6.6 DRAIN PREPARATION
The dishwasher drain hose may be connected to the drain plumbing in one of three ways (Figure A,
B, C).
NOTICE :
Either one of the above methods must be used or the dishwasher will not operate properly.
•
A hose that attaches to a sink spray can burst if it is installed on the same water line as the
•
dishwasher. If your sink has one, it is recommended that the hose be disconnected and the hole
plugged.
The total length of the drain hose is 763/4" (1950mm). If a hose extension is required, a
•
drainage hose of equal quality must be used.
The maximum length must not exceed 157 ½" (4000mm). Otherwise, the cleaning process is
•
negatively influenced.

6.6.1 UNDER THE SINK DRAIN
Install a Y-branch tail pipe. (Figure A)
NOTICE :
You must add a loop at least 28" (710mm)
above the floor of the cabinet and above
the drain connection in the drain hose to
prevent waste water from not draining
properly, and causing either poor washing
results or a bad odor.
6.6.2 INSTALLING AN AIR GAP
If the local ordinance requires an air gap
(Figure B).
NOTICE :
Check with local ordinance for type of air
gap required.
6.6.3 DISPOSAL
Remove the drain connection plug
before attaching the drain hose from the
dishwasher.
Every disposal has a hook up for a
dishwasher; consult your disposer manual
for correct connection. (Figure C)
