PLUMBING PREPARATION
WARNING: SCALD HAZARD -
Serious injury could result if work is
performed on a charged hot water
line. Only qualified plumbers should
perform plumbing work. Do not
attempt any work on the dishwasher
hot water supply plumbing until you
are certain the hot water supply is
shut off.
CAUTION: Temperatures required for
soldering and sweating will damage
the dishwasher’s base and water inlet
valve. If plumbing lines are to be
soldered or sweated, keep the heat
source at least 6 inches (152.4 mm)
away from the dishwasher’s base and
water inlet valve.
Hot Water Supply
Bosh recommends that the hot water
heater be set to deliver approximately
120° F (49° C) water to the dish-
washer. Water that is too hot can
cause some detergents to loose
effectiveness. Lower water tempera-
tures will increase run times.
The hot water supply pressure must
be between 5 - 120 psi (0.3 - 8.27
bars).
Hot Water Supply Plumbing
NOTE: Regardless of where the hot
water supply line enters the enclosure
(following the guidelines on page 8),
position the line 14” (355mm) from the
enclosure’s left side, as shown in
Figure 7, letter A.
NOTE: Decide whether braided hose
or copper tubing will be used for the
hot water supply plumbing, and
purchase the correct type of hot water
supply shut-off valve, 90° elbow, and
necessary fittings for the hot water
supply plumbing.
Install an easily accessible shut-off valve
(not supplied) in the hot water supply
line, as shown in Figure 7, letter B.
All solder connections must be made
before the water line is connected to
the dishwasher’s water inlet valve.
Water may also be supplied to the
dishwasher by using a braided hose
line. Check with your local plumbing
supply sources for the proper hose
and 90° elbow fitting.
