supply should not exceed 160

NOTE: Hard Water conditions will adversely affect wash ability 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 (empty) using 1 cup of
white vinegar (at least once a week).
Disconnecting your Dishwasher
- Close the hot water supply at the stopcock.
- Disconnect the power supply cord.
- 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.
