Installation; Positioning And Levelling; Connecting The Water And Electricity Supplies - SCHOLTES LVL 12-67 Manual De Instrucciones

Installation

 Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for
EN
future reference. If the appliance is sold, given
away or moved, please ensure the manual is kept
with the machine, so that the new owner may
benefit from the advice contained within it.
 Please read this instruction manual carefully: it
contains important information regarding the safe
installation, use and maintenance of the appliance.
 If the appliance must be moved at any time,
keep it in an upright position; if absolutely
necessary, it may be tilted onto its back.

Positioning and levelling

1. Remove the appliance from all packaging and
check that it has not been damaged during
transportation.
If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and
do not proceed any further with the installation
process.
2. Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its
sides or back panel are in contact with the
adjacent cabinets or even with the wall. This
appliance can also be recessed under a single
worktop* ( see the Assembly instruction sheet ).
3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy
floor. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the
appliance may be adjusted until it reaches a
horizontal position (the angle of inclination must not
exceed 2 degrees). If the appliance is levelled
correctly, it will be more stable and much less
likely to move or cause vibrations and noise while it
is operating.
4. Adjust the height of the rear feet from the front
of the appliance*: use a screwdriver to tighten or
loosen the screws on the lower part of the
dishwasher.
Connecting the water and electricity
supplies
 Connection to the water and electricity supplies
should only be performed by a qualified
technician.
 The dishwasher should not stand on top of the
water hoses or the electricity supply cable.
The water inlet (A) and outlet (B) hoses and the
electricity supply cable may be positioned
towards the right or the left in order to achieve the
best possible installation ( see figure ).

Connecting the water inlet hose
• To a suitable cold water connection point:
before attaching the hose, run the water until it
is perfectly clear so that any impurities that
may be present in the water do not clog the
appliance; after performing this operation,
screw the inlet hose tightly onto a tap with a ¾
gas threaded connection.
• To a suitable hot water connection point: your
dishwasher may be provided with hot water
from the mains supply (if you have a central
heating system with radiators) provided that it
does not exceed a temperature of 60°C.
Screw the hose to the tap as described for
connection to a cold water supply.
 If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a
specialist store or an authorised technician ( see
Assistance ).
 The water pressure must be within the values
indicated in the Technical data table ( see below ).
 The hose should not be bent or compressed.
Anti-flooding protection
To ensure floods do not occur, the dishwasher:
- is provided with a special system which blocks
the water supply in the event of anomalies or
leaks from inside the appliance.
- is provided with a Water Stop * safety device, in
other words it has a water inlet hose that consists
of a transparent hose on the outside and a red
hose on the inside: both the hoses can withstand
extremely high pressure. If the internal hose
breaks, the external hose becomes a bright red
colour and carries the water instead, thus avoiding
any leakage.
 It is very important to check the external hose
regularly: if it is a bright red colour, it must be
replaced by an authorised technician as soon as
possible ( see Assistance ).
* Only available in selected models.
