WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
The water supply may be connected in one of the following ways:
1. With braided metal hose
2. With copper tubing
CAUTION:
Hot water supply line: Use minimum 3/4" O.D. copper tubing or metal braided dishwasher supply
line.
The water Inlet valve of the dishwasher has a 3/4"-11.5NH inlet coupling thread dimension according to ASME
B1.20.7-1991.
When obtaining a water inlet hose for your dishwasher, please choose the thread dimension of the inlet hose as
compatible with indicated water inlet valve inlet coupling thread dimension (3/4"-11.5NH) of your dishwasher.
•
Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will damage the dishwasher's water inlet valve so if
any such operation is needed, be sure to keep the heat source min. 7 7/8" (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.
When all connections have been made, turn on the water supply to check for leaks.

STEAM PROTECTION FOIL
Steam will be output when the dishwasher door is opened during the operation of the dishwasher and after
completion of the working cycle. In order to prevent the resulting steam from collecting and damaging at the
underside of the counter top, use a steam protection foil included in the plastic bag.
Clean the surface with a damp cloth before applying steam protection to the underside of the counter top.
CAUTION:
Steam protection foil must be applied where the steam escapes when door is first opened.
Failure to install the steam protection foil during installation can lead to damage to the cabinets and
countertop.
