Positioning the appliance
Positioning the appliance in the desired location. The back of the appliance should rest against the wall,
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.
Levelling the appliance
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in or out) to adjust the dishwasher,
making it level. The appliance should not be inclined more than 2˚. If the appliance is level, it will help
ensure proper performance.
Installation
fig.A
Cold water connection
Connect the water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas) connector,
making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see fig.A).
Some models are fitted with an "Aquastop" water supply hose
(see fig.B) in which the small filter is already housed in the
threaded end.
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.
Anti-Flooding protection
The dishwasher is equipped with a system that stops the supply of water in the event of a problem with the water
supply hose, or leaks within the unit, in order to prevent damage to your home. If for any reason the box
containing the electrical components happens to get damaged,
turn off the power supply and
remove the plug
for the appliance from the socket immediately. In order to guarantee that the anti-flooding feature operates
properly, the "A" box with water supply hose must be attached to the water supply tap as shown in fig.B. No other
type of connection is acceptable.The water supply hose must not, under any circumstances, be cut, as it con-
tains electrical parts which are live. If the length of the hose is not adequate to make a proper connection, the
hose must be replaced with one which is long enough. This hose is available upon request from specialised
retailers and
approved
service center.

Warning
The appliance is to be connected to the
water mains using new hose-sets and
that old hose-sets should not be reused.
