Braided Hose/Copper Tubing

After connections are made turn on the water supply to check for leaks.
• Hot water supply line: Use minimum 3/8" O.D. copper tubing or metal
braided dishwasher supply line.
• Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will damage the dishwasher's water
inlet valve so if any such operation is needed, keep the heat source min. 77/8" (200mm)
away from the dishwasher's water inlet valve.
• There should not be any sharp bends in the water line that may restrict the water flow.
• Teflon tape or pipe tread compound must be used for sealing the connection. Before
connecting the copper water supply line to the dishwasher, flush it with hot water to clear
any foreign material.
After connections are made turn on the water supply to check for leaks.

a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service
representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded.
