Filling With Water - Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer DD60 Series Service Manual

4 TECHNICAL OVERVIEW

4.15 Filling with Water

The wash tubs of the DishDrawer fill by a single water inlet hose. Cold water connection
recommended for the AU & NZ markets.
From the connection to the water supply tap in the kitchen, the inlet hose enters the cabinet of the
dishwasher at the base, into a dual water valve.
Each tub is supplied water independently via one of the dual valve coils and a fill hose that runs
through a customised link assembly at the back of each tub and travels along the base of the tub
under the wiring cover to the front.
At the front of the tub, the fill hose connects to the water softener (if fitted) then to the detergent
dispenser which directs water into the tub.
The controller allows only one inlet valve coil to operate at a time, and the top tub always has priority
on fill.
4.15.1 Dispensing Detergent and Rinse Aid
The dispenser is mounted in the front of the wash tub,
and is held in place with 2 brackets and 6 T10 torx
screws.
The dispenser consists of 2 separate detergent
chambers. The large one is the main wash bucket, the
smaller one is utilised for any extra detergent required
for hard water areas.
The detergent dispenser door is opened manually to fill
the detergent buckets, and is then closed manually.
There is a positive displacement pump unit and storage
tank incorporated within the dispenser to dispense rinse
aid.
The rinse aid volume dispensed is adjusted through the
user preference options, refer to section 5.
When the rinse aid tank is empty, a glowing red light
on the tank filler cap will alert the customer to refill the
rinse aid tank.
