Installation
5
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
The dishwasher must be earthed and the manufacturer and seller do not accept
•
responsibility for any damage due to incorrect electrical connection.
The machine should be plugged into a 15 Amp, 230 Volt 50 Hz earthed 3 pin wall socket.
•
.
For safety reasons, the wall socket and the plug should be accessible after installation.
•
If the power cord should ever need replacing, use only a genuine cord available from the
nearest Defy Service Centre. Repairs should only be made by a qualified technician.
WATER CONNECTION
Use a screw on hose connector to secure the filler hose to a 3/4 inch threaded cold water tap.
•
The water supply pressure must be between 30 kPa and 1Mpa..
•
If the supply plumbing is new or has not been used for some time, it is advisable to run the water
•
until it is clear and free from dirt. We recommend fitting a filter to the water tap to prevent
impurities such as sand or rust from entering the washer.
Do not use an old hose and only use the hose supplied with the dishwasher.
•
Ensure that the inlet hose is not twisted, bent or squeezed shut.
•
There are two different types of water inlet hoses: Cold water inlet hose (up to 25°C) and
•
hot water inlet hose (up to 60°C). Please check which one is applicable to your model.
DRAIN REQUIREMENTS
Secure the end of the drain hose to a
•
drain pipe with an inside diameter of at
least 4cm.
The outlet end of the drain pipe should be
•
between 50cm and 100cm above ground
level.
Do not use an old hose and only use the
•
hose supplied with the dishwasher.
Take care not to kink, twist or squeeze the
•
drain hose.
