Water supply connections
This dishwasher may be fed with either hot (max. 60°C)
or cold water.
Nevertheless we advise you a cold water supply.
A hot water supply is not always efficient with very soiled
crockery as it shortens the washing programmes a lot.
The water pressure must be within the limits given in the
technical specifications.
Your local Water Authority will advise you on the average
mains pressure in your area.
The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can
be turned either to the left or the right to suit the
installation.
The locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks.
Avoid bends or kinks in the hose which could prevent or
slow down the water supply.
If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which
have not been used for a long time, you should run the
water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose.
This will prevent deposits of sand or rust clogging the
inlet hose filter.
Be sure to incorporate the filter (A) supplied with the
machine onto the joint.
For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted
to the machine’s supply hose is designed to screw onto
either a 3/4 inch gas thread spout, or to a purpose made
quick-coupling tap such as the Press-block.
To make this easier, the hose itself may be turned to the
left or the right.
Water outlet hose connection
The end of the drain hose can be connected in the
following ways:
1. To the sink outlet siphon, securing it if necessary
with a clip.
2. Hooked over the edge of the sink using the special
curved plastic guide provided.
3. To a stand pipe provided with vent-hole, minimum
internal diameter 4 cm.
The waste connection must be at a height of between
30 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the
bottom of the dishwasher.
The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the
dishwasher
Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could
prevent or slow down the discharge of water.
