2 PREPARING THE LOCATION

Access holes in the cabinets, floor, or rear wall for the hot water supply line, drain line, and electrical supply must be located within the shaded area in Fig. 3 in order to avoid interference with the dishwasher frame or other components.

HOT WATER SUPPLY LINE

WARNING: PLUMBING CONNECTIONS MUST COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE SANITARY, SAFETY, AND PLUMBING CODES.

Water supply should be 140°F or lower depending on model (refer to Use and Care Guide).

The hot water supply line should be l/2” OD copper tubing or 3/g” galvanized pipe. The dishwasher fill valve has a 3/B” NPT female connection.

After determining where the water supply line will enter the dishwasher opening, drill a 1” access hole and run the line to the approximate fill valve location as shown in Fig. 4.
