If the door doesnot close correctly, loosen or tighten the adjustable feet until the machine is perfectly level.Water connectionWater supply connectionsThis appliance can be connected to either a hot (max. 60°) or cold water supply.With a hot water supply you can have a significant reduction of energy consumption. Thishowever, depends on how the hot water is produced. (We suggest alternative sources ofenergy that are more environmentally friendly as e.g. solar or photovoltaic panels andaeolian).For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the machine's supply hose isdesigned to screw onto a 3/4" thread spout or to a purpose made quick-coupling tap suchas the Press-block.The water pressure must be within the limits given in the "Technical specifications". Yourlocal Water Authority will advise you on the average mains pressure in your area.The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled when it is being connected.The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be turned either to the left or theright to suit the installation by means of the locknut.The locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks.(Attention! NOT all models of dishwashers have fill and drain hoses provided with locknut.In this case, this kind of facility is not possible). If the machine is connected to new pipesWater connection 27
