Connecting the Hot Water Supply
There are two plastic corrugated hoses that exit the
back of the dishwasher. The larger hose, with the
brass fitting on the end, is the water supply hose to
the dishwasher (the other hose is the dishwasher
drain hose). You will need a 3Ǝ x 1
3/4
Ǝ (76 x 45 mm)
opening through the cabinet to pass the dish-washer
water supply line through toward the shut off valve.
Figure 9
To connect the hot water supply:
1. Assemble the water supply adaptor fitting (H)
from the parts bag onto the dishwasher water
supply hose. This connection does not require
Teflon brand tape
2. Pass the dishwasher water supply line with
attached adaptor through the opening toward the
water shut off valve. Take care not to allow the
hose to kink or twist behind the dishwasher.
3. Connect the dishwasher water supply line with
adaptor to the water shut off valve. You will need
to use an approved dishwasher water supply line
with the correct fittings for this connection.
Always use the appropriate seal when making
plumbing connections.
NOTE: The end of the dishwasher water inlet hose is
heavy and will need to be supported. It is best to lay
the end on the cabinet floor as shown in Figure 9.
4. After all connections are made, turn on the hot
water and check for leaks.
Drain Connections
The dishwasher drain hose may be connected to
the house-hold or field drain plumbing in one of four
ways. You will need a 1
1/4
" diameter hole in order to
pass the drain hose through the cabinet.
1. Directly under the sink dishwasher drain
connection, as shown in Figure 11.
2. Directly to a disposer dishwasher drain
connection, as shown in Figure 12.
3. To the under sink dishwasher drain connection
through an air gap, as shown in Figure 13.
4. To a disposer dishwasher drain connection
through an air gap, as shown on Figure 14.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
x If local ordinance require an air gap, install it
according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
x If the dishwasher drain hose is to be connected
to a disposer dishwasher drain connection,
remove the plug from the disposer’s dishwasher
drain connection.
x The dishwasher drain hose must have one place
along its length that is securely attached 20Ǝ (508
mm) above the cabinet floor.
x The drain hose length can be extended if
necessary. The maximum length of the drain
hose, including the hose leading to the air gap, is
150Ǝ (3800 mm).
