ARISTON DISHWASHER - Instructions for installation and use
D
ISHWASHER
If the power socket
to which the
appliance is
connected is not
compatible with the
plug, replace it with
a suitable plug rather
than using adapters
or multiple plugs as
these could cause
overheating or
burns.
Installation and moving
After having bought or moved your dishwasher to another home, a correct installation
ensures that your dishwasher will operate smoothly and efficiently.
connection, taking care to screw it
tightly onto the tap.
If the water hoses are new or
have been out of use for an
extended period of time, let the
water run to make sure it is
clear and free of impurities
before making the connection.
If this precaution is not taken,
the water inlet could get
blocked, causing damage to
your dishwasher.
Hot water connection.
Your dishwasher can be
supplied with hot water from
the mains supply (if you have a
central heating system with
radiators) at a temperature of
no more than 60°C.
In this case, the wash cycle time
will be about 15 minutes
shorter and the wash will be
slightly less effective.
The connection must be made
to hot water supply following
the same procedures as those
indicated for the cold water
connection.
Anti-flooding
protection
Your dishwasher is provided
with a special system which
blocks the water supply in the
event of leaks inside the
appliance. It is further equipped
with a water inlet hose
comprising an outer clear hose
and an inner red hose, which
can both withstand extremely
high pressures. Should the
inner hose break, the outer
hose will consequently turn red.
Safety in the event of flooding
is ensured by the second clear
hose that contains the former.
It is vital that you check the
outer hose regularly: if you see
it has turned bright red, then
you know you have to replace it as
soon as possible. Call for an
authorised technical engineer to
come and replace it.
Drain hose connection.
Fit the drain pipe into a drain line
with a minimum diameter of 4 cm
or place it over the sink. Avoid
restricting or bending it. Use the
special plastic elbow provided (see
figure) to position it in the best
possible way. The part of the pipe
marked with the letter A should be
between 40 and 100 cm above the
ground.
The pipe should not be immersed
in water.
Electrical connection.
First of all, check that the mains
voltage and frequency values
correspond to those stated on the
rating plate located on the stainless
steel inner door of the appliance
and that the electrical system to
which the dishwasher is connected
is sized for the maximum current
indicated on said rating plate.
Choose where you want to
install your dishwasher, you
can even place it so that its
sides or back panel are side by
side with furniture or up against
the wall. The dishwasher is
provided with water supply and
drain hoses, which can be
directed towards the left or
right to facilitate appropriate
installation.
This dishwasher model can be
built under a single worktop
(please read the relevant
instruction sheet).
Levelling.
Once the appliance is
positioned, adjust the feet by
screwing them in or out
depending on how high you
want it and to level it so that it
is horizontal. Make sure that it
is not inclined more than 2
degrees. If the appliance is
level, it will help ensure its
correct operation.
Cold water connection.
This electric household
appliance should be connected
to the water mains using the
cold water supply hose
provided with the appliance
only. Do not use a different
hose. In the event of replace-
ments, use original spare parts
only.
Connect the cold water supply
hose to a 3/4 gas threaded con-
nection, placing the small filter
provided between the hose and

A
The special plastic
elbow should be
fastened firmly onto
the wall to prevent
the drain hose from
moving and allowing
water to spill outside
the drain.
Earth: indispensable
safety.
Only now can you plug the
appliance into a socket provided
with an efficient earth connection
(the system's earthing is a
guarantee of safety provided for by
law, make sure your system has
it).
Power supply wire.
Check the power supply wire
on a regular basis; if it is
damaged, we recommend you
have it replaced by an
authorised technical Assistance
service centre.
The plug
The dishwasher plug must be
accessible even when the
appliance is installed so that
maintenance can be done safely.
