CONNECT TO A DRAINAGE SYSTEM...
WARNING
Connect your dishwasher drain hose to
pipes which connect to the foul drain
system,and not to surface water drains.
IMPORTANT NOTES
For the correct operation of your
dishwasher,it is essential to comply with
the following information.
Standpipe
Ensure that the hose is not pushed too far
down the standpipe.
If the end of your drain
hose is fitted with ‘retaining
flaps’,ensure that they are
inserted fully into the
standpipe.This will prevent
the pipe from jumping out
during installation and
machine use.
DO NOT position the standpipe near an
electrical outlet.
ENSURE that the drain hose is not kinked
and it is routed as shown in the diagram.
The standpipe should be connected to:
a) A discharge stack-pipe
b) An external gulley OR
c) A sink waste.
The standpipe should have a bore of at
least 38mm (1
1
/2"). It should be installed as
shown,have a trap fitted and must dis-
charge into the same drain system as your
household sink.
It must NOT be connected to a surface
water drain.
Sink Waste System
For under sink drainage:
Before connecting the drain hose,
remove any internal restrictions - This
will prevent a build up of debris which
could cause a blockage.
Remove any restrictions from the waste
spigot and ensure that the sealing
bung is removed.The hose should be
routed, such that it is raised to a
minimum height of 800mm (3
1
/2
")
Note:Ensure the sink outlet pipe has a
minimum diameter of 32mm.
1. Untie the end of the GREY drainage
hose from the rear of the appliance.
2. Reposition ‘Hooked End Support’as
required along GREY drainage hose.
3. If fitting an under sink waste disposal
unit,cut out the membrane,bung or
blanking plug.
4. Attach the GREY drainage hose to
the under sink waste disposal unit
securely,using the clip and rubber
tube supplied.
Ensure the drain hose is securely attached,
to prevent it coming away while the
machine is in use and causing a flood.
