10. Make the p_umbing
connections
An air gap is built into the water inlet
system to prevent potable water from
mixing with waste water.
The dishwasher can heat its own water
to the temperatures required by the
wash program. This allows the option of
connecting the machine to either a hot
or cold water source.
[] For lowest energy consumption
connect the dishwasher to a cold
water source.
[] For fastest possible wash times, with
slightly higher energy consumption,
connect the dishwasher to a hot
water source.
Hot water supply specifications:
Recommended temperature:
120 °F (49 °C)
max 140 °F (60 °C)
Water pressure:
Must be between 5 - 145 psi
(0.3 -10 bar).
If the water pressure is tee low, the
"Intake/Drain" or "Intake" indicator may
flash (see "Operating Instructions/
Frequently asked questions").
If the water pressure is toe high, a
pressure reducer must be installed.
New plumbing:
The water inlet hose comes equipped
with a 3/,, female hose thread con-
_4
necter. This can be directly connected
to a shut off valve with s/4"MHT (male
hose thread ends).
Preferred Installation:
The hose assembly should be installed
vertically so the hose exits from the
bottom of the valve box (not as shown).
If this is net possible, it can be installed
horizontally, provided the hose exit
remains beneath the main body of the
valve box (see illustration). The valve
box should also be installed so that it is
at least 10" (24 cm) above the floor (or
base of the cabinet), so that the excess
coiled hose will remain lower than the
valve box at all points.
