Preparing The Water Connection (A) - Blomberg DWT37300 Installation Manual

6.5 PREPARING THE WATER CONNECTION (A)

Install an easily accessible shut-off valve (not supplied) in the water supply line. All solder
connections must be made before the water line is connected to the dishwasher's water
inlet valve. Water can also be supplied to the dishwasher by using a flexible braided hose
line.
Check with your plumbing supply sources for the proper hose and 90° elbow and
necessary fittings for the water supply line. This material is not supplied, and must be
purchased separately.
WARNING
Installation should be performed by a qualified installer. Work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous and may void the warranty.
If the dishwasher is installed in a location that experiences freezing temperatures
(e.g. in a vacation home, cabin etc.), you must drain all the water from the
dishwasher's interior. Water system ruptures that occur as a result of freezing are
not covered by warranty.
6.5.1 INSTALLING THE 90° ELBOW FITTING
(B)
CAUTION
Do not over tighten the 90° elbow. Doing
so may damage the water inlet valve and
cause a water leak.
If the water supply line is to be copper
tubing, make certain that the elbow has a
compression fitting. Apply Teflon tape or other
pipe sealant when required. Orient the water
supply connection downwards as shown in the
figure so the water line can be easily pulled
underneath or on the side of the dishwasher.
6.5.2 JUNCTION BOX PREPARATION (C)
Remove the junction box cover by removing
the screws as shown in the figure. They will be
reinstalled later.
