HOT WATER CONNECTION
WARNING: SCALD HAZARD - Working on a charged hot water line could result in serious injury or death. Do not attempt any work on the dishwasher hot water supply plumb- ing until you are certain the hot water supply is shut off.
NOTE: Make certain that the correct 90° elbow fitting (not supplied) for the hot water supply line has been purchased and installed on the dishwasher as described in the Dishwasher Prepara- tion section of this manual.
The hot water supply line may be connected to the dishwasher in one of two ways:
1)With braided hose
2)With copper tubing
Braided Hose
Ensure that all threaded connections are sealed with teflon tape or pipe thread compound.
Copper Tubing
CAUTION: Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will damage the dishwasher’s water inlet valve. If plumbing lines are to be soldered or sweated, keep the heat source at least 6 inches (152.4 mm) away from the dishwasher’s water inlet valve.
• If using a solder joint instead of a compression fitting, be sure to make all solder connections before connecting the water line to the dishwasher.
• Make certain there are no sharp bends or kinks in the water line that might restrict water flow.
• When connecting threaded pipe use pipe thread compound or Teflon tape to seal the connection.
• Before connecting the copper hot water supply line to the dishwasher, flush it with hot water to clear any foreign material.
• Turn on the water supply to check for leaks after making connections.
