MACHINE POSITIONING

• When positioning the machine, place it in an area where dishes can be easily loaded and unloaded. Do
not put the machine in an area where the ambient temperature falls below 0°C.
• Read all warnings located on the packaging before removing the packaging and positioning the
machine.
• Place the machine close to a water tap and drain. Take into consideration that the connections will not
be altered once the machine is in position.
• Do not hold the machine by its door or panel.
• Leave an adequate distance around the machine to allow ease of movement when cleaning.
• Ensure the water inlet and outlet hoses are not squeezed or trapped and that the machine does not stand
on the electrical cable while positioning.
• Adjust the feet so the machine is level and balanced. The machine should be placed on flat ground
otherwise it will be unstable and the door of the machine will not close properly.
• If the appliance door does not close properly, check that the appliance stands firmly on the ground, if
not, adjust the legs and ensure position stability.

WATER CONNECTION

We recommend fitting a filter to your water inlet supply in order to prevent damage to your machine due
to contamination (sand, rust, etc.) from indoor plumbing. This will also help prevent yellowing and deposit
formation after washing.

WATER INLET HOSE

Use the new water inlet hose supplied with your machine, do not use an old machine's
hose.
Run water through the new hose before connecting.
Connect the hose directly to the water inlet tap. The pressure supplied by the tap should
be a minimum of 0.03 MPa and a maximum of 1 MPa. If the pressure exceeds 1 MPa,
a pressure relief valve must be fitted between the connection.
After the connections are made, turn the tap on fully and check for water leaks. Always
turn off the water inlet tap after a wash program has finished.
An Aquastop water spout is available with some models. Do not damage it or do not
allow it to bend or twist.

DRAIN HOSE

Connect water drain hose directly to water drain hole or to the sink outlet spigot. Using a special bent tube (if
available), water can be drained directly into the sink by hooking the bent tube to the edge of the sink. This
connection should be minimum 50 cm and maximum 110 cm from flor plane.
