Avoid Scald Hazard

Do not perform any work on a charged hot water line. Serious injury

could result. Only qualified plumbers should perform plumbing work. Do not attempt any work on the dishwasher hot water supply plumb=

ing until you are certain the hot water supply is shut off.

Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will damage the dishwasher. If plumbing lines are to be soldered or sweated, keep the heat source at least 6 inches (152.4 mm) away from the dishwasher.

Hot Water Supply

The hot water heater should be set to deliver approximately 120° F (49° C)

water to the dishwasher. Water that is too hot can cause some detergents

to lose effectiveness. Lower water temperatures will increase run times.

The hot water supply pressure must be between 15 - 145 psi (1 - 10 bar).

IMPORTANT NOTES:

• If using a solder joint instead of a compression fitting, be sure to make all solder connections before connecting the water supply line to the

dishwasher.

• Make sure there are no sharp bends or kinks in the water line that might restrict water flow.

• Always use the appropriate seal when making plumbing connections.

• Before connecting the water supply line to the dishwasher, flush the incoming water line for approximately 5 minutes to clear any foreign

material.

• Turn on the water supply and check for leaks after connections are made.

Connect the dishwasher water supply line to the water shut off valve.

You will need to use an approved dishwasher water supply line with the correct fittings for this connection. Always use the appropriate seal when making plumbing connections.

After all connections are made, turn on the hot water and check for

leaks.

IMPORTANT NOTES about your drain connection:

• If local ordinance require an air gap, install it according to the manu-

facturer's instructions.

• If the dishwasher drain hose is to be connected to a disposer dishwasher drain connection, remove the plug from the disposer's

dishwasher drain connection.

• The dishwasher drain hose must have one place along its length that is securely attached 20" (508ram) above the cabinet floor.

• The drain hose length can be extended if necessary. The maximum length of the drain hose, including the hose leading to the air gap, is

150" (3800mm).
