IKEA DW60 - Manual (Page 20)

If a repair is necessary, the appliance must be
easily accessible for the engineer.
Put the appliance adjacent to a water tap and
a drain.
For the venting of the dishwasher only water
fill, water drain and power supply cable open-
ings are necessary.
Water connection
This appliance has a special inlet hose for
water stop later defined as aqualock.
Water inlet hose
Connected the appliance to a hot (max. 60°)
or cold water supply.
If the hot water comes from alternative sources
of energy that are more environmentally
friendly (e.g. solar or photovoltaic panels and
aeolian), use a hot water supply to decrease
energy consumption.
Connect the inlet hose to a water tap with an
external thread of 3/4".
Caution! Do not use connection hoses
from an old appliance.
Caution! If you connect the appliance to
new pipes or pipes that are not used for
a long time, we recommend to run the water
for some minutes before you connect the inlet
hose.
Aqualock inlet hose
The inlet hose is a high pressure resistant. It can
hold pressure at maximum 6 MPa. From ex-
ternal the inlet hose has a sheathing against
eventual damages. If the inner hose breaks,
the water that is in the hose will became dark.
You can see it across the special transparent
sheathing. Turn off the water tap immediately
and contact the After Sales Service.
A
B
The aqualock inlet
hose is installed with
a safety device to
prevent accidental
loosening. To discon-
nect the hose:
• Press the lever ( B ).
• Turn the retaining
ring ( A ) anticlock-
wise.
Turn the inlet hose to
the left or the right to
suit the installation.
Tight the locknut cor-
rectly to prevent wa-
ter leaks.
If you use a inlet
hose extension
the total reached
length must be no
longer than 4 metres.
Drain hose
A
If you connect the
water drain hose to a
water trap under the
sink, remove the
plastic membrane
(A). If you do not re-
move the membrane,
remaining food can
cause a blockage in
the drain hose spigot.
Caution! Make
sure that the
water couplings are
tight to prevent wa-
ter leakage.
