If the power socket
to which the
appliance is
connected is not
compatible with the
plug, replace it with
a suitable plug rather
than using adapters
or multiple plugs as
these could cause
overheating or
burns.
Installation and moving
After having bought or moved your dishwasher to another home, a correct installation
ensures that your dishwasher will operate smoothly and efficiently.
ments, use original spare parts
only.
Connect the cold water supply
hose to a 3/4 gas threaded
connection, taking care to
screw it tightly onto the tap. If
the water hoses are new or have
been out of use for an extended
period of time, let the water run
to make sure it is clear and free
of impurities before making the
connection. If this precaution is
not taken, the water inlet could
get blocked, causing damage to
your dishwasher.
Hot water connection.
Your dishwasher can be
supplied with hot water from
the mains supply (if you have a
central heating system with
radiators) at a temperature of
no more than 60°C.
In this case, the wash cycle time
will be about 15 minutes
shorter and the wash will be
slightly less effective.
The connection must be made
to hot water supply following
the same procedures as those
indicated for the cold water
connection.
Anti-flooding
protection
Your dishwasher is provided
with a special system which
blocks the water supply in the
event of leaks inside the
appliance. It is further equipped
with a water inlet hose that can
withstand extremely high
pressures and that turns bright
red in the event of breakage.
Safety in the event of flooding
is ensured by the second clear
hose that contains the former
and thus highlights the latter
when it has turned bright red.
It is vital that you check it on a
regular basis: if you see it has
turned bright red, then you
know you have to replace it as
soon as possible. Call for an
authorised technical engineer
to come and replace it.
Drain hose connection.
Fit the drain pipe into a drain line
with a minimum diameter of 4
cm or place it over the sink. Avoid
restricting or bending it. Use the
special plastic elbow provided
(see figure) to position it in the
best possible way. The part of the
pipe marked with the letter A
should be between 40 and 100
cm above the ground.
The pipe should not be immersed
in water.
Electrical connection.
First of all, check that the mains
voltage and frequency values
correspond to those stated on the
rating plate located on the
stainless steel inner door of the
appliance and that the electrical
system to which the dishwasher
is connected is sized for the
maximum current indicated on
said rating plate.
Choose where you want to
install your dishwasher, you
can even place it so that its
sides or back panel are side by
side with furniture or up against
the wall. The dishwasher is
provided with water supply and
drain hoses, which can be
directed towards the left or
right to facilitate appropriate
installation.
Levelling.
Once the appliance is
positioned, adjust the feet by
screwing them in or out
depending on how high you
want it and to level it so that it
is horizontal. Make sure that it
is not inclined more than 2
degrees. If the appliance is
level, it will help ensure its
correct operation.
Adjusting the back Feet
Insert the appliance into the
cutout and then adjust the
height using the screws located
on the front bottom part of the
machine. Use a screwdriver to
turn the screws in the
clockwise or anti-clockwise
direction to increase or
decrease the height
respectively.
Cold water connection.
This electric household
appliance should be connected
to the water mains using the
cold water supply hose
provided with the appliance
only. Do not use a different
hose. In the event of replace-
Your dishwasher has arrived
A
Earth: indispensable
safety.
Only now can you plug the
appliance into a socket provided
with an efficient earth connection
(the system's earthing is a
guarantee of safety provided for by
law, make sure your system has
it).
The plug
The dishwasher plug must be
accessible even when the appliance
is installed as a built-in unit so that
maintenance can be done safely.
Power supply wire.
Check the power supply wire on a
regular basis; if it is damaged, we
recommend you have it replaced
by an authorised technical
Assistance service centre.
Condensation-proof tape.
On some models, a transparent
condensation-proof adhesive
tape has been provided.
It should be stuck onto the
lower side of your wooden
worktop to protect it from the
formation of condensation.
When not provided, this tape
can be requested as a spare part
from authorised retailers.
The special
plastic elbow
should be
fastened firmly
onto the wall to
prevent the drain
hose from
moving and
allowing water to
spill outside the
drain.
