Plumbing -- Water inlet connection
IMPORTANT!
The appliance should be connected to the water main using the new water inlet hose supplied.
Old hoses should not be used.
Do not shorten the inlet hose.
1 Take note of water connection requirements.
The dishwasher has a single valve water connection.
We recommend a cold water connection for best performance and energy efficiency.
The incoming water temperature should not exceed 25
2 Take note of the permitted water pressure extremes.
Lowest: 0.3 bar = 3 N/cm2 = 30kPa
Where pressure is below 1 bar, contact a qualified plumber.
Highest: 10 bar = 100 N/cm2 = 1MPa
Where pressure is above 10 bar, a pressure reduction valve must be installed. Contact a qualified
plumber.
3 Connect the water inlet hose to an accessible water tap with a 3/4" BSP connector. Ensure that
there is no kink in the inlet hose that could restrict the flow of water. A 90
minimum height of 200mm for a kink-free curve.
Ensure incoming water is clear. If the water pipes have not been used for a long period of time,
let the water run to make sure it is clear with no impurities. Not doing so may result in the water
inlet hose getting blocked and damaging the appliance.
If required, use a filter insert to filter out deposits from the piping. The filter insert is
available from your Authorised Service Centre or Customer Care.
4 Tighten the hose coupling a further half turn after seal contact.
