Anti-flooding protection*

To ensure floods do not occur, the dishwasher:

- is provided with a special system which blocks the
water supply in the event of anomalies or leaks from
inside the appliance.
- is provided with a 

Water Stop* safety device, in other

words it has a water inlet hose that consists of a
transparent hose on the outside and a red hose on the
inside: both the hoses can withstand extremely high
pressure. If the internal hose breaks, the external hose
becomes a bright red colour and carries the water
instead, thus avoiding any leakage.

 It is very important to check the external hose

regularly: if it is a bright red colour, it must be replaced
by an authorised technician as soon as possible (

see

Assistance).

* Only available in selected models.

Sink Waste System

For under sink drainage:

• before connecting the drain hose, remove any

internal restrictions; this will prevent a build up of
debris which could cause a blockage

• remove any restrictions from the waste spigot and

ensure that the sealing bung is removed

• the hose should be routed, such that it is raised

to a minimum height of 800mm (31/2”).

   Ensure the sink outlet pipe has a minimum diamtere

of 32mm.

• Untie the end of the
GREY drainage hose from
the rear of the appliance.

• Reposition the ‘Hooked
End Support’ as required
along the GREY drainage
hose.

•  If fitting an under sink waste disposal unit, cut out

the membrane, bung or blanking plug.

 Ensure the drain hose is securely attached, to

prevent it coming away while the machine is in use
and causing a flood.
