.k2se
can burst
if it is installed on
the same sink with your dish washe~
M.@ suggest that you disconnect
the
sink spray attachment if your
sink has one am' plug the hole.
2. Attach the Unicouple connector
to the faucet adapter by depressing
collar at the top of the connector.
When Unicouple is all the way up
onto the adapter, release the collar.
It will then snap into position to
lock the Unicouple in place.
The Unicouple's small hose carries
water from the faucet to the
dishwasher. Its large hose carries
drain water to the sink. Be sure
drain hose is pointing toward the
sink bowl drain opening and the
sink drain is open for water that
will drain from your dishwasher. If
your dishwasher drains into a dis-
poser, operate the disposer until it
is completely empty before start-
ing the dishwasher.
3. Turn hot water fully on before
starting the dishwasher.
The Faucet-Flo nozzle is part of
the Unicouple connector. Operate
the nozzle by depressing the
pressure release lever on the side
of the Unicouple connector. You
will find the Faucet-Flo nozzle
useful for several reasons:
@It allows you to flush cold water
out of the hot water line so that
you can better regulate your water
temperature.
@It allows you to test the
temperature of the water before
starting your dishwasher.
If you need fresh water for
personal use:
Disconnect the Unicouple.
Draw your fresh water directly from
your faucet.
Do not disconnect the Unicouple
while the dishwasher is operating.
