STEP 4. CONNECTING ELECTRICITY, WATER, AND DRAIN 2. CONNECT WATER SUPPLY HOSE WARNING! Plumbing connections must comply with applicable sanitary, safety and plumbing codes in your area. The machine can be connected to either a hot (max. 160 °F, 70 °C) or cold water supply. We recommend a cold water supply. The water pressure should be 4.2-140 psi. Connect to cold water... If you use oil or electricity to heat your home. Connect to hot water (max 160 °F, 70 °C)... If you use district heating, solar power, or geothermal power to heat your home. Choosing a hot water connection cuts program times and reduces the dishwasher's electricity consumption. For service convenience, a shut-off valve (not supplied) should be installed in the supply line in an easily accessible location, such as, beneath the sink. In order to prevent heat damage to the inlet valve, all solder connections must be made before the water supply line is connected. Flush the water supply line prior to connecting it to the water fill tube. The unit has a float switch in the base pan to protect against flooding. If the inlet valve connection is not seated properly, water may leak into the base pan and activate the float switch. Water connection should be carried out by a qualified professional. It is important that the water supply line and the shut-off valve have a sufficient flow volume. At least 3 gallons (12 liters) per minute must be able to pass through the line. Connect the machine using the accompanying supply hose. Water pressure should be 4.2-140 PSI. There should be a shut off valve on the water pipe. Use the supplied O ring and tighten the connection by hand plus a quarter turn with a wrench. If the pipes are newly installed, it may be wise to flush them so that any debris is washed away. Otherwise, debris can clog the filter in the machine's water intake and cut off the water supply. Only use the inlet hose supplied with the machine. Do not reuse old or other loose inlet hoses.
