INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Positioning the Dishwasher

The  back of the dishwasher should be positioned against 

a wall and the sides of the dishwasher between two walls 

or cabinets. Make sure your location has the correct drain, 

water and electrical outlets to attach the connections.

Leveling the Dishwasher

The height of the dishwasher may be adjusted by 

turning the leveling legs. Do not incline the 

dishwasher more than 2 inches (5.08cm).

Electric Shock Hazard

Grounding Instructions:

The dishwasher must be connected to a grounded metal,

permanent wiring system or an equipment-grounding

conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and

connected to the appliance’s equipment grounding terminal

or lead. It is the consumer’s responsibility to contact a

qualified installer to make sure the electrical installation

conforms with the National Electrical Code and local codes

and ordinances.
Do not connect the dishwasher to the power supply until the

appliance is permanently grounded.

Do not use an extension cord. Such use can result in fire,

electrical shock, or other personal injury.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in death or

serious injury.

WARNING

Water Line Connection

Cold Water Line Connection

Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 

3/4 inch connector and ensure that it is fastened 

tightly in place. 

Flush water line before connecting it to the water 

inlet valve to prevent early clogging of filter screen.

Drain Hose Connection

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a 

mininum diameter of 40mm or let it run into the 

sink, ensuring it is not bent or crimped.

Draining Excess Water from Hoses

If the distance between the sink and floor is over

1,000mm, the excess water in the hose cannot be 

drained directly into the sink. The excess water 

will have to be drained from the hose into a separate 

bowl or container that is lower than the sink.

Water Outlet

Connect the water drain hose. The drain hose must

be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. Ensure that 

the water drain hose is not kinked or squashed.

Extension Hose

If a drain hose extension is required, use a similar

drain hose that is no longer than 4 meters. Otherwise,

the cleaning performance may be reduced.

Air Gap

If you connect to a sink trap, local codes may require

you to install and air gap kit (not included). The drain

hose will be routed from the dishwasher to the air

gap inlet. An air gap kit is available from a plumbing

supply store. ( If the drain hose is installed through

the floor, an air gap is necessary.)
