INSTALLING THE MACHINE

Positioning the machine

When determining the place to put your machine on, take care to choose a place where you can
easily load and unload your dishes.
Do not put your machine in any location where there is the probability for the room temperature to fall
below 0° C.
Before positioning, take the machine out of its packaging by following the warnings located on the
package.
Position the machine close to a water tap or drain. You need to site your machine, taking into
consideration that its connections will not be altered once they are made.
Do not grip the machine by its door or panel in order to move it.
Take care to leave a certain clearance from all sides of the machine so that you can comfortably move
it back and forth during cleaning.
Make sure that the water inlet and outlet hoses do not get squeezed while positioning the machine.
Also, make sure that the machine does not stand on the electrical cable.
Adjust the machine's adjustable feet so that it can stand level and balanced. Proper positioning of the
machine ensures problem-free opening and closing of its door.
If the door of your machine does not close properly, check if the machine is stable on the floor it
stands; if not, adjust the adjustable feet and ensure its stable position.
Water connection
Be sure that the indoor plumbing is suitable for installing a dishwasher. Also, we recommend that you
fit a filter at the entrance of your place or apartment so as to avoid any damage to your machine
because of any contamination (sand, clay, rust etc.) that might be occasionally carried in through the
mains water supply or the indoor plumbing, and to forestall such complaints as yellowing and
formation of deposits after washing.
