Maytag MDB6000AWA Installation - Manual (Page 5)

Connect water supply line to water valve. Minimum 3/8" O.D. copper tubing or equivalent.
SHUTOFF VALVE: Install a hand shutoff valve in the water supply line in an accessible location, such as under the sink. The shutoff is optional,
but recommended and may be required by local codes. Connections are preferable located toward the left side of dishwasher. Care should be taken
to route plumbing away from motor and blower (if equipped). DO NOT make these connections until the dishwasher is in position.
Care should be taken to protect dishwasher and water lines leading to dishwasher from freezing. Damage from freezing is not covered by the
warranty.
