with ¾
gas threaded connector, taking care to tighten firmly to prevent leaks. The water supply hose must not be kinked or crushed and must not be changed or cut. Threaded
connections must only be tightened by hand.
3. When appliances are supplied with hot water, the intake water temperature must not
exceed 60°C and the hose with red screw collar must be connected to the hot water supply tap.
Warning!
• If the connection is made to new pipelines, or lines which have been out of use for a long time, allow a considerable amount of water to flow out before connecting the intake hose. This prevents any sand or other dirt
from fouling the filters installed in the appliance to protect the water intake valves.
• The new intake hose supplied with the appliance must be used, and the old water supply hose must not be
used.
2.4 CONNECTING TO THE DRAIN
1. Insert the end of the drain hose into a drain pipe having inside diameter of at least 4 cm, at least 50 to 90 cm
above floor level, or connect it securely (using the plastic fitting on the elbow in the hose) to a sink or bathtub.
2. In all cases, check that the end of the drain hose is securely fixed to prevent the repulsive force of the water
from pushing it out of place.
Warning!
• Avoid kinks or restrictions to ensure effective drainage.
• Any drain hose extensions must be no more than 1 metre long, must be of the same diameter and must be
free from restrictions of all kinds.
• The end of the drain hose must never be submerged in water.
2.5 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Before connecting the plug to the power socket ensure that:
1. The electrical system voltage is the same as that stated on the nameplate on the front of the appliance,
in the zone visible when the door is open. The rated power supply and the fuses required are specified
on the nameplate.
2. The meter, safety breakers, power supply line and power socket are rated to withstand the maximum lo-
ad required, stated on the nameplate.
3. The power supply socket and the plug fitted to the appliance are compatible without the use of reduc-
tions, multiple sockets, adapters and extension leads which might cause overheating or scorching.
If the power supply socket is not compatible with the plug supplied, replace the socket with one of the
appropriate type.
Warning
• The power plug must be accessible after the appliance has been installed.
• It is absolutely essential to connect the appliance to earth. Connect the plug to a socket with an earth
connection in good working order.
