SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Instructions pertaining to a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
Electrical Instructions:
An electrical supply of 120 volts AC only, 60Hz is required. Make sure that a suitable
electrical supply socket is located close to where the dishwasher is to be placed.
For your
safety, the appliance must be grounded.
_The appliance is equipped with a power
supply cord with a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazards it must be
plugged into a matching 3-prong grounded electrical outlet.
WARNING
Installation involves water line connections. Please consult a plumber for proper installation.
Installation Instructions
1.
Remove all packing materials carefully
2.
The water inlet hose from the machine terminates in a %" female connector. The water
supply should therefore terminate in a similar male connector and should have a
on/off valve close by in the pipe. Connect the straight connector of the inlet hose to the
water supply securely. Connect the other end (bent connector) to the water inlet valve at
the back of the dishwasher cabinet. Do not over-tighten to avoid damage to the threads.
3.
Prepare the drainage hose so that it has "hooked" or U-shaped end. Use the plastic U-bend
provided for this purpose. The end of this should be dropped into a drainage standpipe,
the maximum height of which should be no more than 6" above the base of the
dishwasher. To allow for an air gap around the end of the drain hose, the diameter of the
standpipe should be at least 1". Connect the other end of the drain hose (L shaped)
to the drain port connection at the back of the dishwasher cabinet. Tighten the drain hose
end on to the drain port using the metal clip included in the package.
4.
Thus dishwasher also ships with a "quick-connect adaptor for a kitchen sink tap (which will also
drain to the sink). Replace your sink aerator with the included aerator and you may pop the
connector on and off at will. If you are unsure of proper installation, please consult a plumber.
5.
If leaks are located, immediately shut the water supply and check the hose connections
fully. Tighten connections if necessary.
6.
If for any reason you are unable to stop the leak yourself please seek advice from a
qualified plumber.
7.
The minimum height clearance required to install your dishwasher on a countertop
surface with overhead cupboards is
18" (46cm).
8.
Make sure there is an electrical power supply within easy reach of the machine. The
power cord is 6' long.
9.
The dishwasher must be installed on a 'solid' level surface.
10. To level the dishwasher, adjust the 4 level screws (feet) under the dishwasher.
Water Pressure
For best operating results, incoming water pressure should be between 0.5-10 bar.
Incoming water supply for the dishwasher is controlled by a 'low water switch' application, so
if the water connection no longer provides water, the dishwasher will stop»
