Water connection
Water inlet connection
This appliance may be fed with either hot
(maximum 60 °C) or cold water. Nevertheless
we advise you use a cold water supply. A hot
water supply is not always efficient with heavily
soiled crockery as it shortens the washing
programmes a lot.
For making the connection itself, the coupling
nut fitted to the appliance inlet hose is designed
to screw onto a 3/4" gas thread spout or to a
purpose made quick-coupling tap such as the
Press-block.
The water pressure must be within the limits
given in the ‘Technical data’. Your local Water
Authority will advise you on the average mains
pressure in your area.
The water inlet hose must not be kinked,
crushed, or entangled when it is being
connected.
The appliance features inlet and drain hoses
which can be turned either to the left or the
right to suit the installation by means of the
locknut. The locknut must be correctly fitted to
avoid water leaks.
If the appliance is connected to new pipes or
pipes which have not been used for a long time,
you should run the water for a few minutes
before connecting the inlet hose.
This appliance has been fitted with safety
features which will prevent the water used in the
appliance from returning back into the drinking
water system. This appliance complies with the
applicable plumbing regulations.
Caution! Do not use inlet and
drain hoses which have
previously been used on another
appliance.
Water drain connection
The end of the drain hose can be connected in
the following ways:
• To the sink outlet spigot, securing it to the
underside of the work surface. This will
prevent waste water from the sink running
into the appliance.
• To a stand pipe provided with venthole,
minimum internal diameter 4 cm.
max.
4000 mm
min. 400 mm
max. 850 mm
The drain hose can face either to the right or left
of the appliance.
Ensure the drain hose is not bent or squashed as
this could prevent or slow down the discharge
of water.
