Water Valve Preparation
Install a 90° elbow (3/8” N.P.T) fitting into the water valve using Teflon™
tape or pipe thread compound. The opposite end of the fitting should fit
in-coming hot water supply line. Position the end of the elbow towards
the rear of the dishwasher.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT connect a sweat type fitting directly to the water
valve as the required heat will damage the water inlet valve. Do not solder
within 6” (15.2 cm) from the water valve.

Drain Hose Preparation
IMPORTANT: Routing of the drain hose is most important to insure satisfactory operation. It is not
recommended to extend drain line beyond T (2.1m). However, should this be necessary, it must always
be attached to a line of larger inside diameter. An accessory drain hose extension kit (#904204) is available
through your authorized dealer.
DO NOT route drain hose across the top of the tub, all bends must be
gradual to prevent kinking or collapsing of the hose.
IMPORTANT: Do not attach the drain hose to any connection smaller than 1/2” I.D.
IMPORTANT: Never cut the corrugated portion of the drain hose. All connections
must be made to rubber portions of drain hose. If cutting of drain hose is required do
not cut past the 5/8” line.
