Water Supply; Locating The Dishwasher; Levelling The Dishwasher; Drain Hose Connection - GE GLFS1224SSI Use & Care Manual

Water supply

Connect the cold water supply hose to a
threaded 3/4" connector and make sure that
it is firmly fastened in place. If water pipes
are new or have not been used for an ex-
tended period of time, let the water run to
make sure that supply water is clear and free
of debris. If this precaution is not taken, the
water inlet can get blocked and damage the
appliance.

Locating the dishwasher

Install the appliance in the desired location.
The back should rest against the wall behind
it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets
or wall.
Levelling the appliance
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust lev-
eling legs (screwing them in or out) so you
can level and adjust the height of the dish-
washer. In any case, the appliance should
not be inclined more than 2".

Drain hose connection

Insert the end of the drain hose into a drain
pipe with a minimum diameter of 4 cm, or let
it run through the sink drain, making sure to
avoid kinks or crushing the hose.
Use the special plastic support that comes
with the appliance. The top of the hose must
be at a height within 40 cm and 100 cm. The
end of the hose should not be immersed in
water.
The dishwasher can also be connected to a
hot water line (centralized system, heating
system), as long as it does not exceed a tem-
perature of 60 ºC. In this case, the wash cycle
time will be shortened by about 15 minutes
and the wash efficiency slightly reduced. The
connection must be made to the hot water
line following the same procedure as the
connection to the cold water line.
The dishwasher is equipped with water sup-
ply and drain hoses that can be positioned to
the right or the left to facilitate proper instal-
lation.
