Water Connection, Disconnecting Your Dishwasher

Installation Instructions

WATER CONNECTION (cont)

1.Screw the faucet adapter onto (or into) the faucet tap. Check for leaks (use Teflon tape to eliminate if necessary).

2.Connect the six-sided connection of the drain hose to the drain port connection on the back of the dishwasher cabinet. Do not over-tighten (to avoid damage to threads.)

3.Connect the star-shaped connection of the inlet hose to the inlet port on the back of the dishwasher cabinet. Do not over-tighten (to avoid damage to threads.)

4.Connect the circular connection of the drain hose onto the longer (bottom) male connection on the quick connect.

5.Connect the circular connection of the inlet hose onto the shorter (top) male connection on the quick connect.

6.Attach the quick connect onto the faucet adapter, by pulling down the outer locking collar on the quick connect, while pushing the quick connect upward onto the faucet adapter.

7.When the quick connect snaps onto the faucet adapter, release the locking col- lar. Verify the connection is secure.

8.Slowly open the hot water line and check for any sign of water leaks at all hose connections. If leaks are located, immediately turn off the water supply and repair the hose connections.

IMPORTANT

1.Once you open the water supply line, (even if it is closed immediately thereafter), the inlet hose will be pressurized.

2.To relieve water pressure from inside the inlet hose, first make sure the water line (faucet) is closed, then press and hold the red pressure relief button on the quick connect until the flow of water stops.

WARNING

Failure to relieve water pressure before disconnecting the quick connect from the faucet will result in back pressure over-spray.

The temperature of the incoming water can be very hot and can cause severe burns and/or scalding.

DANGER

Do not let children disconnect the dishwasher. Close supervision of chil- dren is always important around appliances.

NOTE: Hard water conditions will adversely affect the washing performance of your dishwasher. Hard water conditions will also contribute to 'lime' (white film substance) deposits and/or 'scaling' on the stainless steel surface of the dishwash- er tub and heater element, located in the sump underneath the removable filter screen. To minimize these conditions, it is recommended to operate/rinse the inside of the dishwasher (empty) using 1 cup of white vinegar once a week.

DISCONNECTING YOUR DISHWASHER

1.Shut off the water supply at the faucet.

2.Disconnect the power supply cord

3.Relieve water pressure

4.Pull down on the quick connect collar
