After connecting the hose to the barb fitting, and depending on how the hose is run, you may need to
secure the hose onto the fitting with a tie-wrap or hose clamp (not included). Additionally, make sure that the
nut securing the fitting to the machine, behind the area where the drip tray slides in, is tightened and the other
end of the drain hose cannot be dislodged out of the drain location.
CAUTION: If either end of the hose is not properly connected or comes loose, the waste water from
the drip tray may cause property damage. Such damage is not covered by the warranty.
Whichever method you choose, no portion of the hose anywhere
along its length can be higher than the drip tray. Waste water cannot
run uphill, and if the hose is too high it will cause the drip tray to
overflow.
CAUTION: If the water level in the drip tray reaches the punched
hole in the back of the drip tray, water will leak under the drip
tray, into the machine, and onto the counter. Water damage is
not covered by the warranty.
Whichever option you choose, always verify that the drip tray is
fully inserted into the machine. This will help ensure that all waste
water is captured in the drip tray.
Whether plumbed or not, the drip tray should be removed weekly
for cleaning. Wash with a sponge and warm, soapy waster, rinse and
towel dry to avoid water stains. Wipe up any spills in the frame of the
machine before replacing the tray.
