6.6 DRAIN PREPARATION
The dishwasher drain hose may be connected to the drain plumbing in one of three ways
(Figure
A
,
B
,
C
).
Notice :
Either one of the above methods must be used or the dishwasher will not operate
•
properly.
A hose that attaches to a sink spray can burst if it is installed on the same water line as
•
the dishwasher. If your sink has one, it is recommended that the hose be disconnected
and the hole plugged.
The total length of the drain hose is 76
•
3/4” (1950mm). If a hose extension is required, a
drainage hose of equal quality must be used.
The maximum length must not exceed 157 ½” (4000mm). Otherwise, the cleaning
•
process is negatively influenced.

6.6.1 UNDER THE SINK DRAIN
Install a Y-branch tail pipe. (Figure A )
Notice :
You must add a loop at least 28” (710mm) above the floor of
•
the cabinet and above the drain connection in the drain hose
to prevent waste water from not draining properly, and causing
either poor washing results or a bad odor.
6.6.2 INSTALLING AN AIR GAP
If the local ordinance requires an air gap (Figure B ).
Notice :
Check with local ordinance for type of air gap required.

6.6.3 DISPOSAL

Every disposal has a hook up for a dishwasher; consult your
disposer manual for correct connection. (Figure
