reference. If the appliance is sold, given away or moved,
please ensure the manual is kept with the machine, so that the
new owner may benefit from the advice contained within it.
Please read this instruction manual carefully: it contains
important information regarding the safe installation, use and
maintenance of the appliance.
If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it in an
upright position; if absolutely necessary, it may be tilted onto
its back.

Positioning and levelling

1. Remove the appliance from all packaging and check that it
has not been damaged during transportation.
If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not
proceed any further with the installation process.
2. Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its sides or back
panel are in contact with the adjacent cabinets or even with the
wall. This appliance can also be recessed under a single
*
worktop (see the Assembly instruction sheet).
3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. If the floor
is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be adjusted until it
reaches a horizontal position (the angle of inclination must not
exceed 2 degrees). If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will
be more stable and much less likely to move or cause
vibrations and noise while it is operating.
4. Adjust the height of the rear feet from the front of the
*
appliance : use a screwdriver to tighten or loosen the screws
on the lower part of the dishwasher.
Connecting the water and electricity
supplies
Connection to the water and electricity supplies should
only be performed by a qualified technician.
The dishwasher should not stand on top of the water
hoses or the electricity supply cable.
The appliance must be connected to the water supply
network using new piping.
- Do not use old piping.
The water inlet (A) and outlet (B) hoses and the electricity
supply cable may be positioned towards the right or the left in
order to achieve the best possible installation (see figure).
"
• To a suitable cold water connection point: before attaching
the hose, run the water until it is perfectly clear so that any
impurities that may be present in the water do not clog the
appliance; after performing this operation, screw the inlet
hose tightly onto a tap with a ¾ gas threaded connection.
• To a suitable hot water connection point: your dishwasher
may be provided with hot water from the mains supply (if
you have a central heating system with radiators)
provided that it does not exceed a temperature of 60°C.
Screw the hose to the tap as described for connection to a
cold water supply.
If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist
store or an authorised technician (see Assistance).
The water pressure must be within the values indicated in
the Technical data table (see below).
The hose should not be bent or compressed.
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
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).
Under no circumstance should the water inlet hose be cut as it
contains live electrical parts.
