7.1.2 WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
Water supply may be connected to the
dishwasher in one of two ways:
• With metal braided hose.
• With copper tubing.
CAUTION
• Hot water supply line: Use minimum 3/8”
O.D. copper tubing or metal braided
dishwasher supply line.
• Temperatures required for soldering and
sweating will damage the dishwasher’s
water inlet valve so if any such operation
is needed, keep the heat source
min. 77/8” (200mm) away from the
dishwasher’s water inlet valve.
• There should not be any sharp bends in
the water line that may restrict the water
flow.
• Teflon tape or pipe tread compound
must be used for sealing the connection.
Before connecting the copper water
supply line to the dishwasher, flush it with
hot water to clear any foreign material.
NOTICE :
After connections are made turn on the
water supply to check for leaks.

WARNING
• Make sure the voltage and frequency
listed on the data plate correspond with
the household electrical supply. This data
must correspond to prevent injury and
machine damage. Consult a qualified
electrician if in doubt.
• Only connect the dishwasher to the
mains when all installation and plumbing
work is complete.
• Do not use any extension cord or
portable outlet device to connect the
dishwasher to a power supply.
• The power-supply receptacle for the
appliance shall be installed in a cabinet
or on a wall adjacent to the undercounter
space in which the appliance is to be
installed.
• The access hole of the supply cord to the
installation compartment must be smooth
and rounded and it must be large enough
for the attachment plug to pass through.
The longest dimension of the opening
shall not be more than 1,5” (38 mm).If the
partition is metal, it needs to be covered
with an edge protector.
• Care must be taken when the appliance

an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is installed
and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances. This appliance
must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system, or an equipment-
grounding conductor must be run with the
circuit conductors and connected to the
equipment-grounding terminal or lead on
the appliance.
WARNING
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or service representative if
you are in doubt whether the appliance is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the appliance, if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician.
