General

• When determining where to put your machine, choose a place where you can easily load and unload your dishes�

• Do not put your machine in any location where there is a probability for the room temperature to fall below 0°C�

• Before positioning, take the machine out of its packaging by following the warnings located on the package�

• Position the machine close to a water tap or drain� You need to site your machine, taking into consideration that its connections will not be altered once they are made�

• Do not grip the machine by the door in order to move it�

• Leave a clearance on all sides of the machine so that you can comfortably move it back and forth during cleaning�

• Make sure that the water inlet and outlet hoses aren’t squeezed while positioning the machine� Also, make sure that the machine does not stand on the electrical cable�

• Adjust the machine’s adjustable feet so that it can stand level and balanced� Proper positioning of the machine ensures problem-free opening and closing of the door�

• If the door of your machine does not close properly, check if the machine is stable on the floor it stands; if not, adjust the feet and ensure its stable position�

Inlet water supply

• Water pressure: 800kPa max – 50 kPa min�

• Water flow rate 10 L/minute�

• If water pressure is in excess of 800 k Pa, a pressure reducing valve should be used� Check for leaks�

• If water temperature is in excess of 60°C, a tempering valve should be used� Check for leaks�

CAUTION

Always use new hoses when you connect the appliance to the water mains� Old hoses must not be used� The water inlet hose must be examined at an interval of twelve months for deterioration and replaced if necessary�

In order to pass the safety valve through the kitchen cabinets, an opening of at least 45mm x 90mm is needed�

Water connection

Connect the inlet hose to a water tap with an external BSP thread spout of 3/4”�

For best washing performance it is recommended to connect the appliance to a cold water supply�

Energy savings can be made by connecting the appliance to a solar water system and using economy options, however the water temperature must not exceed 60°C

CAUTION

Only turn the locking nut to secure the hose. Do not turn the hose.

Water drain hose

min� 4cm

max� 110cm

min� 50cm

The water drain hose can be connected either directly to the water drain hole or to the sink outlet spigot� Using a special bent pipe (if available), the water can be drained directly into the sink via hooking the bent pipe over the edge of the sink� This connection should be at a minimum of 50cm and at a maximum of 110cm from the floor�

CAUTION

When a drain hose longer than 4m is used, the dishes wont be cleaned properly and might remain dirty.

Installing a freestanding dishwasher

If the under counter height is greater than 850mm, the dishwasher can be installed without removing the worktop�

If the under counter space is less than 850mm but greater than 820mm the worktop will need to be removed�

To remove the worktop, remove the screws located at the rear of the machine, then, from the front, push the worktop towards the rear and lift�

Incorrect

To ensure stability of the dishwasher in an undercounter installation, any gap between the dishwasher and the underside of the countertop should be bridged with a packing piece� This may be achieved by wedging a piece of timber between the dishwasher and the underside of the countertop�

Cleaning the machine

• Clean the filters and spray arms at least once a week�

• Unplug your machine and turn off its tap before starting the cleaning�

• Do not use hard materials when cleaning your machine� Wipe with a fine cleaning material and a dampened cloth�
