2. Installation and hook-up
Remove the polystyrene basket retainers. Position the appliance in the
desired place of installation. The back or sides of the dishwasher may be
placed up against walls or other furniture units. If the dishwasher is installed
near a heat source, fit the special insulating panel to prevent overheating
and malfunction of the appliance. To ensure stability, install integrated or
built-under dishwashers only under continuous worktops, and screw them
to the adjacent units. To facilitate the installation procedure, the intake and
drain hoses can be positioned in any direction; make sure that the hoses
are not kinked, crushed or pulled too tightly. A hole at least 8 cm in
diameter is required to allow the power supply cable and pipes to pass.
Level the appliance on the floor using its adjustable feet. This operation
is essential for ensuring correct operation of the dishwasher.
Some models are equipped with only one adjustable foot at the rear,
which can be adjusted by turning the screw on the lower front part of the
appliance.
2.1 Water supply connection
Preventing the risk of clogging or damage: if the water pipe is new or
has not been used for a long time, before connecting to the water supply
check that the water is clear and free of impurities, to prevent damage to
the appliance.
The dishwasher must always be connected to the water system
with new hoses; old or used hoses must never be reused.
CONNECTING TO THE WATER SUPPLY
Connect the intake hose to a cold water supply
with ¾” gas thread, inserting the filter

with the dishwasher.
Take care to screw the hose firmly into place
with your hands and then complete by
tightening about ¼ of a turn with pliers.
In dishwashers equipped with the
ACQUASTOP device, the filters is already
fitted inside the threaded ring.
