NOTE: Make certain that the correct 90°
elbow fitting (not supplied) for the hot
water supply line has been purchased
and installed on the dishwasher as
described in the Dishwasher Prepara-
tion section of this manual.
The hot water supply line may be
connected to the dishwasher in one of
two ways:
1) With braided hose
2) With copper tubing
Braided Hose
Ensure that all threaded connections
are sealed with teflon tape or pipe
thread compound.
Copper Tubing
CAUTION: Temperatures required for
soldering and sweating will damage
the dishwasher’s water inlet valve. If
plumbing lines are to be soldered or
sweated, keep the heat source at least
6 inches  (152.4 mm) away from the
dishwasher’s water inlet valve.
 •  If using a solder joint instead of a
compression fitting,  be sure to make all
solder connections before connecting
the water line to the dishwasher.
•  Make certain there are no sharp
bends or kinks in the water line that
might restrict water flow.
•  When connecting threaded pipe use
pipe thread compound or Teflon tape to
seal the connection.
•  Before connecting the copper hot
water supply line to the dishwasher,
flush it with hot water to clear any
foreign material.
•  Turn on the water supply to check for
leaks after making connections.
