Installation
1.1 Connection to the water supply (1.1.1)
The hose should run between the wall
and the bottom of the dishwasher (1.1.2),
making sure that the pipes are not twisted
or pulled too tight (1.1.3).
The water supply pressure should be
between 0.05 and 1 Mpa (0.5 to 10
kg/cm2)
If your dishwasher has a hot water intake,
you can connect the pipe to the hot water
tap. In this case, the maximum
temperature should not exceed 60ºC.
1.2 Drain. Fit the elbow supplied and
observe the levels in the drawing (1.2.1).
1.3 Connection to the mains electricity
supply. Take the information on the
nameplate (1.3) into account and never
attempt to remove it.
As this is a built-in appliance, the
electrical plug must be accessible after
installation.
1.4 For fitting the dishwasher under a
worktop, first take into account the
dimensions shown in the diagram (1.4.1).
loosen and remove the leg supports
(1.4.2). Then place the dishwasher in
front of the worktop and use a
screwdriver to raise the rear leg from the
front (1.4.3), leaving a space of approx. 3
mm from the worktop.
Insert the dishwasher and ensure that the
pipes and cable do not get trapped
behind the skirting. Adjust it to the
worktop by turning the front legs (1.4.4)
and rear leg (1.4.3) until the top of the
appliance is just touching the worktop.
If the appliance is to form part of a row of
kitchen fittings, fit the kitchen skirting and
if opening the door interferes with it, trim the
end until the door can open properly.
If you need to fit a piece of wood to the
front, follow the instructions that come with
the appliance documentation.
For column mounting, take the height of
the drain into account (1.2.2)
