Extension hoses
•
Extension hoses are available from
your dealer or from our Customer
Care Department. To ensure that
the function of the appliance is not
impeded, the internal diameter of
extension hoses must be 19 mm.
•
Extension hoses must not be laid
more than a maximum distance of
3 metres horizontally; the maxi-
mum permitted height for the con-
nection for the drain hose is then
85 cm.
Sink outlet connection
•
The outlet of the drain hose (ø 19 mm) fits all commonly available
sink outlet types. The outer diameter of the sink outlet connection
must be at least 15 mm.
•
The drain hose must be fixed to the sink outlet connection using the
hose clamp supplied.
Water drainage if the dishwasher is built-in at high level
If the dishwasher is installed at a high level, and the drain hose connec-
tion is less than 30 cm from the lower edge of the appliance, adapter
kit ET 111099520 must be fitted by the Customer Care Department.
Anti-flood system
For protection from water damage, the dishwasher is equipped with a
anti-flood system.
In the event of a fault, the safety valve in the water inlet hose immedi-
ately interrupts the supply of water to the appliance and the drain
pump is activated. In this way water can neither escape nor overflow.
The remaining water in the appliance is automatically pumped out.
