The dishwasher must always be connected to the water system with new hoses; old or used hoses must never be reused. CONNECTING TO THE WATER SUPPLY Connect the intake hose to a cold water supply with ¾" gas thread, inserting the filter A supplied with the dishwasher. Take care to screw the hose firmly into place with your hands and then complete by tightening about ¼ of a turn with pliers. In dishwashers equipped with the ACQUASTOP device, the filters is already fitted inside the threaded ring. The dishwasher can also be connected to a hot water supply not exceeding 60° . Supplying the appliance with hot water cuts down the C washing time by approximately 20 minutes, but slightly reduces its effectiveness. [. . . ] THE PLUG MUST BE ACCESSIBLE AFTER INSTALLATION.
