Water Pressure
For best operating results, incoming water pressure should be between 0.5 and 10 bar. Incoming water supply
for the dishwasher is controlled by a 'pressure switch' application, so if household water pressure is low,
dishwasher fill time will be longer.
FOR BEST RESULTS:
Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot clean water and detergent (under pressure) against the
soiled surface of dishes. The water is pumped through a rotating spray arm, drained through a filter removing
food and soiled particles and pumped back through the spray arm.
Soiled water is pumped out and replaced with clean water at the end of each cycle. (the number of times
o o depends on the cycle being used) For best cleaning results, the water temperature must be at least 130 F (55 C).
o o To prevent dishwasher damage, the temperature of the incoming water supply should not exceed 160 F (71 C).
NOTE: Hard Water conditions will adversely affect the washability performance of your dishwasher. Hard Water
conditions will also contribute to "Lime" (white film substance) deposits and/or scaling? On the stainless steel
surface of the dishwasher tub and "Heater Element" located in the sump underneath the removable filter
screen. To assist in minimizing these conditions, it is recommended to periodically operate/rinse the inside of the
dishwasher (while empty) using 1 cup of white vinegar (at least once a week).
Disconnecting your Dishwasher
Disconnect the power supply cord.
Close the hot water supply at the stopcock.
Disconnect the inlet hose assembly from the water supply. When the dishwasher is not in use, place/store
the hose on the hanger hose bracket located on the rear wall of the dishwasher cabinet.
Appliances that are to be discarded must be made unusable. Pull off the plug, remove cable and make the
door lock and latch unusable
! IMPORTANT !
Once you open the water supply line, (even if it is closed immediately thereafter) the water inlet hose will be
pressurized.
! CAUTION !
DO NOT LET CHILDREN DISCONNECT THE DISHWASHER. Close supervision of children is always
important around appliances.
