14 INSTALLATION Preparing Electrical Wiring 1 Operate this appliance with the correct voltage as shown in this manual and on the rating plate. Connect it to a dedicated, properly grounded branch circuit which is protected by a time delay fuse. Connect the appliance using 3-wires, including a ground wire. 2 If an outlet and other power connector are used, it should be in an accessible location adjacent to and not behind the dishwasher and within 4 ft (1.2 m) of the dishwasher's side. 3 The wiring must be grounded properly. If in doubt, have it checked by a qualified electrician. Do not connect any other appliance to the same outlet. 4 Route the wiring. Preparing Water Supply Connection Make sure the house water supply is turned off before connecting the dishwasher water lines. 1 Connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply with a temperature range between 120 °F (49 °C) and 149 °F (65 °C). This temperature range provides the best washing results and shortest cycle time. To prevent damage to dishes, the temperature should not exceed 149 °F (65 °C). 2 When connecting the dishwasher water line, sealing tape or compound should be used on pipe threads to avoid leaks. Tape or compound should not be used on compression fittings. 3 The water supply tube must be located in the left side channel. 6 1/2" - 7 3/4" (165 mm - 197 mm) Water supply line Electrical cable 41/2" - 6" (115 mm - 152 mm) 5 Make sure the electrical cable is oriented in the right side channel.
