Securing the dishwasher
The dishwasher must be secured to the worktop, this can be done in
one of two ways:-
o Standard worktop- Secure the dishwasher to the
underside of the worktop by using two wood screws.
o You should screw through the holes in the brackets at the
top of the dishwasher cabinet.
o These screws should be fully tightened.
o Marble/granite worktop- The material of the worktop
will mean that it is impossible to put a screw through the
underneath of the worktop.
o On either side of the front edge of the dishwasher cabinet,
there is a rubber stopper. You should remove the rubber
stoppers, to reveal a pre-drilled hole on either side of the
dishwasher.
o Secure the dishwasher to the cupboard either side of it, by
screwing a wood screw through the pre-drilled holes into
the cupboards. These screws should be fully tightened.
o The rubber stoppers should then be refitted into their
original position.
Before first use
You should check the following before using the appliance for the first
time:-
o That the dishwasher is level and fixed in position.
o That the water tap is fully open.
o That there are no leaks at either end of the drain or inlet hoses.
o That the inlet and outlet hose are fully tightened.
o That the inlet and outlet hoses are not kinked.
o That the power is switched on.
o That the water softener has been filled with 1 litre of water and
salt.
o That the rinse aid dispenser has been filled.
