Connecting the drainage
system
- The appliance drainage system is
fitted with a non-return valve, which
prevents dirty water from flowing
back into the dishwasher via the
drain hose.
- The dishwasher drain hose should be
connected to a separate on-site drain
for the dishwasher only. If no
separate drain is available, we
recommend connecting it to a dual-
chamber siphon.
- The dishwasher is supplied with
approx. 1.5m of flexible drain hose
with an internal diameter of 22mm.
Hose clips are supplied with the
dishwasher.
- The drain hose must not be
shortened! The hose can be
extended using a connection piece to
attach a further length of hose. The
drainage length must not be longer
than 4m and the delivery head no
higher than 1m.
- The drainage system must be able to
accommodate a minimum drainage
flow of 16l/min.
 Make sure that there are no kinks
in the hose, and that it is not
squashed or stretched.
Hose installation when water
drainage is low
If the on-site water drainage connection
is situated lower than the guide path for
the lower basket rollers in the door, the
water drain hose must be installed at
that level with a bend in it. Otherwise,
water may flow out of the wash cabinet
during a programme.
Tall unit installation
APFD101 and APFD102 are available
as optional accessories for use when
installing the dishwasher in a tall unit.
