Installation Instructions
Unpacking the Dishwasher
Use at least two people to move and install the dishwasher to prevent
back and other types of injuries. Carefully remove the packaging materi-
als. Remove any shipping tape and glue from your dishwasher before
using. Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or
abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage
the surface of your dishwasher. Check to make sure the parts necessary
for installation are included. If any parts are missing, please contact our
customer service team. Put the dishwasher on a level and flat surface
that is able to support the entire weight of the dishwasher fully loaded.
Installation Requirements
The dishwasher is designed for a countertop installation. Please follow
the instructions for clearance, water and electrical requirements.
Clearance Requirements
The minimum height clearance required to install your dishwasher on a
counter top surface with overhead cupboards is 45cm (17.7”).
Water Requirements
Make sure the water supply/
faucet connection is within reach of the inlet
and drain hose assembly (i.e., 58 cm / 22.8”). If your sink has a spray
wand, it is recommended that the hose be disconnected and the hole
plugged.
Water Temperature
For best results, the water temperature must be at least 55ºC (130ºF). To
prevent damage to the dishwasher, the temperature of the incoming wa-
ter supply should not exceed 65ºC (149ºF).
Electrical Requirements
Read all safety precautions listed at the beginning of this manual. It is
recommended that you use receptacles that cannot be turned off by a
switch or pull chain.
Electrical Connection
Ensure the voltage and frequency of the power
source
being
used
corresponds to those on the rating plate. Only insert the plug into an
electrical socket which is earthed properly. If the
only available
electrical
socket the appliance
can
be connected
to
is not
compatible with the the
prong
plug, replace the socket, rather than using a
n
adapter
or the like as
they could cause overheating and
safety issues
.
Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be earthed. In the event of a malfunction or break-
down, earthing will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of
least resistance for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a
cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and an earthing plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and
earthed in accordance with all local standards and requirements.
A hose that attaches to a spray
wand can burst if it is installed on
the same water line as the dish-
washer.
Do not, under any circumstances,
cut or remove the third (ground)
prong from the power cord.
