Connection to the water supply

,
Water in the dishwasher must
not be used as drinking water.
– The dishwasher may be connected
to a cold or hot water supply, max.
60 °C. We would only recommend
connection to a hot
water supply if it is economical, e.g.
a solar powered supply. When
connected to a hot water supply all
programme stages which would
otherwise be carried out with cold
water will be carried out with hot wa-
ter.
– The "Without heater" programme (if
available) requires a hot water
supply of between 45 °C (minimum)
and 60 °C (maximum).
The higher the water intake
temperature, the better the cleaning
and drying results.
– The inlet hose is approx. 1.5 m long.
A 1.5 metre long flexible metal
extension hose, pressure tested to
14000 kPa/ 140 bar, is available as
an optional accessory if required.
– A stopcock with a 3/4 " male thread
must be provided on site.
– This appliance is constructed to
comply with IEC/EN/DIN 61770 //
VDE 0700 Section 600, and may be
connected to a suitable supply
without an extra non-return valve if
national regulations permit.

– The water pressure (flow pressure at
the take-off point) must be between
30 and 1000 kPa (0.3 and 10 bar).
If the water pressure is lower than
this, the water inlet fault message will
appear in the display (see "Problem
solving guide").
If the water pressure is too high, a
pressure reducing valve must be
fitted.
!
The inlet hose must not be
shortened or damaged in any way
as it contains electrical components
(see illustration).
