Connection To The Water Supply; Drain Connection - Smeg UD515D Translation Of The Original Instructions

5.2 Connection to the water supply

Check that the intake water pressure, flow rate and temperature are as stated in the dishwasher's
technical characteristics. If the dynamic pressure exceeds the limit stated in
the technical characteristics, a pressure reducer must be installed. If the
pressure is lower, it might be necessary to fit a special pump to ensure
optimal performance. Connect the water intake hose to a connector with ¾"
gas threaded fitting, inserting the filter "A" provided. The tap must be easily
accessible after installation of the appliance.
Only use new hoses for connection to the water supply. Old hoses or hoses salvaged
from previous installations must not be used.
If the water supply system has been unused for a long time or if work has been done
on it, before connecting the appliance's intake hose run the water to flush the air
and dirt from the pipes.
FOR MODELS WITH A WATER SOFTENER
An "approved" double check valve or some other no less effective device providing
backflow prevention protection to at least fluid category two shall be fitted at the
point of connection between the water supply and the fitting or appliance.
FOR MODELS WITHOUT A WATER SOFTENER
An "approved" single check valve or some other no less effective device providing
backflow prevention protection to at least fluid category two shall be fitted at the
point of connection between the water supply and the fitting or appliance.

5.3 Drain connection

The dishwasher is fitted with a drain pump and can operate with drain connections on the floor or
wall. Before connecting the hose, check that the diameter and height of the wall drain connection
are as stated in the dishwasher's technical characteristics. When connecting the dishwasher's
drain hose, take care to avoid kinks, sharp bends or crushing. Since the drain water temperature
can be very high, the end of the drain hose must be fixed to the drain connection using the hose
clamps provided.
The drain connection must be made in accordance with the relevant national
regulations. Substandard connections may cause flowback and in some cases
pollution.
No extensions must be added to the drain hose supplied with the appliance. Any
extensions might cause drainage problems.
