Asko D5636XLHSPH Installation Instruction

If the cord is not long enough, or if a hard-wire installation

is needed, follow the steps below to complete the

electrical connection.

WARNING!

Before starting this procedure, be sure the power is
turned off at the breaker/fuse box.

4. Connect ground wire to ground connection screw

on the bottom.

NOTE:

When doing a hard-wire installation, you must remove

the supplied power cord.

TESTING FOR LEAKS

1. Turn on the water supply and check for leaks.
2. Turn the power on at breaker/fuse box and test the

dishwasher operation by running a Rinse & Hold

cycle. (This should take about six minutes.)

3. Turn off the electrical power and check for leaks

under the dishwasher and sink.

4. Make sure that no kinks have developed in the drain

lines.

If there are no leaks and the dishwasher seems to

be working properly, continue with the installation.

In order to prevent heat damage to the inlet valve, all

solder connections must be made before the water

supply line is connected.
Flush the water supply line prior to connecting it to the

water fill tube.
The unit has a float switch in the base pan to protect

against flooding. If the inlet valve connection is not

seated properly, water may leak into the base pan and

activate the float switch.
Water connection should be carried out by a qualified

professional. It is important that the water supply line

and the shut-off valve have a sufficient flow volume. At

least 3 gallons (12 liters) per minute must be able to

pass through the line. Connect the machine using the

accompanying supply hose. Water pressure should be

4.2-140 PSI. There should be a shut off valve on the

water pipe.
If the pipes are newly installed, it may be wise to flush

them through so that any debris is washed away.

Otherwise, debris can clog the filter in the machine’s

water intake and cut off the water supply.
Only use the inlet hose supplied with the machine. Do

not reuse old or other loose inlet hoses.
Use the supplied O ring and tighten the connection by

hand plus a quarter turn with a wrench.

NOTE:

Be sure to run the PEX tubing through the hole leading

to the sink compartment before moving the dishwasher

into position.

1. Connect supply cable with

a UL-listed strain relief

bushing (if nonmetallic

cable is to be used).

2. Connect branch circuit

white lead to N lead on

filter.

3. Connect branch circuit

black lead to L lead on filter.
