Installation

Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for

future reference. If the appliance is sold, given away or

moved, please ensure the manual is kept with the

machine, so that the new owner may benefit from the

advice contained within it.

Please read this instruction manual carefully: it

contains important information regarding the safe

installation, use and maintenance of the appliance.

If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it in

an upright position; if absolutely necessary, it may be

tilted onto its back.

This appliance is intended to be used in household and

similar applications such as:
- staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working
environments;
- farm houses;
- by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type
environments;
- bed and breakfast type environments.

Positioning and levelling

1. Remove the appliance from all packaging and check

that it has not been damaged during transportation.

If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not

proceed any further with the installation process.
2. Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its sides or

back panel are in contact with the adjacent cabinets or

even with the wall. This appliance can also be recessed
under a single worktop

*

(see the Assembly instruction

sheet).
3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. If

the floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be

adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position. If the

appliance is levelled correctly, it will be more stable and

much less likely to move or cause vibrations and noise

while it is operating.

4. Adjust the height of the rear foot from the front of the
appliance

*

on the central lower part of the dishwasher, turning

a hexagonal spanner (red color) with an opening of 8 mm in a
clockwise direction to increase the height or in an
anticlockwise direction to decrease the height.

Connecting the water and electricity

supplies

Connection to the water and electricity supplies

should only be performed by a qualified technician.

The dishwasher should not stand on top of the water

hoses or the electricity supply cable.

The appliance must be connected to the water

supply network using new hoses.

Do not use old hoses.
The water inlet and outlet hoses and the electricity

supply cable may be positioned towards the right or the
left in order to achieve the best possible installation.

Connecting the water inlet hose

• To a suitable cold water connection point: before

attaching the hose, run the water until it is perfectly

clear so that any impurities that may be present in the

water do not clog the appliance; after performing this

operation, screw the inlet hose tightly onto a tap with

a ¾ gas threaded connection.

• To a suitable hot water connection point: your

dishwasher may be supplied with hot water from the

mains supply (if you have a central heating system

with radiators) provided that it does not exceed a

temperature of 60°C.

Screw the hose to the tap as described for connection

to a cold water supply.

If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a

specialist store or an authorised technician (see

Assistance).

The water pressure must be within the values

indicated in the Technical data table (see adjacent

information).

The hose should not be bent or compressed.

Connecting the water outlet hose

Connect the outlet hose (without bending it) to a drain

duct with a minimum diameter of 4 cm.

The outlet hose must be at a height ranging from 40 to

80 cm from the floor / surface where the dishwasher

rests (A).

Before connecting the water outlet hose to the sink
drain, remove the plastic plug (B).
