dishwasher installation guide
Thank you for purchasing your Kenwood dishwasher.
Please refer to this guide for the installation process.
1. Remove all packaging before positioning the machine. (Fig 1)
2. Please ensure the dishwasher is installed by a quali ed technician. Refer to the tools
required in Fig 1.
3. Ensure there is enough clearance each side of the unit to allow for slight sideways movement for
servicing when required. Good levelling is essential for the correct closure and sealing of the door.
When the unit is correctly levelled, the door should not catch the inner liner on either side of the
cabinet. The adjustable feet may be loosened or tightened in order to obtain the optimum
levelling of the unit (Fig 2)
4. If required the worktop of the dishwasher is removable and the height is 820 mm without the work
top. Figure 3 outlines the minimum dimensions required to accommodate the dishwasher within
tted kitchen furniture units. Do not connect the unit to the mains before the installation. Ensure
you are not installing the unit right in front of the mains, to avoid potential damage to the back of
the unit. (Fig 3)
5. The condensation strip must be tted to the underside of the worktop above your dishwasher to
protect it against moisture. Its purpose is to de ect steam rising from your appliance to protect
your worktop’s underside. (Fig 4 and 5)
•
Ensure the surface is clean prior to sticking to underside of the worktop.
•
Remove the backing paper from the strip. (Fig 4)
•
Stick the condensation strip to the underside of the worktop. (Fig 5)
NOTE: FAILURE TO ATTACH THE CONDENSATION STRIP COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO
THE UNDERSIDE OF YOUR WORKTOP!
6. Install the aesthetic panel to the dishwasher door as indicated in Fig 6. Ensure the aesthetic
panel weight is a minimum of 3kg and a maximum of 6kg. After the aesthetic panel is
installed, the tension of the dishwasher door spring can be adjusted by rotating the adjusting
screw (Fig 7). If the tension is right, the door will remain horizontal in the fully open position.
7. Position the unit next to a water tap and a drain. Ensure the water inlet and drain hoses are not
kinked or squashed. The unit must not stand on the electrical supply cable. (Fig 8)
8. Make sure your plumbing is suitable for use with the dishwasher. If in doubt contact a quali ed
plumber. This unit MUST BE connected to COLD WATER MAINS using the new water inlet hose.
OLD HOSE SETS MUST NOT BE RE-USED. The water pressure from the water mains needs to be
at a minimum of 0.04 MPa and a maximum of 1.00MPa.
