4. Installation
4-1.Positioning the appliance
Positioning the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it,
and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply
and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation.
4-2.Leveling the appliance
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in or out) to adjust the
dishwasher, making it level. In any case, the appliance should not be inclined more than 2°. If the
appliance is level, it will help ensure proper performance.
4-3.Cold water connection
The IDW12P-E model is fitted with an "Aquastop" water supply hose(see fig.A)
in which a small filter is housed in the threaded end.
Connect the water supply hose to a standard threaded water outlet connector,
making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (IDW12P-U model only,see fig.B).
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended
period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear and free of
impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there is a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and
damage the appliance.
NOTE:
The minimum water pressure is 0.03 Megapascals.
The maximum water pressure is0.6 Megapascals.
Warning：
The appliance is to be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets and that old
hose-sets should not be reused.
4-4.Anti-Flooding protection
The dishwasher is equipped with a system that stops the supply of water in the event of a problem
with the water supply hose, or leaks within the unit, in order to prevent damage to your home. If
for any reason the box containing the electrical components happens to get damaged, remove
the plug for the appliance from the socket immediately. In order to guarantee that the anti-flooding
feature operates properly, the "A" box with water supply hose must be attached to the water
supply tap as shown in fig.A. No other type of connection is acceptable. The water supply hose
must not, under any circumstances, be cut, as it contains electrical parts which are live.If the
length of the hose is not adequate to make a proper connection, the hose must be replaced with
one which is long enough. This hose is available upon request from specialised retailers and
service center.

4-5.Drain hose connection
Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4cm, or let it run into the sink,
making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. If necessary, fit a syphon trap (U-bend) with a
connecting piece for the drain hose (fig.C). The free end of the hose must be at a height between
40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in water.
Attention:
The connecting piece for syphon trap (U-bend) must be solidly fastened to the wall to
prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to spill outside the drain.
4-6.Electrical Connection
After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for the current in the home correspond to
those on the rating plate (located on the stainless steel inner door of the appliance) and that the
electrical system is correct for the maximum voltage on the rating plate, insert the plug into an
electrical socket which is earthed properly (the earthing of the appliance is a safety requirement
mandated by law).If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not
appropriate for the plug, replace the whole cable, rather than using adaptors as they could cause
overheating and risk of fire.
Caution:
The dishwasher plug must be accessible even when the appliance is installed as a built-in
unit so that maintenance can be done safely.

4-8.Fitting instructions for the integrated dishwasher
Technical Information for Installation
The control panel (except in the completely built-in version) can be easily aligned with the kitchen
drawers, using the spacers supplied with the appliance ( see Fig.1 and Fig.2).The height of the
control panel is 115 mm, while the three spacers each add 7.5 mm in height.
Adjusting the Height of the Control Panel
If the kitchen decor requires that the height of the panel be modified , it can be increased by
adding spacers at the bottom of the control panel itself (see Fig.1 and Fig.2). Each spacer adds
7.5 mm in height.
Mounting the Wooden Panel onto the Door and Sliding the Dishwasher into the Cabinet
During the preparatory stages for installing the dishwasher into the kitchen cabinet, holes must
not be drilled in the sides, or door, in order to avoid compromising the performance and/or
operation of the appliance. Before working on any internal components, the unit must be
disconnected from the power supply.The maximum dimensions for the wood panel that can be
installed on the door are: Height - 610 mm ( 725 mm for the completely built-in version); Width –
598 mm; Thickness:20 mm.
The height dimension of 610 mm must be reduced if the height of the control panel is increased
through the use of the spacers. In addition, the base must be trimmed if it interferes with the
opening of the door.
Using the Drilling Template (Fig.3 – totally built-in and Fig.4 - integrated with control
panel )
Align the top edge of the template (identified with the “A” arrow ) with the top edge of the panel.
On both sides of the template (top and bottom ) are written the various dimensions that
correspond to the different possible widths for the panel. Align the template with the side of the
panel (left or right), making sure that the panel coincides with the appropriate dimensions. Mark
the positions for the holes for the screws, using the tip of a drill or a pencil. The three holes closest
to the side should be used(B). Repeat this step on the other side of the panel ,using the
corresponding side of the template.

Fastening the Bracket to the Wooden Panel (Fig.5 - totally built-in )- (Fig.6 integrated with
control panel)
At the point marked, drill holes 2 mm in diameter . If the panel is made of chip board , only drill
through the veneer. If the panel is made of solid wood, the holes can be made deeper. Position
the two brackets so that they are lined up with the holes made in the bottom part of the panel. The
holes furthest to the outside should be used to fasten the brackets. The small fins should be
turned downward. The hooks in the totally built-in version should be screwed into the two holes at
the top.
Mounting the Wood Door Panel onto the Dishwasher
Place the wood panel onto the door of the dishwasher.
Then perform the installation steps described below, based on whether the panel is for a totally
built-in model or integrated with the control panel.
Panel Integrated with the Control Panel
Insert the metal fins into the slots located on the dishwasher door, hooking the panel into place by
sliding it to the right (see Fig.7).

Totally Built- in Panel
Insert the top hooks into the appropriate slots in the dishwasher control panel. Then push the
panel upwards until it stops. Afterwards , slide the panel downward again, moving the bottom of
the panel toward the door so that the fins on the brackets slide into their slots (Fig.8).
In both cases, open the doors of the dishwasher (the panel should stay in place by itself) and
align the panel with the door, keeping it in contact with the control panel. Remove the small plastic
plugs that cover the holes on the inside of the dishwasher door and fasten the panel in place with
the screws provided (Fig. 9).Remember to cover the two holes with the plastic plugs removed
earlier.
Adjusting the Door Springs (Fig.10B)
The door must be perfectly balanced. In the factory , the tension of the springs is regulated to
ensure that the door is perfectly balanced when light wood door panels are mounted on the door.
If heavier, solid wood door panels are used, the door can be balanced by simply turning the two
screws (both screws must be turned the same amount) located on the top part of the machine.
Installation of Continuous Base Moulding
Position the washing machine in the cut-out in the kitchen cabinet:
1.Install the continuous base moulding , following the manufacturer’s instructions .
2.Slowly open the door of the dishwasher to check to see if the door strikes or rubs against the
base moulding.

6. How to fill the salt
6-1.Salt
The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher,
deposits will form on the dishes and utensils.
The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt specifically designed to
eliminate lime and minerals from the water.
6-2.Loading the salt into the container
Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers.
The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:
●Remove the lower rack and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container;
●If you are filling the container for the first time, fill it with water;
●Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and
introduce about 2 kg of salt. It is normal for a small amount
of water to come out of the salt container.
●Carefully screw the cap back on.
Important
To prevent the formation of rust, load the salt just before beginning a wash cycle.
6-3.Adjusting salt consumption
The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount
of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used.
This is intended to optimize and customize the level of salt
consumption so that it remains at a minimum.
To adjust salt consumption, proceed as follows:
●Unscrew the cap from the salt container;
●There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see figure to the side),
●If necessary, rotate the ring in an anticlockwise direction from the "-" setting towards the "+" sign,
based on thehardness of the water being used.
It is recommended that adjustments be made in accordance with the following table:
