Part 1 - Initial Hook-Up:
Remove hoses from dishwasher interior (should include drain and fill hose (washers), coupler, and adapter).
Install the hoses on the bottom back area of the dishwasher
Remove tap adapter from hose coupler by pressing down on the top of coupler
Remove tape from tap adapter and install the thin washer from the plastic bag that also contains the hose hook for the back of the dishwasher. The 2 thick washers that are taped in the tap adapter may be too thick to allow a secure fit of the tap adapter to the household tap.
Remove gray plastic holder assembly from the bag.
Align the bottom of the clip with the cut out on the top-back area of the dishwasher
Make sure top area and bottom area are properly aligned with the locking cut out areas. When they are aligned push down on the clip, making sure it is locked into place (make sure the assembly is pushed down far enough to lock it into place).
NOTE:
Make sure the washer seals are in the hoses before installation.
Make sure hoses are tight enough to stop any leaking.
The bag that holds the small thin washer and the hose holding assembly onto the back of the unit is separate from the bag the hoses are in.
When finished using the dishwasher push the small red button on the hose coupler assembly before removing the hose from the household tap (relieves water pressure from hoses) so there is less chance of water spraying out.
Part 2 - Completion of Cycle:
Turn water off at the main tap at the sink.
Push the red button on the coupler assembly, this allows the water pressure to be released from the hoses before you remove the coupler from the tap.
Remove coupler by pushing down on the locking collar that is around the tap adapter.
When the coupler is off of the tap, turn the coupler upside down to try and remove any water that is located in the coupler.
When the excess water has been removed, carefully hook the 2 hoses into the rear hose hook that is firmly attached to the back of the dishwasher.
NOTE:
There will be water in the hoses so be careful not to allow the hoses to fall to the floor as the trapped water will leak onto the floor and could cause a slipping hazard. Gravity will cause the water to leak if the hoses are on the floor.
If the hoses stay firmly in the rear hook and the hoses do not go lower than the height of the interior tub, the water should not leak out onto the floor.

My tap leaks every time I put the cupler on my adapter. I have everything done like you did as far as I can tell.
We're sorry to hear about the leaking issue. Please send us an email at consumerservice@danby.com, and we'll assist you in resolving this problem. Thank you for watching our video!
You need to put a scan code in the manual to this video.
What if none of my faucets seems to be compatible? As in no way to thread the attachment - Is there a work around or must I replace a faucet?
Hi Denise, Thank you for your comment and for watching our installation video! I understand how frustrating it can be when fittings don’t seem to match. Don't worry; this unit comes with a faucet adapter, which generally allows for compatibility with various faucet styles. If you're still having trouble, please check if any other accessories are needed for your specific faucet type. If you need further assistance, feel free to reach out to our consumer service department at consumerservice@danby.com. We will be happy to assist you. Regards, Danby Support Team
Ok, what do you do with the extra hose ? There hose droops down onto the floor.
There is no extra. One hose fills the dishwasher and the other pumps the water out.
These things are a pain in the you know what? When something goes wrong good luck finding out how to fix it. I've had mine less than 12 months. It's used about once a week and it is done

Can I hard plumb this dishwasher?
Hi Richard, Thank you for your comment! I'm afraid that this is a portable unit, and it is designed to work with the quick connect hose assembly that comes with the unit. We do not recommend hard-plumbing the water inlet or drain, as it can affect the performance of the unit and lead to future issues. It's best to use the recommended water connection hose for optimal results. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please reach out to our consumer service department at consumerservice@danby.com. We’re always here to help. - Earl
okay but how do I do this with a pull out faucet nobody is giving me instructions
Hello, we're happy to assist you with your questions and concerns. Please send an email to consumerservice@danby.com and make sure to include the model number in the subject line.
Henry did you figure it out!?
It's so confusing but faucet makers like Delta specifically say in their website not to use a portable dishwasher on a pull out faucet. Apparently there's a risk of the hose rupturing due to the fluctuation of water pressure. I'm sure this depends on your exact faucet but I know I've been completely confused and I've gone ahead and gotten a new faucet. There are some new ones with pull-down sprayers that have a secondary spigot, sometimes called a pot filler, but really it's just a metal faucet neck with an aerator. You can connect the portable dishwasher to that and still have the sprayer separate and actually still be able use the sprayer while you use the dishwasher. Amazon has some nice ones in the $60 to $70. It's so confusing and because my Moen pull out fits the adapter just fine and it's works fine with no leaks, but I just can't risk it rupturing and causing water damage before I'm able to shut the water off. It seemed safer, though a pain, to just replace the faucet.
You need a regular faucet
Better off with a dishwasher that doesn't require hookup like Airmsen
