Connection to the water supply
Installation, repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous.
Do not drink water from the dishwasher!
–The dishwasher can heat its own water to the temperature required by the wash program. This allows for connection of the machine to either a hot (max. 140°F / 60°C) or cold water source.
For lowest energy consumption and for fastest possible wash times connect the dishwasher to a hot water source. All programs use hot water in the rinse cycles.
–To use the "Energy Saver" program, a hot water connection of minimum 115°F / 45°C and maximum 140°F / 60°C (water intake temperature) is necessary.
The higher the water intake temperature, the better the cleaning and drying results.
–The inlet hose is approximately 5 ft. (1.5 m) long.
–The water inlet hose comes equipped with an inlet hose ending with a 3/8" female compression fitting. This can be directly connected to a water supply valve or to an appropriate coupling.
If not connected directly to a water supply valve, an appropriate adapter (not included) is required.
–Water pressure: Must be between 4.5 - 145 psi (0.3 - 10 bar).
–If the water pressure if lower, a "Water Intake" notification will be shown. See "Frequently Asked Questions" for more information.
–If the water pressure is higher than shown, a pressure reducing valve must be used.
Ensure that the water connection is secure after the first use.
To prevent damage to the dishwasher, it must only be connected to a fully vented drainage system.
Do not cut the intake hose. If the hose is cut, the dishwasher will not work. There will be a water leak. If the hose is too long, coil it neatly and place it behind or under the machine.
