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 ex-

tended 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.

Positioning

the appliance

Place

the appliance in the desired

location

. The back should rest against the wall behind it, 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.

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, 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 contains 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 service center.

Levelling the appliance

Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them

in or out) to adjust the dishwasher, making it level. In any case,

the appliance should not be inclined more than 2˚. If the appli-

ance is level, it will help ensure proper performance.

Installation

Warning

The appliance is to be connected to the

water mains using new hose-sets and

that old hose-sets should not be reused.
