Preparing the Water Connection (A)
• Install an easily accessible shut-off valve (not
supplied) in the water supply line. All solder
connections must be made before the water line
is connected to the dishwasher's water inlet valve.
Water can also be supplied to the dishwasher by
using a exible braided hose line.
• Check with your plumbing supply sources for the
proper hose and 90° elbow and necessary ttings
for the water supply line. This material is not
supplied and must be purchased separately.

FOR YOUR SAFETY
NOTICE
Installation should be performed by a qualied
installer. Work by unqualied persons could be
dangerous and may void the warranty.
If the dishwasher is installed in a location that
experiences freezing temperatures (e.g. in a
vacation home, cabin, etc.), you must drain
all the water from the dishwasher's interior.
Water system ruptures that occur as a result of
freezing are not covered by warranty.
INSTALLATION PREPARATION
If the water supply line is to be copper tubing, make certain that
the elbow has a compression tting. Apply Teon tape or other
pipe sealant when required. Orient the water supply connection
downwards as shown in the gure so the water line can be easily
pulled underneath or on the side of the dishwasher.
