Plumbing Connections

WATER CONNECTION
NOTE: Hot water maximizes steam production but is not
required. Cold water may be supplied to both
inlets if hot water is not available.
Connect the appliance to quality water via a pressure
hose with 3/4" GHT (19mm) couplings. See below for
connections. A shut off valve is to be provided adjacent
to the oven.
WARNING!!
Operating the appliance without the water reg-
ulator installed will invalidate your warranty.
This product must be installed by a licensed Plumber or
Gas Fitter when installed within the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts.
DRAIN CONNECTION
The drain should be run to an open floor drain avoiding
flexible hose that could sag and allow trapped water to
accumulate. The customer must supply the piping from
the oven to the drain.
NOTE: The drain piping must consist of temperature
resistant material, greater than 160°F, and be
of adequate diameter not to cause flow restric-
tion. Improper materials may deform and cause
restrictions, thus affecting performance.

WARNING!!
Connection must be carried out by a licensed
plumber, to an open or closed drain. The drain
must never end directly beneath the equip-
ment. The drain should not be located on the
same side the equipment controls are located.
