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. 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 foot from the front of the
appliance on the central lower part of the dishwasher, turning
a hexagonal spanner (red color) with an opening of 8 mm in a
clockwise direction to increase the height or in an anticlockwise
direction to decrease the height.
The dishwasher meets the requirements set out by the
regulations in force concerning safety and electrical equipment.
Any technical checks should be conducted exclusively by
atrainedandauthorisedtechnician:Repairscarriedoutby
unaithorised persons will invalidate the guarantee, as well as
posing a potential hazard to the user.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to
persons or property resulting from failure to observe the above
precautions, from tampering with even a single component or
from the use of non-original spare parts.
