Water supply pressure Minimum 0,5 bar (0,05 MPa) Maximum 8 bar (0,8 MPa) Capacity Place settings 12 Installation instructions Installation WARNING! Make sure that mains plug is disconnected from the mains socket during installation. Obey the instructions in the enclosed template to:

• Build-in the appliance.

• Install the furniture panel.

• Connect to the water supply and drain. Install the appliance under a counter (kitchen worktop or sink). If a repair is necessary, the appliance must be easily accessible for the engineer. Put the appliance adjacent to a water tap and a drain. For the venting of the dishwasher only water fill, water drain and power supply cable openings are necessary. The dishwasher has adjustable feet to allow the adjustment of the height. Make sure that the water inlet hose, the drain hose and the supply cable are not kinked or squashed, when you insert the machine. Attaching the appliance to the adjacent units Make sure that the counter below which you attach the appliance is a safe structure (ad- jacent kitchen units, cabinets, wall). Adjusting the level of the appliance Make sure that the appliance is level to close and seal the door correctly. If the level of the appliance is correct, the door does not catch on the sides of the cabinet. If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the adjustable feet until the appliance is level.

Technical dataWater connection Water inlet hose Connected the appliance to a hot (max. 60°) or cold water supply. If the hot water comes from alternative sources of energy that are more environmentally friendly (e.g. solar or photovoltaic panels and aeolian), use a hot water supply to decrease energy consumption. Connect the inlet hose to a water tap with an external thread of 3/4”. CAUTION! Do not use connection hoses from an old appliance. The water pressure must be in the limits (refer to 'Technical data'). Make sure that the local water authority gives you the average mains pressure in your area. Make sure that there are no kinks in the water inlet hose and that the water inlet hose is not squashed or entangled. Fit the locknut correctly to prevent water leaks. CAUTION! Do not connect the appliance to new pipes or pipes that are not used for a long time. Let the water run for some minutes, then connect the inlet hose. The water inlet hose is double-walled and has an inner mains cable and a safety valve. The water inlet hose is under pressure only while the water is running. If there is a leak in the water inlet hose, , the safety valve interrupts the running water. Be careful when you connect the water inlet hose:

• Do not put the water inlet hose or the safety valve in water.

• If the water inlet hose or the safety valve is damaged, immediately disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.

• Only let the Service Force Centre replace the water inlet hose with safety valve. WARNING! Dangerous voltage Water drain hose

1. Connect the water drain hose to the sink spigot and attach it under the work surface.

This prevents that the waste water from the sink goes back into the appliance. Water connection

512. Connect the water drain hose to a stand pipe with vent-hole (minimum internal di-

ameter 4 cm). The waste connection must be at a maximum height of 60 cm from the bottom of the dish- washer. Make sure that the drain hose is not bent or squashed to prevent that the water drains does not drain correctly. Remove the sink plug when the appliance drains the water to prevent that the water goes back into the appliance. The total length of the drain hose, extension in- cluded, must not be longer than 4 m. The internal diameter must not be smaller than the diameter of the hose If you connect the water drain hose to a trap spi- got under the sink, remove the plastic membrane (A). If you do not remove the membrane, remain- ing food can cause a blockage in the drain hose spigot The appliance has a security feature to prevent that dirty water goes back into the appliance. If, the spigot of the sink has a 'non-return valve', this valve can cause the appliance to drain incorrectly. Remove the non-return valve. CAUTION! Make sure that the water couplings are tight to prevent water leakage. Electrical connection WARNING! The manufacturer is not responsible if you do not follow these safety precautions. Ground the appliance according to safety precautions. Make sure that the rated voltage and type of power on the rating plate agree with the voltage and the power of the local power supply. Always use a correctly installed shockproof socket. Do not use multi-way plugs, connectors and extension cables. There is a risk of fire. Do not replace the mains cable yourself. Contact the Service Force Centre. Make sure that the mains plug is accessible after installation. Do not pull the mains cable to disconnect the appliance. Always pull the mains plug.
