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.
Levelling 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.
Installation
fig.A
Cold water connection
Connect the water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas) connector,
making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see fig.A).
Some models are fitted with an Aquastop water supply hose
(see fig.B) in which the small filter is already housed in the
threaded end.
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.
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.B. 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.
fig.BWarning
The appliance is to be connected to the
water mains using new hose-sets and
that old hose-sets should not be reused.

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 or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.
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.
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 fas-
tened to the wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allow-
ing water to spill outside the drain.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (UK ONLY)
For your safety please read the following information.
Warning: This appliance must be earthed.
The appliance must be connected to a 220-240 volts 50 cycle AC supply by means of a three pin socket,
suitably earthed and should be protected by a 13 amp fuse in the plug or a 15 amp fuse in the consumer
unit.
The appliance is supplied with a moulded 13 amp 3 pin mains plug fitted with a 13 amp fuse. Should the
fuse require replacement, it must be replaced with a fuse rated at 13 amp and approved to BS1362.
The plug contains a removable fuse cover that must be refitted when the fuse is replaced. In the event of
the fuse cover being lost or damaged, the plug must not be used until a replacement cover has been
obtained.
If the moulded mains plug is unsuitable for the socket outlet in your home or is removed for any other
reason, then the fuse should be removed and the cut off plug disposed of safely to prevent the hazard of
electric shock.
There is a danger of electric shock if the cut off plug is inserted into any 13 amp socket outlet.
Caution:
The dishwasher plug must be accessible even when the appliance is installed as a built-in unit so that
maintence can be done safety.

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.
How to fill the salt
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:
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 re-
mains at a minimum.
To adjust salt consumption, proceed as follows:
It  is  recommended  that adjustments be made  in accordance with the following table:
When the low salt indicator “1 ”  lights, you must fill the salt.
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.
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 the hardness of the
water being used.
