- 6 -
The tub extends 510mm out of the cabinet by travelling along two rigidly attached
slides on either side of the tub.
3.3.2 Drawer Fronts
Prefinished drawer fronts are formed from a prepainted blank of steel. The drawer
fronts are attached to the tub by means of formed hooks and two pins which are
inserted through either side of the tub.
On the integrated model, the front panel supplied on each drawer is the mounting panel
for the joinery finished drawer front. The joinery finished drawer front is supplied by
the customer.
3.4 Filling
3.4.1 Cold Inlet
The tub of the dishwasher fills by a cold water inlet hose only. From the connection to
the cold water pipe in the kitchen, the inlet hose enters the cabinet of the dishwasher at
the base, onto a dual water valve. Each tub is supplied water independently via one of
the dual valve coils and a fill hose that runs through customised link assemblies at the
back of the tub and travels along the base of the tub under the wiring cover to the
front. At the front of the tub, the fill hose connects to the detergent dispenser which
allows water to enter the tub, firstly through the pre rinse section of the dispenser for
the pre rinse cycle and secondly through the main wash section for all other cycles.
3.4.2 Mixing the Detergent
Filling cold water enters the detergent dispenser, flushing the detergent from the cup,
through the dispenser into the tub.
3.4.3 Amount of Water
The tub fills with approximately 2.2 litres of water, level with the base of the spray arm
attachment. Once this level is reached, the wash pump (which has sensed the fill at 30
second intervals during the fill), becomes primed and pumps the water through the
spray arm which will then rotate.
The water level is monitored by sensing the motor load through the electronics.
