Zanussi DCS 14 S Instruction Booklet - Installation

Installation

The dishwasher is intended for installation on a

kitchen sink or worktop. It is important to ensure

the dishwasher is level to avoid any difficulty

opening and closing the door. Its height can be

adjusted with the adjustable feet (8 mm each) in

each corner of the dishwasher.

Water inlet

The dishwasher should be permanently plumbed

into a separate cold water supply. 

The water pressure must be within the limits given

in the technical specifications, as it will not function

correctly if pressure is outside these specifications.

Your local Water Authority will advise you on the

average mains pressure in your area. Where the

water is supplied from a cold water cistern you can

work out the pressure yourself by measuring the

vertical distance (or ‘Head’) between the machine’s

inlet hose and the outlet from the cold water storage

cistern; allowing .86 psi for every 2 feet under normal

conditions.

We would advise you to have a shut-off valve or

stopcock in the water supply pipe close to the dish-

washer and accessible for easy use. This should 

be turned off when the appliance is not in use.

Insert the combination rubber washer/filter and

connect the inlet hose to a tap with a 3/4” pipe

thread. 

The inlet hose (1) must not be joined onto any form

of extension hose. If it is too short, the entire hose

must be replaced with a longer high-pressure hose,

specially designed for the purpose. 

The machine end of this hose can be turned in any

direction. Loosen the retaining nut, turn the hose,

then retighten the nut.
