WARNING: SCALD HAZARD - Serious injury could result if work is performed on a charged hot water line. Only qualified plumbers should perform plumbing work. Do not attempt any work on the dishwasher hot water supply plumb- ing until you are certain the hot water supply is shut off.
CAUTION: Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will damage the dishwasher’s base and 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 base and water inlet valve.
Hot Water Supply
The hot water heater should be set to deliver approximately 120° F (49° C) water to the dish- washer. Water that is too hot can cause some detergents to lose effectiveness. Lower water temperatures will increase run times.
The hot water supply pressure must be between 15 - 145 psi (1 - 10 bars).

NOTE: Decide whether braided hose or copper tubing will be used for the hot water supply plumbing, and purchase the correct type of hot water supply
