clude the relevant information, con-
tact the manufacturer of these ap-
pliances to check that the dish-
washer can be installed above or
below these appliances.
▶If no information is available from

der a hob.
▶Do not install the dishwasher near
heat sources, e.g. radiators, heat
storage tanks, ovens or other ap-
pliances that generate heat.
Contact between the appliance and
water pipes may lead to corrosion of
these pipes, possibly causing them
to leak.
▶Check that there is a distance of at
least 5cm between the appliance
and the water pipe. The pipes sup-
plied for the drinking water and
waste water connections are not
affected here.

damage to the appliance.
▶Never kink, crush, modify or cut
through water hoses.
▶Only use the water hoses supplied
with the appliance or genuine
spare hoses.
▶Never re-use water hoses that
have been used before.
If the water pressure is too high or
too low, the appliance may not be
able to operate properly.
▶Make sure that the water pressure
in the water supply system is min.
50kPa (0.5bar) and max.
1000kPa (10bar).
▶If the water pressure exceeds the
maximum value specified, a pres-
sure-reducing valve must be in-
stalled between the drinking water
connection and the hose set of the
appliance.

Different programmes, which can be
found on the control panel of your

The consumption values relate to
normal conditions and a water hard-
ness of 16 - 20°E. Different influen-
