Drain Requirements
• Use the new drain hose supplied with your dishwasher.
If this is not long enough, use a new drain hose with a
maximum length of 12 feet (3.7 m) that meets all
current AHAM/IAPMO test standards, is resistant to
heat and detergent, and fits the 1" (2.5 cm) drain
connector of the dishwasher.
• Connect drain hose to waste tee or disposer inlet
above drain trap in house plumbing and 20" (50.8 cm)
minimum above the floor. It is recommended that the
drain hose either be looped up and securely fastened
to the underside of the counter, or be connected to an
air gap.
• Use an air gap if the drain hose is connected to house
plumbing lower than 20" (50.8 cm) above subfloor or
floor.
• Use 1/2" minimum I.D. drain line fittings.
Water Supply Requirements
• A hot water line with 20-120 psi (138-862 kPa) water
pressure.
• 120°F (49°C) water at dishwasher.
• 3/8" O.D. copper tubing with compression fitting or
flexible stainless steel braided fill line (1/2" minimum
plastic tubing is not recommended).
• A 90° elbow with 3/8" N.P.T. external pipe threads on
one end.
Do not solder within 6" (15.2 cm) from water inlet valve.
Electrical Requirements
Contact a qualified electrician.
Assure that the electrical installation is adequate and in
conformance with all national and local codes and
ordinances.
You must have:
• 120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, 15 or 20 amp., fused electrical
supply.
• Copper wire only.
We recommend:
• A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.

If direct wiring dishwasher:
• Use flexible, armored or non-metallic sheathed, copper
wire with grounding wire that meets the wiring
requirements for your home and local codes and
ordinances.
• Use strain relief method provided with house wiring
junction box or install a U.L.-listed/CSA-certified clamp
connector to the house wiring junction box. If using
conduit, use a U.L.-listed/CSA-certified conduit connector.
If connecting dishwasher with a power supply cord:
• Use Power Supply Cord Kit (Part No. 4317824) marked for
use with dishwashers. Kit contents include:
– Volex, Inc., UL listed 16 gauge 3 wire power supply
cord with 3 prong grounded plug.
– Neer C-500 7/8 inch strain relief.
