5.1.2 Levelling the appliance
Level the appliance using the relative adjustable feet
(e.g.: ref. A fig. 5-02);
use an open-ended wrench to rotate the feet until the
dishwasher is perfectly level.
Some models are fitted with just one rear foot which can
be adjusted with a screw located at the bottom front of
the appliance (ref. A fig. 5-03); use a suitable Phillips
screwdriver to turn the screw until the dishwasher is
perfectly level.
Use a spirit level to check the appliance is perfectly level
(ref. B fig. 5-02).
Leveling is vital for assuring correct dishwasher
operation.
Make sure to leave a gap of at least 3 mm (7/64")
between the top of the dishwasher and the worktop (ref.
C fig. 5-02).

5.2 Connections
Install the dishwasher so as to allow ease of access to
the electrical and hydraulic connections through the
adjacent unit. These connections must never be behind
the dishwasher.
The inlet and drain hoses can be pointed in all
directions. make sure that they are not bent, crushed or
too tight. Tighten the ring nut after pointing the hoses in
the required direction.
Figure 5-04 indicates the distances to maintain between
the dishwasher and the various connections.
Fire hazard!
Do not cover or crush the cord plug.
Fig. 5-04
A through hole with a diameter of at least 8 cm (5/32") is
required to pass the hoses and power cord (ref. A fig. 5-
05). Make sure there area no rough edges that could
damage the power cord or hoses. If the dishwasher is
installed in a metal unit protect the edge of the through
hole for the hoses and power cord with a gasket. Do not
use extension cords when making the electrical
connection as these do not guarantee safety.
Attention!
Installing the dishwasher in a narrow space may bend or
crush the power cord. Take great care in order to reduce
the possibility of damaging the power cord when
installing or removing the appliance.
