Water in the dishwasher must
not be used as drinking water.
– The dishwasher may be connected to
a cold or hot water supply up to a
maximum of 140°F/60°C.
For reduced energy consumption, we
recommend a cold water connection.
We recommend connection to a hot
water supply only if it is economical,
e. g. a solar-powered supply with re-
circulation line. When connected to a
hot water supply, all program phases
which would otherwise be carried out
with cold water will be carried out
with hot water
– The inlet hose is approx. 5 ft long. A
5 ft long flexible metal hose (pressure
tested to 2030 psi) is available as an
optional accessory if required.
– A faucet with a 3/8" male thread
must be provided on site.
– This appliance is constructed to
comply with ANSI/ASSE 1001 // IEC/
EN/DIN 61770 // VDE 0700 Part 600,
and may be connected to a suitable
supply without an extra non-return
valve if national regulations permit.
– The water pressure (flow pressure at
the connection point) must be be-
tween 7.25 - 145 psi. If the water
pressure is too high, a pressure relief
valve must be fitted.
After connecting the dishwasher to
the water supply, check that the wa-
ter intake is airtight.

To avoid any damage to the ap-
pliance, the dishwasher must only be
operated when it is connected to a
fully vented plumbing system.

The intake hose must not be
shortened or damaged in any way as
it contains electrical components
(see illustration).
