WARNING:
A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a
serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure that the cut
off plug is disposed of safely.
The plug must still be accessible after the appliance has
been installed.
The appliance should not be connected to
the electrical supply by means of an
extension cable.
In case that the electrical cable has to be
replaced, please contact our extended
warranty administrators on 0870 0107887
who will give you details for your local
Service Force repair agent.
Important!
If the mains supply cable is damaged it must
be replaced; contact our warranty
administrators on 0870 010 7887 who will
give you details for your local Service Force
repair agent.
Permanent connection
In the case of permanent connection it is necessary that you
install a double pole switch between the appliance and the
electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap of 3mm between
the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in
compliance with the current electrical regulations.
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth cable at
any point.
Any electrical and/or plumbing work required to
install this appliance should be carried out by a
qualified electrician and/or plumber or competent
person.
Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.
If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a drain.
Water supply connections
We recommend that this dishwasher is connected to your cold
water supply.
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.
The water pressure must be within the limits given in the
"Technical specifications" shown on page 6.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 up.
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. (Important! 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.
Water inlet hose with safety valve
After connecting the double-walled water inlet hose, the safety
valve is next to the tap.Therefore the water inlet hose is only
under pressure while the water is running. If the water inlet hose
starts to leak during this operation, the safety valve cuts off the
running water.
Please take care when installing the water inlet hose:
- The electrical cable for the safety valve is in the double-
walled water inlet hose. Do not immerse the water inlet hose
or the safety valve in water.
- If water inlet hose or the safety valve is damaged, remove
the mains plug immediately.
- A water inlet hose with safety valve must only be replaced by
a specialist or by the Service Force Centre.
- Place the water inlet hose in such a way that it is never
higher than the bottom edge of the safety valve.
