INSTALLATION IN FITTED
KITCHENS
Fitting between existing cabinets
The height of the dishwasher, 85 cm, has
been designed in order to allow the
machine to be fitted between existing
cabinets of the same height in modern
fitted kitchens. The feet can be adjusted
so that correct height is reached.
The laminated top of the machine does
not require any particular care since it is
heatproof, scratchproof and stainproof
(fig. 5).
The work top can be easily adjusted to
line it with the top of existing cabinets;
this is done by moving it by 5 mm each
time up to a maximum of 25 mm.
To adjust it, unscrew the two screws at
the back and fix the top in the position
required (fig. 6).

Opening the door
Put your hand into the recess and pull.
If the machine comes open while it is working,
an electrical safety device automatically
switches everything off.
IMPORTANT
For the machine to work properly,
the door should not be opened while
it is in operation.
Underneath existing work top
(when fitting beneath a work top)
In most modern fitted kitchens there is
only one single work top under which
cabinets and electrical appliances are
fitted. In this case remove the work top
of the dishwasher by unscrewing the
screws under the rear edge of the top
(fig. 6).
The height will then be reduced to 82 cm,
as scheduled by the International
Regulations (ISO) and the dishwasher
will fit perfectly under the kitchen
working top (fig. 7).

pressing on it to make sure it is firmly shut.

WATER SOFTENER UNIT

Depending on the source of the supply,
water contains varying amounts of limestone
and minerals which are deposited on the
dishes leaving whitish stains and marks.
The higher the level of these minerals
present in the water, the harder the water is.
The dishwasher is fitted with a water
softener unit which, through the use of
special
regenerating
salt,
supplies
softened water for washing the dishes.
The softener unit can treat water with a
hardness of up to 60°fH (French grading)
or 33°dH (German grading) through five
different settings.
The degree of hardness of your water can
be obtained from your water supply
company.
Regulating the water softener
The table below lists different degrees of
water hardness with the corresponding set-
ting for the softener unit.
*The water softener unit is set in the
factory at level 2, as this is suitable for the
majority of users.

If your water is at level 0, you need not use
any regenerating salt, nor need you make
any adjustment, as your water is soft.
According to the degree of hardness of
your water, regulate the softener unit in the
following way:
1. remove the lower rack. Unscrew and
remove the cap from the salt dispenser
located in the bottom of the tub
(fig. A"1");
2. turn the selector screw to the required
position with a screwdriver or a knife.
