An air gap MUST BE USED if the drain hose is connected to waste tee or disposer lower than 12” above the floor level.

Failure to provide the proper drain con- nection height, 12", with air gap or 30” minimum high drain loop will result in improper draining of the dishwasher which may cause damage.

ATTENTION

IL DOIT Y AVOIR un dispositif anti-retour si le tuyau de vidange est branché à un té d’égout ou à un broyeur d’ordures qui est à moins de 30 cm (12 po) au-dessus du sol.

Si le tuyau d’égout n’est pas branché à une bonne hauteur, au moins 30 cm (12 po), avec un dispositif anti-retour, ou si la boucle d’égout haute n’est pas à une hauteur d’au moins 75 cm (30 po), le lave-vaisselle se vidange mal, ce qui peut causer des dégâts.
