Make sure that mains plug is disconnected from the mains socket during installation. Put the appliance adjacent to a water tap and a water drain. Remove the appliance worktop to install it under a sink unit or a kitchen worktop. Make sure that the dimensions of the recess agree with the given dimensions. Do these steps to remove the appliance worktop: 1. Remove the rear screws (1). electrolux 17 2. Pull the worktop from the behind the appliance (2). 3. Lift the worktop and move it from the front slots (3). 4. Use the adjustable feet to adjust the level of the appliance. 5. Install the appliance under the kitchen worktop. Make sure that there are no kinks in the water hoses and that the water hoses are not squashed. If a repair is necessary, the appliance must be easily accessible for the engineer. Install the appliance worktop to the appliance if you want to use the dishwasher as a freestanding appliance. The plinth on freestanding appliance is not adjustable. 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. Water 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 18 electrolux 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. 2. Connect the water drain hose to a stand pipe with vent-hole (minimum internal diameter 4 cm). If you connect the water drain hose to a trap spigot under the sink, remove the plastic membrane (A). If you do not remove the membrane, remaining food can cause a blockage in the drain hose spigot max 400 cm max 85 cm min 40 cm 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. A drain hose extension must not be longer than 2 m. The internal diameter must not be smaller than the diameter of the hose. 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.
