6.5 DRAIN PREPARATION

The dishwasher drain hose may be connected to the drain plumbing in one of three ways (Figure A, B, C).

Notice :

•Either one of the above methods must be used or the dishwasher will not operate properly.

•A hose that attaches to a sink spray can burst if it is installed on the same water line as the dishwasher. If your sink has one, it is recommended that the hose be disconnected and the hole plugged.

•The total length of the drain hose is 763/4” (1950mm). If a hose extension is required, a drainage hose of equal quality must be used.

•The maximum length must not exceed 157 ½” (4000mm). Otherwise, the cleaning process is negatively influenced.
