PREPARE HOT WATER LINE

• The line may enter from either side, rear or floor within the

shaded area shown in Figure F.

• The line may pass through the same hole as the electrical

cable and drain hose. Or, cut an additional 1-1/2" diameter
hole to accommodate the water line. If power cord with plug
is used, water line must not pass through power cord hole.

Figure F

Water Line Connection

• Turn off the water supply.
• Install a hand shut-off valve in an accessible location, such

as under the sink. (Optional, but strongly recommended and
may be required by local codes.)
