Installation
  WARNING!
Any electrical and/or plumbing work required to
install this appliance should be carried out by a
qualified electrician and/or plumber or compe-
tent person.
Water connection
  WARNING!
The dishwasher must not be connected to open
water appliances or instantaneous water heat-
ers. This dishwasher may be fed with either hot
(max. 60°) or cold water. Nevertheless we ad-
vise you a cold water supply.
 25 
						

							  WARNING!
Only use, for connection to the water mains,
new hose-set; old hose-set must not be reused.
  CAUTION!
If the machine is connected to new pipes or
pipes which have not been used for a long time,
you should run the water for a few minutes be-
fore connecting the inlet hose.
Water inlet hose with safety
valve
Connect the inlet hose to a water tap with an
external thread of 3/4”.
After connecting the double-walled water inlet
hose, the safety valve is next to the tap.
If the water inlet hose leaks, the safety valve
cuts off the water supply.
  WARNING!
The electrical cable for the safety valve is in the
double-walled water inlet hose and is live.
Therefore do not immerse the water inlet hose
or the safety valve in water.
Take care when installing the water inlet hose
. Place the water inlet hose in such a way that
it is always lower than the bottom edge of the
safety valve.
If the water inlet hose or the safety valve is
damaged, remove the mains plug immediately.
  CAUTION!
A water inlet hose with safety valve MUST only
be replaced by your local Service Force Centre.
26
 
 
						

							Drain hose
Connect drain hose to the
sink.Required height: 30 to 100
cm above bottom of the
dishwasher.Ensure that the hoses are
not kinked, crushed or en-
tangled.When connecting the
drain hose to an under
sink trap spigot, the entire
plastic membrane (A)
must be removed. Fail-
ure to remove all the mem-
brane will result in food
particles building up over
time eventually blocking
the dishwasher drain hose
spigot.
If you use a drain hose extension the total
length should not be longer than 4 metres.
Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings
used for connections to the waste outlet must
be no smaller than the diameter of the hose
provided.
Electrical connection
  CAUTION!
Safety standards require the appliance to be
earthed.
Prior to using the appliance for the first time,
ensure that the rated voltage and type of supply
on the rating plate match that of the supply
where the appliance is to be installed.
The fuse rating is also to be found on the rating
plate.Always plug the mains plug into a correctly in-
stalled shockproof socket. Multi-way plugs,
connectors and extension cables must not be
used.
This could constitute a fire hazard through over-
heating.
If necessary, have the domestic wiring system
socket replaced. In case that the electrical ca-
ble has to be replaced, contact your local Serv-
ice Force centre.
The plug must be accessible after the appliance
has been installed.
Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the
cable. Always pull the plug.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for failure
to observe the above safety precautions.

							Fitting under a counter
IMPORTANT!
Carefully follow the instructions on the enclosed
template for building in the dishwasher and fit-
ting the furniture panel.
  WARNING!
The dishwasher must be secured against tilting.
Therefore make sure that the counter it is fixed
under, is suitably secured to a fixed structure
(adjacent kitchen units cabinets, wall).
This dishwasher is designed to be fitted under
a kitchen counter or work surface.
No further openings for the venting of the
dishwasher are required, but only to let the wa-
ter fill and drain hose and power supply cable
pass through.The dishwasher incorporates adjustable feet to
allow the adjustment of the height.
During all operations that involve accessibility
to internal components the dishwasher has to
be unplugged.
Be sure that once the appliance has been in-
stalled, it is easily accessible for the service
engineer in the event that a repair is required.
Levelling
Good levelling is essential for correct closure
and sealing of the door.
When the appliance is correctly levelled, the
door will not catch on either side of the cabinet.
If the door does not close correctly, loosen or
tighten the adjustable feet until the machine is
perfectly level. (See enclosed template).
