Positioning and installation
Positioning
In its standard version the machine is intended for instal-
lation on a kitchen sink or worktop. To function properly
the machine must be fully level. Its height can be adjusted
with the adjustable feet (8 mm each).
Water supply
The temperature of the water supply should not exceed
65!C and the pressure should be between 50-1000 kPa
(0.5-10 kp/cm2). It is important to have a tap or stopcock,
positioned close to the machine and with easy access.
Special mixer taps with dishwasher connections are avai-
lable, as well as adaptors for older mixer taps.
Insert the combination rubber washer/filter and connect the
inlet hose to a tap with a 3/4" pipe thread. If necessary,
use the restrictor (1/2") supplied.
The inlet hose (1) must not be joined onto any form of
extension hose. If it is too short, the entire hose must be
replaced with a longer high-pressure hose, specially
designed for the purpose. The machine end of this hose
can be turned in any direction. Loosen the retaining nut,
turn the hose, then retighten the nut.
Discharge connection
Connect the discharge hose to the pipe stub at the rear
of the dishwasher, using the hose clip supplied. It is
important to push the discharge hose (2) onto the pipe2
stub as far as it will go and tighten the hose clip (3) as1
hard as possible. Place the other end of the discharge
hose over the sink as illustrated.3
The discharge hose must not at any point rise higher than
the top of the dishwasher. If it runs higher, operation of
the dishwasher might be impaired. It is also important to
ensure that the inside diameter of the hose is not less
than 13 mm at any point. If the discharge hose is too long
it can easily be cut to the right length.
- Cut the hose to a suitable length, using a sharp knife.
- Fit the elbow supplied onto the end of the hose.
Electrical connection
The dishwasher must be connected to an earthed wall
socket which must be easily accessible and protected by
a 10 Amp fuse. Permanent electrical installation must be
carried out by an authorised electrician. Before any work
is carried out on the machine it must be isolated from the
electric mains supply, for example by removing the plug
from the wall socket.
