EmpJacement d'instaHation
Ne pas placer canalisation d'evacuation, canalisation d'eau
ou cablage electrique a un endroit ou cela susciterait
interference ou contact avec les pieds ou le moteur du
lave-vaisselle.
A I'emplacement d'installation du laveovaisselle0 on doit
pouvoir etablir le degagement approprie entre le moteur et
le plancher. Le moteur ne doit pas toucher le plancher.
Ne pas installer le lave-vaisselle par_dessus un tapis.
Proteger du gel le lave°vaisselle et lea canalisations d'eau
qui I%limentent; la garantie de I'appareil ne couvre pas les
dommages imputables au gel.
Un ensemble "panneau lateral" est disponible chez les
revendeurs pour I'installation du laveovaisselle
I'extremite d'une rangee de placards.
Un accessoire pare-vapeur (produit n° 4396277} est
disponible chez les revendeurs pour I'installation de
I'appareil sous le plan de travail. Cependant I'utilisation de
cet accessoire n'est pas indispensable.
Inspecter I'emplacement d'installation du laveovaisselle; il
doit comporter les caracteristiques suivantes :
facilite d'acces aux canalisations d'eau et d'egout eta la
source d%lectricite.
acces facile pour chargement et dechargement de la
vaisselle. Dans le cas de I'installation dans un angle, on
doit pouvoir etablir un degagement de 5,1 cm (2"} ou plus
entre le c6te de la porte du lave-vaisselle et le tour ou le
placard.

permettant un fonctionnement correct.
fagade des placards perpendiculaire au plancher.
plancher horizontal et plat (s'il y a un ecart de niveau
entre I'avant et I'arriere sur le plancher de I'emplacement
d'installation, il pourrait 6tre necessaire d'utiliser des
cales pour etablir I'aplomb de I'appareil}.
NOTE : Pour eviter tout deplacement des cabs durant le
fonctionnement de I'appareil, il eat necessaire de fixer lea
cabs au plancher.
Si le lave-vaisselle ne doit pas _tre utilise pendant une
periode prolongee ou s'il est laisse a un endroit qui
pourrait 6tre expose au gel, veiller a faire executer lea
operations de pre-hivernage par un technicien competent.
Veiller ace que les canalisations d'eau et d'evacuation et
les cables electriques soient dans la zone marquee en gris
dana la section "Dimensions de I'emplacement
d'installation'[
Conseil utile : Si le plancher de I'espace d'installation
n'est pas parfaitement horizontal et plat (exemple :
garnissage de carrelage sur une pattie seulement}, on
devra accorder une attention particuliere aux details
Iors du releve des dimensions, pour pouvoir etablir
I'aplomb correct du laveovaisselle.
