5.2.1.1 Connecting to the water tap

Connect the inlet hose to a threaded ¾" gas cold water tap, fi tting the supplied
fi lter (ref. A fi g. 5-06). Firmly secure the hose by tightening the relative ring
nut with your hands (ref. B fi g. 5-06); fi nish by tightening another ¼ turn
using a pair of plumbing pliers. For models fi tted with ACQUASTOP
(ref. C fi g. 5-06) the fi lter is already present in the threaded ring nut.
The dishwasher can be fi lled with water at a temperature of less than
60°C (140°F).
If the appliance is fi lled with hot water, washing times will be reduced by about
20 minutes, but effi ciency will be slightly impaired. Make the connection to the
domestic hot water tap using the same methods described for connecting the
appliance to the cold water tap.
• Recommended temperature: 49°C (120°F), max. 60°C (140°F).
• Recommended water pressure: 0.5 - 9 bar (7 -130 PSI).
If the pressure is too high, fi t a pressure reducer.
A rubber hose connected to a sink spray may burst if installed on the
same pipes feeding the dishwasher. If your sink is fi tted with this ac-
cessory, remove the hose and plug the hole.
