Plumbing Preparation

INLET WATER CONNECTIONS
Do not perform any work on a charged hot water
line. Serious injury could result. Only qualified
plumbers should perform plumbing work. Do not
attempt any work on the dishwasher hot water
supply plumbing until you are certain the hot
water supply is shut off.
Temperatures required for soldering and sweating
will damage the dishwasher. If plumbing lines are
to be soldered or sweated, keep the heat
source at least 6 inches (152.4 mm) away from
the dishwasher.
Hot Water Supply
The hot water heater should be set to deliver
approximately 120° F (49° C) water to the dishwasher.
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 bar).
IMPORTANT NOTES:
· If using a solder joint instead of a compression fitting,
be sure to make all solder connections before connect-
ing the water supply line to the dishwasher.
· Make sure there are no sharp bends or kinks in the
water line that might restrict water flow.
· Always use the appropriate seal when making plumb-
ing connections.
· Before connecting the water supply line to the
dishwasher, flush the incoming water line for
approximately 5 minutes to clear any foreign material.
· Turn on the water supply and check for leaks after
connections are made.
· Do not use pipe sealant on compression fittings.
