5.2.1 Connecting to the water supply
Preventing the risk of clogging or damage:
If the water pipe is new or has not been used for a long
time, before connecting to the water supply check that
the water is clear and free of impurities, to prevent
damage to the appliance. The dishwasher must always
be connected to the water system with new hoses; old or
used hoses must never be reused.
5.2.1.1 Connecting to the water tap
Connect the inlet hose to a threaded ¾" gas cold water
tap, fitting the supplied filter (ref. A fig. 5-06).

The dishwasher can be filled with water at a temperature
of less than 60°C (140°F). If the appliance is filled with
hot water, washing times will be reduced by about 20
minutes, but efficiency will be slightly impaired. Make the
connection to the domestic hot water tap using the same
methods described for connecting the appliance to the
cold water tap.
Recommended temperature: 49°C (120°F), max. 60°C
(140°F).
Recommended water pressure: 0.5 - 9 bar (7-130
PSI).
If the pressure is too high, fit a pressure reducer.
A rubber hose connected to a sink spray may burst if
installed on the same pipes feeding the dishwasher.
If your sink is fitted with this accessory, remove the
hose and plug the hole.
Fig. 5-06
Do not cut the inlet hose (see fig. 5-07).
If the hose is cut, the dishwasher will not work, water will
leak and you may be injured. If the hose is too long, wind
it up tidily and place it behind the appliance.
The cable harness and electrical components must not
come into contact with the hydraulic system and the
water inlet and drain hoses.
Fig. 5-07
When connecting the dishwasher drain hose to the sink
make sure that the hose is not bent (ref. A fig. 5-08) in order
to prevent cracks or breakages that could damage it.

5.2.1.2 Connecting the drain hose
Connecting to a drain
Insert the relative hose into a drain with a minimum
diameter of 
4 cm (1-37/64") (ref. A fig. 5-09); alternatively,
place the hose on the sink (ref. B fig. 5-09) using the
supplied hose support (see fig. 5-10), but taking care to
avoid obstructions or excessive curving. Make sure the
hose cannot fall out. For this purpose, the hose support is
fitted with a hole (ref. A fig. 5-10) which can be used to fix
it to the wall or the tap with a piece of string. The free end
must lie at a height ranging from of 
30 to 100 cm (from of
1-7/32" to 3-59/64") (see fig. 5-09) and must never be
immerged in water. If horizontal extension hoses with a
maximum length of 3m are used, position the drain hose
at a maximum height of 
85 cm (3-11/32") above the floor.
