Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Hi, as asked i'm posting a pic of the faucet and hooses....

the faucet is a model much used here in brazil in the laundry sink to use with the washer, but i put this faucet in the kitchen sink to be able to use with the dishwasher! here in brazil the dishwashers fill with cold wather (as central hot water isn't commun here) and heats by itself.
in my case it drains in the sink.
 
Congratulations on your new dishwasher and thank you for sharing the photos. It is very smart looking, almost like a television, but I think having that wash arm hanging down over the top rack reduces capacity. I know what they are trying to accomplish in limited space. With the top sprayer, as I learned from my Maytag, bowl-shaped items can be very effectively washed when loaded facing inward on the perimeter of the top rack. Unfortunately, the rack configuration makes that same space the only place for drinking glasses unless those upside down V-shaped dividers are removable. If plates are loaded in the center of the lower rack, they would not block the spray to items above them, but that area in the top rack lacks usable capacity for tall items. Still, it is an amazing accomplishment and no machine is perfect. What does not fit into one load gives more toward the next load. Best of all, any dishwasher is better than no dishwasher.

I guess that the water heating element is hidden below the screen in the sump. Does it fill with hot or cold water? Does the water heating take a long time?

I hope you have lot of fun with your new dishwasher. Tom
 
Hi Tom, thanks for your coment....
yeah, i agree with you, the fact that it have only a wash arm under the lower rack, if i put glasses in the center area of the upper rack they come out bad washed, so i use this area to put things faced to the top arm...
about the heating element, yes, it's hidden below the screen. This dishwasher, as all dishwashers here in Brazil is made to be filled with cold water, and thanks to it's high potence (or power, don't know exately what word to use, hehe) of 1700 watts it takes no more than 10 or 15 min to heat the water. The faster program takes 55 min (not considering the drying time, that the machine stay only with the drying light on, but not use the heater or any kind of fun, the dishs dry only with the residual hotness of the last hot rinse with rinse aid at 60ºC (140ºF)). it washes for 30 min, 2 middle rinses of about 5 min each and the last hot rinse for about 15 min, pluz about 25 min of drying time. the normal cicle is the same, but with a pre wash of about 10 min and the pots and pans have a 15 min pre wash and 3 middle rinses instead of 2.
