Installation

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.

This appliance is intended to be used in household and

similar applications such as:

- staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working

environments;

- farm houses;

- by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type

environments;

- bed and breakfast type environments.

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. 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.

4. Adjust the height of the rear foot from the front of the

appliance

*

 on the central lower part of the dishwasher,

turning a hexagonal spanner (red color) with an opening of

8 mm in a clockwise direction to increase the height or in an

anticlockwise direction to decrease the height.

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 hoses.

Do not use old hoses.

The water inlet and outlet hoses and the electricity

supply cable may be positioned towards the right or the

left in order to achieve the best possible installation.

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 supplied 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 adjacent

information).

The hose should not be bent or compressed.

Connecting the water outlet hose

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

duct with a minimum diameter of 4 cm.

The outlet hose must be at a height ranging from 40 to

80 cm from the floor / surface where the dishwasher

rests (A).

Before connecting the water outlet hose to the sink

drain, remove the plastic plug (B).

Only available in selected models.

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.

Some models are also equipped with the supplementary

safety device 

New Acqua Stop

*

, which guarantees anti-

flooding protection even in the event of a supply hose

rupture.

WARNING: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE!

Under no circumstance should the water inlet hose be

cut as it contains live electrical parts.

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 chapter entitled

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 re-

placed by the manufacturer or its Technical Assistance

Service in order to prevent all potential hazards. (See As-

sistance)

The Company shall not be held responsible for any

incidents that occur if these regulations are not

observed.

Anti-condensation strip

*

After installing the dishwasher, open the door and stick

the adhesive transparent strip under the wooden shelf in

order to protect it from any condensation which may

form.

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 only then

approximately 1 kg of salt (

see chapter entitled Rinse aid

and refined salt). The water may overflow: this is normal

and is not a cause for concern. Select the water

hardness value (

see chapter entitled Rinse aid and

refined salt). - After the salt has been poured into the

machine, the LOW SALT indicator light

*

 switches off.

 If the salt container is not filled, the water softener

and the heating element may be damaged as a result.

ECODESIGN REGULATION

ECO wash cycle is the standard cycle to which the energy label data refers; this cycle can be used to wash crockery with a normal

soil level and is the most efficient in terms of energy and water consumption for this type of crockery. To reduce consumption even

further, only run the dishwasher when it is full.

Standby consumption: Left-on mode consumption: 3 W – Off mode consumption: 1,3 W

Consumption data table for the main cycles

* 

Cycle data refers to the values recorded in a laboratory, in accordance with European standard EN 50242.

**

 Data is obtained by recording values when the appliance is operational and loaded with user crockery.
