PART 3: INSTALLING THE MACHINE
Machine positioning
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 at ground otherwise it will be unstable and the door of the machine will not close
properly.
Water connection
We recommend tting a lter 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.
Water inlet hose
WARNING!
Use the new water inlet hose supplied with your machine, do not use an old machine’s hose.

EN - 7
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 tted
between the connection.
WARNING!
After the connections are made, turn the tap on fully and check for water leaks. Always turn o the water
inlet tap after a wash program has nished.
An Aquastop water spout is available with some models. Do not damage it or allow it to become kinked or
twisted.
Electrical connection
WARNING!
Your machine is set to operate at 220-240 V. If the mains voltage supply to your machine is 110 V, connect a
transformer of 110/220 V and 3000 W between the electrical connection.
Connect the product to a grounded outlet protected by a fuse complying with the values in the
“Technical Specifications”table”.

The earthed plug of the machine must be connected to an earthed outlet supplied by suitable
voltage and current.
In the absence of earthing installation, an 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.
The plug on this appliance may incorporate 13A fuse depending on the target country. (For Example
UK, Saudi Arabia)
Fitting the machine undercounter
If you wish to t your machine undercounter, there must be sucient space to do so and the wiring-
plumbing must be suitable to do so (1). If the space under the countertop is suitable for tting your machine,
remove the worktop as shown in the illustration (2).
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 be removed to t the machine under the countertop.
To remove the top panel, remove the screws that hold 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 oor (3).
Fit your machine by pushing it under the counter taking care not to crush or bend the hoses (4).
WARNING!
After removing the top panel of your dishwasher, the machine should be placed in a space of the
dimensions shown in the gure below.
