Water Line Connection
• Turn off the water supplg.
• Install a hand shut-off vatve in on accessible
location. (Optional, but strongtg recommended and
mag be required bg local codes.)
• The water connection is on the left side of the
dishwasher. Install the hot water inlet line, using
3/8" or larger copper tubing. Route the line as
shown in Figure F and extend forward at least 19"
from rear wall.
• Adjust the water heater to deliver water between
120°F and 150°F.
• Flush water line to clean out debris. Use a bucket
to catch water and debris.
• The hot water supplg line pressure must be
between 20 and 120 PSt.
CAUTION
The hot water supply line pressure must be at least 20 PSI.
Lower pressures could cause the water valve to leak and
cause water damage.
Sink Utility Connections
Sink faucet hot and cold water lines and the sink
drain line must run above and adjacent to the
dishwasher, not behind it. Refer to Areas A and C
in Figure A on page 3 and Figure F1 below. This is
necessarg to provide clearance for the dishwasher
when it is installed in the cabinet. Utilitg lines routed
directlg behind the dishwasher will interfere with
placement of the dishwasher in the cabinet and
cause it to extend begond the adjacent cabinets.
Figure F1 illustrates an installation using a double
bowl sink, a disposer and a high drain loop.
Note: All utilitg lines are above, below or adjacent to
the dishwasher. None are routed behind it.
