The drain hose can also be connected to a connection nipple on the sink unit's water trap. The
connection nipple must have an internal diameter of at least 1/2'' (14 mm).
The drain hose may be extended by a maximum of 87" (2.2 m) (the total length of the drain hose
must not exceed 177" (4.5 m)). Any joints and connecting pipes must have an internal diameter of
at least 1/2'' (14 mm). However, the drain hose should ideally be replaced with a new hose without
joints.
No part of the drain hose may be more than 37 3/8'' (950 mm) above the bottom of the dishwasher.
Attach the drain hose with a hose clamp. Ensure that the drain hose has no kinks.

Connection to water supply

Use only the inlet hose supplied with the dishwasher. Do not re-use old or other spare hoses.
The supply pipe must be fitted with a water supply valve. The water supply valve must be easily
accessible, so that the water can be shut off if the dishwasher has to be moved.
Once the installation is complete, turn on the water supply valve and allow the pressure to settle for
a while. Check that all connections are watertight.
Water supply
The machine can be connected to either a cold or a hot (max. 140 °F (60 °C)) water supply. The
water pressure should be 4.2-140 psi (0.03-1.0 MPa).
Connect to cold water
Connect the dishwasher to the cold water supply if the building is heated using oil, electricity, or
gas.
Connect to hot water
Connect the dishwasher to the hot water supply (max. 140 °F (60 °C)) if the building is heated using
an energy-efficient means such as district heating, solar power, or geothermal power. Choosing a
hot water connection reduces the dishwasher's energy consumption.
NOTE!
Do not exceed the permitted water supply temperature. Certain materials used in some cookware
cannot withstand high temperatures. See Fragile dishes in the chapter Loading the dishwasher.

Electrical connection

Information about the electrical connection can be found on the serial number plate. This specification
must match the electricity supply.
The power outlet for the appliance shall be installed in a cabinet or on a wall adjacent to the
undercounter space in which the appliance is to be installed. Do not use an extension cord for this
appliance.
The access hole for the electrical supply must be round and smooth and no bigger than 1 1/2''
(38 mm) in diameter. If the partition is metal, it needs to be covered with an edge protector.
Use caution when the appliance is installed or removed to reduce the likelihood of damage to the
power cord.
