7.1.2 WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
Water supply may be connected to the
dishwasher in one of two ways:
 With braided metal hose
 With copper tubing
7.1.3 BRAIDED HOSE/COPPER TUBING
After connections are made, turn on the
water supply to check for leaks.
CAUTION
 Hot water supply line: Use minimum 3/8” O.D. copper tubing or metal braided dishwasher
supply line.
 Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will damage the dishwasher’s water inlet
valve, so if any such operation is needed, keep the heat source a minimum of 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 thread 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.
NOTICE:
After connections are made, turn on the water supply to check for leaks.

 Make sure the voltage and frequency listed on the data plate correspond with the
household electrical supply. This data must correspond to prevent injury and machine

 Only connect the dishwasher to the power line when all installation and plumbing work
is complete.
 Do not use any extension cord or portable outlet device to connect the dishwasher to a
power supply.
