 Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for

future reference. If the appliance is sold, given away or

moved, please ensure the manual is kept with the

machine, so that the new owner may benefit from the

advice contained within it.

 Please read this instruction manual carefully: it

contains important information regarding the safe

installation, use and maintenance of the appliance.

 If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it

in an upright position; if absolutely necessary, it may be

tilted onto its back.

Positioning and levelling

1. Remove the appliance from all packaging and check

that it has not been damaged during transportation.

If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not

proceed any further with the installation process.

2. Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its sides or

back panel are in contact with the adjacent cabinets or

even with the wall. This appliance can also be recessed

under a single worktop (

see the Assembly instruction

sheet*).

3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. If

the floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be

adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position (the angle of

inclination must not exceed 2 degrees). If the appliance is

levelled correctly, it will be more stable and much less

likely to move or cause vibrations and noise while it is

operating.

Connecting the water and electricity

supplies

 Connection to the water and electricity supplies

should only be performed by a qualified technician.

 The dishwasher should not stand on top of the water

hoses or the electricity supply cable.

The appliance must be connected to the water

supply network using new piping.

- Do not use old piping.

The water inlet (A) and outlet (B) hoses and the

electricity supply cable may be positioned towards the

right or the left in order to achieve the best possible

installation (

see figure).

Connecting the water inlet hose

•

To a suitable cold water connection point: before

attaching the hose, run the water until it is perfectly

clear so that any impurities that may be present in the

water do not clog the appliance; after performing this

operation, screw the inlet hose tightly onto a tap with

a ¾ gas threaded connection.

•

To a suitable hot water connection point: your

dishwasher may be provided with hot water from the

mains supply (if you have a central heating system

with radiators) provided that it does not exceed a

temperature of 60°C.

Screw the hose to the tap as described for

connection to a cold water supply.

 If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a

specialist store or an authorised technician (

see

Assistance).

 The water pressure must be within the values

indicated in the Technical data table (

see below).

 The hose should not be bent or compressed.

Anti-flooding  protection

To ensure floods do not occur, the dishwasher:

- is provided with a special system which blocks the

water supply in the event of anomalies or leaks from

inside the appliance.

- is provided with a 

Water Stop* safety device, in other

words it has a water inlet hose that consists of a

transparent hose on the outside and a red hose on the

inside: both the hoses can withstand extremely high

pressure. If the internal hose breaks, the external hose

becomes a bright red colour and carries the water

instead, thus avoiding any leakage.

 It is very important to check the external hose

regularly: if it is a bright red colour, it must be replaced

by an authorised technician as soon as possible (

see

Assistance).

WARNING: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE!

Under no circumstance should the water inlet hose be

cut as it contains live electrical parts.

* Only available in selected models.

Connecting the water outlet hose

Connect the outlet hose (without bending it) to a drain

duct with a minimum diameter of 4 cm. Alternatively, rest

it over a sink or tub; the free end of the hose should not

remain immersed in water.

The special plastic elbow*

makes it easier to find the

best layout: fix the elbow to

the wall securely in order to

prevent the outlet hose from

moving and spilling the dirty

water.

The part of the hose marked

with the letter A should be

between 40 and 100 cm

above the ground (

see

figure).

 We advise against the use of hose extensions.

Electrical  connection

Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket, make

sure that:

•

the socket is earthed and complies with current

regulations;

•

the socket can withstand the maximum load of the

appliance, which is indicated on the data plate

located on the inside of the door (

see Description of

the appliance);

•

the power supply voltage falls within the values

indicated on the data plate on the inside of the door;

•

the socket is compatible with the plug of the

appliance. If this is not the case, ask an authorised

technician to replace the plug (

see Assistance); do

not use extension cables or multiple sockets.

 Once the appliance has been installed, the power

supply cable and the electrical socket should be easily

accessible.

 The cable should not be bent or compressed.

If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be

replaced by the manufacturer or its Technical Assistance

Service in order to prevent all potential hazards. (See

Assistance)

 The Company shall not be held responsible for any

incidents that occur if these regulations are not

observed.

Advice regarding the first wash cycle

After the appliance has been installed, immediately

before running the first wash cycle, completely fill the

salt dispenser with water and add approximately 2 kg of

salt (

see Rinse aid and refined salt). The water may

overflow: this is normal and is not a cause for concern.

It is also normal that the LOW SALT* indicator light

continues to flash for a few cycles after the salt has been

loaded.

* Only available in selected models.
