Connecting The Electric Cable; Connecting The Water Supply; Adjusting The Leveling Legs - Asko D1976CSTM Installation Instructions Manual

CONNECTING THE ELECTRIC CABLE

If the cord is not long enough, or if a hard-wire
installation is needed, follow the steps below to
complete the electrical connection.
WARNING! Before starting this procedure, be sure
the power is turned off at the breaker/fuse box.
1. Connect supply cable with
a UL-listed strain relief
bushing (if nonmetallic
cable is to be used).
2. Connect branch circuit white
lead to white lead on main
terminal block.

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY

In order to prevent heat damage to the inlet valve, all
solder connections must be made before the water
supply line is connected.
Flush the water supply line prior to connecting it to the
water fill tube.
The unit has a float switch in the base pan to protect
against flooding. If the inlet valve connection is not
seated properly, water may leak into the base pan and
activate the float switch.
It is important that the water supply line and the shut-off
valve have a sufficient flow volume. At last 3 gallons (12
liters) per minute must be able to pass through the
line. The water pressure should be 18-176 psi.
TESTING FOR LEAKS
1. Turn on the water supply and check for leaks.
2. Turn the power on at breaker/fuse box and test the
dishwasher operation by running a Rinse cycle.
(This should take about four minutes.)
3. Turn off the electrical power and check for leaks

ADJUSTING THE LEVELING LEGS

Now that all the connections are made and the machine
is in place under the cabinet, you should make the final
height adjustment.
1. You should set the rear foot first. To do this, use a
screwdriver to rotate the
adjusting screw on the
bottom front of
machine. Turn the screw
clockwise to raise the foot
and anticlockwise to
lower it.

under the dishwasher and sink.
4. Make sure that no kinks have developed in the drain
lines.
If there are no leaks and the dishwasher seems to be
working properly, continue with the installation.
2. Using a 1/2" (12 mm)
wrench, adjust the locking
nuts until the machine is level.
(The machine may have an inclination of 2°
maximum without affecting its performance.)
3. When the feet are properly adjusted, tighten the
locking nuts to the base pan.
NOTE: When adjusting the unit lower than 33-1/4" (845

to be elongated. An accessory toe kick is also
available for this type of installation. Contact
your dealer to order.
