Installation
GB
Positioning the Appliance
Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should
rest against the wall, and the sides along the adjacent cabinets
or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain
hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate
proper installation.
Levelling the Appliance
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them
in or out) of the dishwasher until it is level. In any case, the
appliance should not be inclined more than 2
°
. If the appliance
is level, it will help ensure proper performance.
Cold Water Connection
Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas) connec-
tor and makeing sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see fig.1).
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an ex-
tended period of time, let the water run to make sure that the
water is clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken,
there is a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and damage
the appliance.
The connection must be made to the hot water line following the
same procedures as those for the connection to the cold water line.
Anti-Flooding Protection
The dishwasher is equipped with a system that stops the supply
of water in the event of a problem with the water supply hose, or
leaks within the unit, in order to prevent damage to your home.
If for any reason the box containing the electrical components
happens to get damaged, remove the plug of the appliance from
the socket immediately. In order to guarantee that the anti-flood-
ing feature operates properly, the box "A" with the water supply
hose must be attached to the water supply tap as shown in Fig.
1. No other type of connection is acceptable. The water supply
hose must not, under any circumstances, be cut, as it contains
electrical parts which are live. If the length of the hose is not
adequate to make a proper connection, the hose must be re-
placed with one which is long enough. This hose is available
upon request from specialised retailers and service centres.
Hot Water Connection
The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the
house's hot water line (centralised system, heating system), as
long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60
.
In this case, the wash efficiency slightly reduced.

Drain Hose Connection
Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of
4cm, or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending or
crimping it. Use the special plastic support that comes with the
appliance (see fig.2). The free end of the hose must be at a height
between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in water.
Attention:
The special plastic hose support must be solidly fastened to the
wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water
to spill outside the drain.
Electrical Connection
After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for the
current in the home correspond to those on the rating plate (located
on the stainless steel inner door of the appliance) and that the
electrical system is sized for the maximum voltage on the rating
plate, insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed prop-
erly (the earthing of the appliance is a safety requirement man-
dated by law).
If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is
not appropriate for the plug, replace the plug rather than using
adapters or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.
