the machine once the packaging has been
removed. Do not operate the machine if it appears
damaged or if the packaging has been opened.
•Packaging materials protect your machine
from any damage that might occur during
transportation. The packaging materials are
environmentally friendly as they are
recyclable. Use of recycled material reduces
raw material consumption and decreases
waste production.
•Choose a suitable and safe place to install
your machine.
•Only original spare parts should be used with
the machine.
Unplug the machine before installation.
Your machine must only be installed by an
authorised service agent. Installation by anyone
other than an authorised agent may cause your

connected in line with safety regulations.
All electrical connections must match the
values on the plate.
Ensure the machine does not stand on the
electrical supply cable.
Never use an extension cord or a multiple
socket connection.
The plug should be accessible after the
machine is installed.
After installation, run your machine unloaded for the
first time.

machine.
I If the electrical cable is damaged, it should only
be replaced by a qualified electrician.

This machine is for domestic use only, do not use it for
other purposes. Commercial use will void the

Due to the danger of explosion, do not place
any chemical dissolving agents into the machine's
washing section.

suitable for dishwashing and take care not to overfill the
baskets.
This appliance can be used by children

WARNING: Use the new water inlet hose
supplied with your machine, do not use an old
machine’s hose.
WARNING: Run water through the new hose
before connecting.
WARNING: Connect the hose directly to the
water inlet tap. The pressure supplied by the tap
should be a minimum of 0.03 MPa and a maximum of
1 MPa. If the pressure exceeds 1 MPa, a pressure relief
valve must be fitted between the connection.
WARNING: After the connections are made,
turn the tap on fully and check for water leaks. Always
turn off the water inlet tap after a wash program has
finished.
Installing your Dishwasher
Bringing it all together
3.1 Positioning your Machine
When positioning the machine, place it in an area
where dishes can be easily loaded and unloaded. Do
not put the machine in an area where the ambient
temperature falls below 0°C.
Read all warnings located on the packaging before
removing the packaging and positioning the machine.
Place the machine close to a water tap and drain. Take
into consideration that the connections will not be
altered once the machine is in position.
Do not hold the machine by its door or panel.
Leave an adequate distance around the machine to
allow ease of movement when cleaning.
Ensure the water inlet and outlet hoses are not
squeezed or trapped and that the machine does not
stand on the electrical cable while positioning.
Adjust the feet so the machine is level and balanced.
The machine should be placed on flat ground
otherwise it will be unstable and the door of the
machine will not close properly.
3.2 Water Connection
We recommend fitting a filter to your water inlet supply
in order to prevent damage to your machine due to
contamination (sand, rust, etc.) from indoor plumbing.
This will also help prevent yellowing and deposit
formation after washing.
Note printing on the water inlet hose!
If models are marked with 25°, the water temperature
may be max. 25 °C (cold water).
For all other models:
Cold water preferred; hot water max.
temperature 60 °C.
3.3 Water inlet hose
An Aquastop water spout is available with
some models. Do not damage it or allow it to
become kinked or twisted.

drain hose longer than 4 m is used.
3.5 Electrical Connection

Installing your Dishwasher
The earthed plug of the machine must be
connected to an earthed outlet supplied by
suitable voltage and current.

authorised electrician should carry out an earthing
installation. In the case of use without earthing
installed, we will not be responsible for any loss of
use that may occur.

WARNING: The countertop, of which the machine
will be placed under, must be stable in order to prevent
imbalance.
The top panel of the dishwasher must

it on, located at the rear of the machine. Then, push the
panel 1 cm from the front towards the rear and lift it.
Adjust the machine feet according to the slope of the
floor (3).
Fit your machine by pushing it under the counter taking
