INSTALLING THE MACHINE
Positioning the machine
When determining the place to put your machine on, take
care to choose a place where you can easily load and unload
your dishes.
Do not put your machine in any location where there is the
probability for the room temperature to fall below 0°C.
Before positioning, take the machine out of its packaging by
following the warnings located on the package.

9
Position the machine close to a water tap or drain. You
need to site your machine, taking into consideration that its
connections will not be altered once they are made.
Do not grip the machine by its door or panel in order to move
it.
Take care to leave a certain clearance from all sides of the
machine so that you can comfortably move it back and forth
during cleaning.
Make sure that the water inlet and outlet hoses do not get
squeezed while positioning the machine. Also, make sure
that the machine does not stand on the electrical cable.
Adjust the machine’s adjustable feet so that it can stand level
and balanced. Proper positioning of the machine ensures
problem-free opening and closing of its door.
If the door of you machine does not close properly, check if
the machine is stable on the floor it stands; if not, adjust the
adjustable feet and ensure its stable position.
Water connection
Be sure that the indoor plumbing is suitable for installing a
dishwasher. Also, we recommend that you fit a filter at the
entrance of your place or apartment so as to avoid any damage
to your machine because of any contamination (sand, clay,
rust etc.) that might be occasionally carried in through the
mains water supply or the indoor plumbing, and to forestall
such complaints as yellowing and formation of deposits after
washing.

10
Water inlet hose
Do not use the water inlet hose of your
old machine,if any. Use the new water inlet
hose supplied with your machine instead.
If you are going to connect a new or long
- unused water inlet hose to your machine
,run water through it for a while before
making the connection. Connect the water
inlet hose directly to the water inlet tap.
The pressure supplied by the tap should
be at a minimum of 0.03 Mpa and and at a
maximum of 1 Mpa.If the water pressure is
above 1 Mpa,a pressure-relief valve should
be fitted inbetween.
After the connections are made, the tap should be turned on
fully and checked for water tightness.For the safety of your
machine, make sure to always turn off the water inlet tap after
each wash programme is finished.
NOTE: Aquastop water spout is used
in some models. In case of using
Aquastop, a dangerous tension exists.
Do not cut Aquastop water spout. Do
not let it get folded or twisted.

11
Water outlet hose
The water drain hose can be connected
either directly to the water drain hole
or to the sink outlet spigot. Using a
special bent pipe (if available), the
water can be drained directly into the
sink via hooking the bent pipe over
the edge of the sink. This connection
should be at a minimum of 50 cm and
at a maximum of 110 cm from the floor
plane.
Warning: When a drain hose longer than 4 m is used, the
dishes might remain dirty. In that case, our company will not
accept responsibility.

12
Electrical connection
The earthed plug of your machine should be connected to
an earthed outlet supplied by suitable voltage and current. If
there is no earthing installation, have a competent electrician
carry out an earthing installation. In case of usage without
earthing installed, our company will not be responsible for
any loss of usage that might occur.
The indoor fuse current value should be 10-16 A.
Your machine is set according to 220-240 V. If the mains
voltage in your location is 110 V, connect a transformer of
110/220 V and 3000 W inbetween. The machine should not
be plugged in during positioning.
Always use the coated plug supplied with your machine.
Running in low voltage will cause a decline in washing quality.
The machine’s electrical cable should be replaced by an
authorised service or an authorised electrician only. Failure
to do so may lead to accidents.
For safety purposes, always make sure to disconnect the
plug when a wash programme is finished.
In order not to cause an electric shock, do not unplug when
your hands are wet.
When disconnecting your machine from the mains supply,
always pull from the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

13
Fitting the machine undercounter
If you wish to fit your machine undercounter, check whether
you have sufficient space under your countertop and whether
the wiring-plumbing is suitable to do so.1If you decide that
the space under the countertop is suitable for fitting your
machine, remove the worktop as shown in the illustration. 2
Warning:The stand part which we will settle our machine
under it by removing its worktop has to be stable in such a
way not to allow balance disorder.
To remove the worktop, remove the screws that hold the
worktop which are located at the rear of the machine; then
push the front panel 1 cm from the front side towards the rear
and lift it.

are heavily soiled or 15 cm3if they are less soiled.2If your dishes have been kept dirty for a
very long time, if there are dried food wastes on them, and if you have overly loaded the
dishwasher, pour a5cm3detergent into the pre-wash compartment and start your machine.
You may have to add more detergent into your machine, depending on the degree of soil and
on the water hardness level in your area.
Combined detergents
Detergent manufacturers also manufacture combined detergents that are called 2 in 1 – 3 in
1- 5 in 1...
The 2 in1 detergents contain detergent+ salt or rinse aid . While using the 2 in 1 detergents,
it should be observed which functions the tablet consists of.
The other tablet detergents also have detergent+rinse aid +salt+various extra functions.
Generally, combined detergents produce sufficient results under certain usage conditions only.
Such detergents contain rinse aid and/or salt in preset amounts.
Points to consider when using this type of products:
•Always make sure to check the specifications of the product you will use or whether or not
it is a combined product.
•Check if the detergent used is appropriate for the hardness of mains water that machine is
appertaining to.
•Observe the instructions on packagings when using such products.
•If such detergents are in the form of tablets, never put them into the interior section or the
cutlery basket of the dishwasher. Always put the tablets into the detergent compartment in
the detergent dispenser.
