Avoiding General Hazards
Do not use the dishwasher until it is completely
installed. When opening the door on an uninstalled
dishwasher, carefully open the door while
supporting the rear of the unit. Failure to follow this
warning can cause the dishwasher to tip over and
result in serious injury.
Before installing the "L"-shaped supplied countertop
mounting brackets (select models), decide which
method will be used to secure the dishwasher into
its opening. Once these mounting brackets are
installed on the dishwasher, removing them is
difficult and will damage the mounting brackets and
the dishwasher.
In some conditions, hydrogen gas can form in a hot
water system that has not been used for weeks.
Hydrogen gas is explosive.
Before filling a dishwasher from a system that has
been off for weeks, run the water from a nearby
faucet in a well ventilated area until there is no
sound or evidence of gas.
Temperatures required for soldering and sweating
will damage the dishwasher's base and water inlet
valve. If plumbing lines are to be soldered or
sweated, keep the heat source at least 6" (152.4
mm) away from the dishwasher's base and water
inlet valve.
Removing any cover or pulling the dishwasher from
the cabinet can expose hot water connections,
electrical power and sharp edges or points. Handle
with care.
Avoiding Electrical Shock/Fire Hazards
Do not allow the electrical and water supply lines to
touch. Separate channels are provided under the
dishwasher.
Do not work on an energized circuit. Doing so could
result in serious injury or death. Only qualified
electricians should perform electrical work. Do not
attempt any work on the dishwasher electric supply
circuit until you are certain the circuit is de-
energized.

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 -
i0 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.
