Page 14
6.5 PREPARING THE WATER CONNECTION (A)
Install an easily accessible shut-off valve (not supplied) in the water supply line. All solder
connections must be made before the water line is connected to the dishwasher’s water
inlet valve. Water can also be supplied to the dishwasher by using a exible braided hose
line.

Water Connection
USA
11
Page 15
NOTICE :
• Either one of the above methods must be used or the dishwasher will not operate
properly.
• A hose that attaches to a sink spray can burst if it is installed on the same water line as
the dishwasher. If your sink has one, it is recommended that the hose be disconnected
and the hole plugged.
• The total length of the drain hose is 763/4” (1950mm). If a hose extension is required, a
drainage hose of equal quality must be used.
• The maximum length must not exceed 157 ½” (4000mm). Otherwise, the cleaning
process is negatively inuenced.
6.6.1 UNDER THE SINK DRAIN
Install a Y-branch tail pipe. (Figure A)
NOTICE :
You must add a loop at least 28” (710mm) above the oor of
the cabinet and above the drain connection in the drain hose
to prevent waste water from not draining properly, and causing
either poor washing results or a bad odor.
6.6.2 INSTALLING AN AIR GAP
If the local ordinance requires an air gap (Figure B).
NOTICE :
Check with local ordinance for type of air gap required.
6.6.3 DISPOSAL
Remove the drain connection plug before attaching the drain
hose from the dishwasher.
Every disposal has a hook up for a dishwasher; consult your
disposer manual for correct connection. (Figure C)
USA
12
Page 16
6.7 STEAM PROTECTION FOIL
Steam will form inside the dishwasher during operation. At the end of the cycle, when the
dishwasher door is opened, it is required to use a steam protection foil to prevent any
steam from collecting on the underside of the counter top.
6.6.2 FITTING THE PROTECTION FOIL
Before applying the steam protection foil to the
underside of the countertop, clean the area with
a damp cloth (as shown in Figure A). Once the
area dries, apply the steam protection foil.
The steam protection
foil will be applied at the
location where the hot
steam escapes when you
rst open the door (as
shown in Figure B).
CAUTION
Steam protection foil must be applied
where the steam escapes when door is
rst opened. Failure to install the steam
protection foil during installation can
lead to damage to the cabinets and
countertop.

Page 18
7.1.2 WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
Water supply may be connected to the
dishwasher in one of two ways:
• With metal braided hose.
• With copper tubing.
CAUTION
• Hot water supply line: Use minimum 3/8”
O.D. copper tubing or metal braided
dishwasher supply line.
• Temperatures required for soldering and
sweating will damage the dishwasher’s
water inlet valve so if any such operation
is needed, keep the heat source
min. 77/8” (200mm) away from the
dishwasher’s water inlet valve.
• There should not be any sharp bends in
the water line that may restrict the water
ow.
• Teon tape or pipe tread compound
must be used for sealing the connection.
Before connecting the copper water
supply line to the dishwasher, ush it with
hot water to clear any foreign material.
NOTICE :
After connections are made turn on the
water supply to check for leaks.
7.1.3 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
WARNING

and rounded and it must be large enough
for the attachment plug to pass through.
The longest dimension of the opening
shall not be more than 1,5” (38 mm).If the
partition is metal, it needs to be covered
with an edge protector.
• Care must be taken when the appliance
is installed or removed, to reduce the
likelihood of damage to the power-supply
cord.
7.1.4 GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the
event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electric
shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is installed
and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances. This appliance
must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system, or an equipmentgrounding conductor must be run with the
circuit conductors and connected to the
equipment-grounding terminal or lead on
the appliance.
WARNING
Improper connection of the equipmentgrounding conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualied
electrician or service representative if
you are in doubt whether the appliance is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the appliance, if it will not t
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualied electrician.
