Installation Preparation

DRAIN REQUIREMENTS

•Follow local codes and ordinances.

•Do not exceed 10 feet distance to drain.

•To prevent back flow into the dishwasher, connect drain line to an air gap or use a 30” high drain loop, depending on local codes.

•Air gap must be used when waste tee or disposer connection is less than 18” above the floor to prevent siphoning.

DETERMINE DRAIN METHOD

The type of drain installation depends on the following questions.

■Do local codes or ordinances require an air gap?

■Will waste tee or disposer connection be less than 18” above the floor?

■Will installation have a high drain loop less than 30” above the floor?

If the answer to ANY of these questions is YES, Method 1 MUST be used.

• If all answers are NO, either method may be used.

An air gap MUST BE USED if the drain hose is con- nected to a waste tee or disposer lower than 18” above the floor level.

•Failure to provide the proper drain connection using an air gap or a 30” min. high drain loop will result in improper draining of the dishwasher which may cause damage or poor wash performance.

PRUDENCE

Il DOIT Y AVOIR une coupure antirefoulement si le tuyau de vidange est branché sur un raccord d’égout ou un broyeur d’ordures à moins de 46Ê cm (18 po) du sol.

•Si la vidange n’est pas branchée correctement en utilisant une coupure antirefoulement ou un boucle d’égout d’au moins 76 cm (30 po) de haut, l’écoulement de l’eau du lave-vaisselle n’est pas bon, ce qui peut causer des dommages ou un mauvais lavage de la vaisselle.

Method 1 – Air Gap with Waste Tee or Disposer An air gap must be used when the waste tee or disposer connection is less than 18” from the floor.

Method 2 – High Drain Loop with Waste Tee or Disposer Install waste tee or disposer and air gap according to manufacturer’s instructions.
