door hinge area has to be covered for safety
reasons (risk of injury). The covers are available
as an accessory and can be ordered through the

2.3 Water supply connection
CONNECTING TO THE WATER SUPPLY
Connect the intake hose to a cold water supply
with ¾” gas thread, inserting the filter A
supplied with the dishwasher. Take care to
screw the hose firmly into place with your
hands and then complete by tightening
about ¼ of a turn with pliers.
In dishwashers equipped with the
AQUASTOP device, the filters is already
fitted inside the threaded rin
g
.
The dishwasher can also be connected to a hot
water supply not exceeding 60°C. Supplying the
appliance with hot water cuts down the washing
time be approximately 20 minutes, but slightly
reduces its effectiveness. Make the connection to
the domestic hot water supply using the same
procedure described for connecting to the cold
water supply.
Supplementary note regarding the water
connection, for the German market:
Before connecting the product to the water supply,
make sure that that the water system has been fitted
with a safety device to protect drinking water against
contamination due to backflow (according to DIN EN
1717). The water valves and/or taps are fitted with these
safety devices if the water system of the house has
been properly implemented.

Installation
13
DRAIN CONNECTION
Insert the dishwasher’s drain hose
into a drain pipe having a diameter
of at least 4 cm, or alternatively,
place it inside the kitchen sink using
the plastic support provided, taking
care not to crush or excessively
bend the hose. It is important to
prevent the hose from coming loose
and falling. For this purpose, the
plastic support is equipped with a
hole for tying it to the wall or water
tap.
The free end should be positioned at
a height of between 30 and 100 cm,
and should never be submerged in
water.
If a horizontal drain extension hose is used (for a
maximum 3 m), the drain hose can be placed at a
maximum height of.85 cm from the ground.

socket outlet must be of the same type and meet the
regulations in force.
The plug must be accessible after installation.
Never disconnect the plug by pulling on the
power suppl
y
lead.

A
fter changing the supply cord, make sure that the
bracket which secures the cord is fixed securely in
place.
Do not use adaptors or shunt connections in
order to avoid the possibility of overheating or
burnin
