Danby DDW396W Dishwasher User Manual


 
For best operating results, incoming water pressure
should be between 15 and 120 pounds per
square inch (psi). Incoming water supply for the
dishwasher is controlled by a "pressure switch".
If household water pressure is low, the fill time of the
dishwasher will be longer.
FOR BEST CLEANING RESULTS:
Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot
water and detergent against the soiled surface of the
dishes. Water (under pressure) is pumped through a
spray arm causing it to rotate, cascading jets of water
over the dishes. The water is then drained through a
(mesh) tub filter, (removing solid food particles) and
recirculated back through the spray arm.
The soiled water is pumped out and replaced with
fresh water at the end of each cycle.
NOTE: The tub filter must be cleaned after each use.
Household hot water system should be set to operate
at a minimum of 120°F (49°C).
Your dishwasher comes equipped with a "quick
connect" (fill & drain) hose assembly and faucet
adapter.
• Install faucet adapter on faucet.
•Slowly open the faucet and check for leaks.
•Close faucet and repair any leaks using teflon tape.
Connect the drain hose (small connection) to the
drain port at the back of the dishwasher cabinet.
Connect the hot water inlet hose (large connection)
to the water inlet valve at the back of the
dishwasher cabinet. (tighten firmly, but do not over-
tighten to avoid damage to threads)
Attach the hose assembly (quick-connect) to the
faucet adapter, by gently pulling down the (outer)
locking collar of the quick connect, while pushing
the attachment upward onto the faucet adapter.
When the quick-connect snaps onto the faucet
adapter, release the locking collar. Check for a
positive fit.
Slowly open the water supply and check for leaks at
all hose connections.
• If leaks are located, immediately close the water
supply and repair faulty connection(s).
If your existing faucet adapter is not compatible with
the "quick connect" water inlet hose assembly
supplied;
Install the faucet adapter (included with
dishwasher) onto your faucet.
If your faucet is inclusive of a "male" type
(threaded) connection, insert the standard (2mm)
rubber washer inside the faucet adapter.
• If your faucet is inclusive of a "female" type
(threaded) connection, insert both rubber washers
(2mm & 5mm) inside the faucet adapter.
The minimum height clearance required to install
this dishwasher on a counter with overhead
(suspended) cupboards is 17-1/2" (44.4cm)
Make sure the electrical outlet is within the
required distance of the power cord. (length of
power cord is 6 feet /182.8 cm).
Make sure the water supply (connection) is within
distance of the (water inlet & drain) hose assembly
(length of the hose assembly is 5 feet / 152.4cm).
The dishwasher must be installed on a "solid" level
surface.
To level the dishwasher, adjust the levelling screws
(feet) under the dishwasher.
