blocked and damage the appliance.
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 tempe-
rature 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.
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.

appliance into a socket provided
with an efficient earth connection

Check the power supply wire on a

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 replacements,
use original spare parts only.
Connect the cold water supply
hose to a 3/4 gas.

not been used for an extended
period of time, let the water run to
