[. . . ] IN MODELS EQUIPPED WITH THE AQUSTOP DEVICE, THERE IS A SOLENOID VALVE INSIDE THE WATER INTAKE HOSE. DO NOT CUT THE HOSE AND DO NOT ALLOW THE SOLENOID VALVE TO DROP INTO WATER. IN THE EVENT OF DAMAGE TO THE WATER INTAKE HOSE, DISCONNECT THE APPLIANCE FROM THE ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY AND FROM THE WATER SUPPLY. IMMEDIATELY AFTER INSTALLING THE DISHWASHER, PERFORM A QUICK TEST OF THE APPLIANCE FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW. IF THE DISHWASHER FAILS TO OPERATE CORRECTLY, DISCONNECT IT FROM THE ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY AND CALL THE NEAREST TECHNICAL SERVICE CENTRE. THE DISHWASHER MEETS ALL THE REQUIREMENTS SET OUT BY THE REGULATIONS IN FORCE CONCERNING SAFETY AND ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT. ANY TECHNICAL CHECKS SHOULD BE CONDUCTED EXCLUSIVELY BY A TRAINED AND AUTHORISED TECHNICIAN: REPAIRS CARRIED OUT BY UNAUTHORISED PERSONS WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY, AS WELL AS POSING A POTENTIAL HAZARD TO THE USER. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons or property resulting from failure to observe the above precautions, from tampering with even a single component of the appliance, or from the use of non original spare parts. Installation instructions 2. Installation and hook-up Remove the polystyrene basket retainers. Position the appliance in the desired place of installation. The back or sides of the dishwasher may be placed up against walls or other furniture units. If the dishwasher is installed near a heat source, fit the special insulating panel to prevent overheating and malfunction of the appliance. To ensure stability, install integrated or built-under dishwashers only under continuous worktops, and screw them to the adjacent units. To facilitate the installation procedure, the intake and drain hoses can be positioned in any direction; make sure that the hoses are not kinked, crushed or pulled too tightly. Make sure to tighten the locking ring-nut once the pipes have been placed in the direction required. A hole at least 8 cm in diameter is required to allow the power supply cable and pipes to pass. Level the appliance on the floor using its adjustable feet. This operation is essential for ensuring correct operation of the dishwasher. Building-in a dishwasher underneath a ceramic hob is absolutely forbidden. A dishwasher can be built-in underneath a conventional hob provided there is no break in the kitchen worktop, and the dishwasher and hob are installed and secured correctly, so that no hazards are generated. For free-standing models only - Installing a hob on top of a free-standing dishwasher is absolutely forbidden. - If the appliance is not built-in and is therefore accessible on one side, the door hinge area must be covered for safety reasons (injury hazard). The covering fixtures are available as an accessory from specialist dealers or the After-Sales Service. - To build in the dishwasher, the special kit must be purchased from authorised dealers or the After-Sales Service. [. . . ] Clean the door gaskets with a damp sponge. Periodically (once or twice a year) it is advisable to clean the tank and gaskets, using a soft cloth and water to remove any deposits. CLEANING THE WATER INTAKE FILTER The water intake filter A located at the outlet of the water supply tap needs to be cleaned periodically. After having closed the water supply tap, unscrew the end of the water intake hose, remove the filter A and clean it delicately under running water. [. . . ]
