PREPARING WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
•
Make sure the house water supply is turned off before connecting the
dishwasher water lines.
•
Connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply with a temperature range between
120 °F (49 °C) and 149 °F (65
°C). This temperature range
provides the best washing results
and shortest cycle time. To
prevent damage to dishes, the
temperature should not exceed
149 °F (65 °C).
•
When connecting the dishwasher
water line, sealing tape or
compound should be used on pipe
threads to avoid leaks. Tape or
compound should not be used on
compression ttings.
•
The water supply tube must be
located in the left side channel.
PREPARING CABINET OPENING
•
This dishwasher is designed to t a standard dishwasher opening. An
opening may be needed on both sides to route plumbing and electrical
connections.
•
Select a location as close to the sink as possible for easy connections to water and
drain lines.
•
To ensure proper drainage, install the
dishwasher no more than 12 ft. from
the sink.
•
If installing the dishwasher in a corner,
leave a minimum of 2" between the
dishwasher and the adjacent wall.
•
To allow for proper clearance of
plumbing and electrical, use the
template included with the literature
to determine the clearance on the side
of the cabinet where the cabinet meets
the back wall. Using a 2 1/2" diameter
hole saw, drill a hole in the target area
as shown on the template.
▲
! WARNING
Don't use existing holes unless they are in the target area. Otherwise, the water supply
and drain hose may be damaged by being crushed or kinked.
▲
! CAUTION
Failure to properly locate the hole for the water and drain lines may prevent the
dishwasher from installing ush with the cabinets and could result in kinked or
damaged lines. Installation damage is not covered by the warranty, and leaks caused by
improper installation may result in property damage.
