Installation Instructions
PREPARE HOT WATER LINE
• The line may enter from either side, rear or fl oor 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" dia. hole to 
accommodate the water line. If power cord with plug is used, 
water line must not pass through power cord hole.

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.)
• Water connection is on the left side of the dishwasher. Install 
the hot water inlet line, using no less than 3/8" O.D. copper 
tubing. Route the line as shown in Figure F and extend 
forward at least 18" from rear wall.
• Adjust water heater for 120°F to 150°F temperature.
• Flush water line to clean out debris.
• The hot water supply line pressure must be 20-120 PSI.

• If adjustments are needed, see Step 1A. If no adjustments are 
needed, skip to Step 2.
