Levelling
Good levelling is essential for correct closure and sealing of the door.
When the appliance is correctly levelled, the door will not catch on either
side of the cabinet.
If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the adjustable feet
until the machine is perfectly level.
Water supply connections
This dishwasher may be fed with either hot (max. 60°) 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.
For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the machine’s
supply hose is designed to screw onto a 3/4" inch gas thread spout or to a
purpose made quick-coupling tap such as the Press-block.
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 water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled when it is
being connected.
The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be turned either to
the left or the right to suit the installation by means of the locknut. The
locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. (Attention! NOT all
models of dishwashers have fill and drain hoses provided with locknut. In
this case, this kind of facility is not possible).
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.
DO NOT use connection hoses which have previously been used for an
old appliance.
This appliance has been fitted with safety features which will prevent the
water used in the appliance from returning back into the drinking water
system. This appliance complies with the applicable plumbing regulations.
