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.
For free-standing models only: if the appliance is not built-in and is
therefore accessible on one side, the door hinge area must be covered
for safety reasons (injury hazard).
The covering fixtures are available as an accessory from specialist
dealers or the After-Sales Service.
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.
