Distiwasher drain must have a 32" (81.2) loop. Drain hose may be dipped to either side of the dishwasher (see diagram A). It is preferred
- that the drain hose be routed high enough to provide the 32” loop. If a loop cannot be put in the installation, an air gap (not included)
may be used.

IMPORTANT: Routing of the drain hose is most important to insure satisfactory operation. It is not reconiniended
to extend drain line beyond T (2.1 in). However, should this be necessary, it must always be attached to a line
of larger inside diameter. An accessory drain hose extension kit (#904204) is available through your authorized
dealer. DO NOT route drain hose across the top of the tub, all bends must be gradual to prevent kinking or
collapsing of the hose.
IMPORTANT: Drain hose may change position even after installation. To insure proper operation, secure hose
to either side of cabinet wall, or to tub with hose dip (provided) to assure a 32" loop. Make certain there are
no kinks.
IMPORTANT: Do not attach the drain hose to any connection smaller than 1/2” I.D.
(Side view of dishwasher) IMPORTANT: Never cut the corrugated portion of drain hose. All connections
must be made to rubber portions of drain hose. If cutting of drain hose is required,
do not cut past the 5/8" line.
