Ensure that the domestic wiring is properly earthed.
The mains electricity supply must conform to the details shown on the dishwasher nameplate.
Do not connect the dishwasher to the electricity supply via an extension cable.
Built-under and built-in appliances should always be installed under a continuous work surface which
is attached to the adjacent cupboards, in order to ensure that the appliance is entirely stable.
After the appliance has been installed,the mains plug should still be easily accessible.
The plastic housing on the water inlet contains an electrically operated valve.The connecting wires
are inside the inlet hose.Do not cut through this hose and do not immerse the plastic housing in water.
During installation, the power supply cord must not be excessively or dangerously bent or flattened.
During installation

or get stuck in other positions. Therefore: Remove the mains
plug, cut the mains wire and set aside. Damage the door lock so
that the door can no longer be closed.

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.
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.
fig.A
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
en
Warning
The appliance is to be connected to the
water mains using new hose-sets and
that old hose-sets should not be reused.
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,
turn off the power supply and
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 con-
tains 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
approved
service center.

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.
fig.C
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.
MAX 100 cm
MIN 40 cm
en
Attention:
The connecting piece for syphon trap (U-bend) must be solidly
fastened to the wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and
allowing water to spill outside the drain.
Caution:
The dishwasher plug must be accessible even when the appli-
ance is installed as a built-in unit so that maintenance can be
done safely.

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.
According to the “Water Hardness Tabel”, you can calcu-
late the time of use, then load 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.
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:

en
Important
To prevent the formation of rust, load the salt just before beginning a
wash cycle.
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 remains at a minimum.
To adjust salt consumption, proceed as follows:
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.
It is recommended that adjustments be made in accordance with the following table:
