installation or service.
ENCLOSURE PREPARATmON
NOTE: This dishwasher is designed to be enclosed on the
top and both sides by standard residential kitchen
cabinetry.
Select a location as close to the sink as possible for
easy access to water supply and drain lines.
For proper dishwasher operation and appearance, ensure
that the enclosure is square and has the dimensions
shown in Figure !.
If the dishwasher is to be installed ina corner, make sure
that there is adequate clearance to open the door. See
Figure 2,
ElectricaJ Shock/Fire Hazard
To avoid ebctric shock or fire, do not allow the
eJectricaJ and water supply Jines to touch.
Separate channets are provided under the
dishwasher (see page 10}.
if the enclosure requires openings for the electrical supply
cable, hot water supply line, and dishwasher drain hose,
place them within the dimensions shown by the shaded
area of Figure 3 to avoid interference with the dishwasher
frame or other components, Make the openings for the
electrical supply cable and hot water supply line 1"
(25,4mm) diameter, Make the opening for the dishwasher
drain hose 1-1/4" (82mm) diameter, if the openings are
made through wood, sand them smooth, if the openings
are made through metal, make them large enough to
accommodate grommets or other protective sheaths with
inside diameters of 1" (25,4mm) for the electrical supply
cable and the hot water supply line, and 1-1/4" (32mm) for
the dishwasher drain hose,

ElectricaJ SuppJy
The customer has the responsibility of ensuring that the
dishwasher electrical installation is in compliance with all
national and local electrical codes and ordinances. The
dishwasher is designed for an electrical supply of 120V,
60 Hz, AC, connected to a dishwasher-dedicated,
properly grounded electrical circuit with a fuse or breaker
rated for 15 amps. Electrical supply conductors shall be a
minimum #14 AWG copper wire rated at 75°C or higher.
Regardless of where the electrical supply cable enters the
enclosure, position the cable 21" (533mm) from the
enclosure's left side, as shown in Figure 4. Extend the
cable 30" (762mm) from the enclosure's back, as shown
in Figure 4,
Remove 3" =4" (76mm =102mm) of the cable's outer
casing, as shown in Figure 5, then remove 3/8" - 1/2"
(10 - 13mm) of insulation from each wire, as shown in
Figure 5,

Plumbing Preparation
PLUMBING PREPARATmON
ScaJd Hazard
To avoid being ecaJded, do not perform any work
on a charged hot water line. Serious injury couJd
reeuJt. Only quaJified plumbers ehouJd perform
ptumbing work. Do not attempt any work on the
dishwasher hot water supply pJumbing until you
are certain the hot water euppJy is shut off.
Temperatures required for soldering and sweating
will damage the dishwasher's base and water intet
valve. If plumbing lines are to be soldered or
sweated, keep the heat source at least 5 inches
(152.4 ram) away from the dishwasher's base and
water inJet vaJve.
Hot Water SuppJy
The hot water heater should be set to deliver
approximately 120 ° F (49° C) water to the dishwasher,
Water that is too hot can cause some detergents to lose
effectiveness, Lower water temperatures will increase run
times, The hot water supply pressure must be between
15 - 145 psi (1 - 10 bar),
Hot Water SuppJy PJumbing
Install an easily accessible shut-off valve (not supplied) in
the hot water supply line, as shown in Figure 5, All solder
connections must be made before the water line is
connected to the dishwasher's water inlet valve, Water
may abe be supplied to the dishwasher by using a
stainless steel braided hose approved for dishwasher use,
Check with your local plumbing supply sources for the
proper hose and 90° elbow fitting,
NOTE: Regardless of where the hot water supply line
enters the enclosure, position the line 14" (356mm) from
the enclosure's left side, as shown in Figure 6,
NOTE: Decide whether stainless steel braided hose
approved for dishwasher use or copper tubing will be used
for the hot water supply plumbing, and purchase the
correct type of hot water supply shut-off valve, 90° elbow,
and necessary fittings for the hot water supply plumbing,

instructions,
Disposer
Make sure to remove the disposer's dishwasher drain

DISHWASHER PREPARATmON
Dishwasher preparation involves four tasks:
• Installing the Mounting Brackets
Removing the Toe Panel
Installing the 90° elbow fitting
Junction Box Preparation
Installing the Countertop Mounting Brackets
Before installing the supplied countertop mounting
brackets, decide which method of securing the
dishwasher into its enclosure wilt be used. Once
the mounting brackets are installed on the dish-
washer, removing them is difficult and will damage
the mounting brackets and the dishwasher.
The dishwasher can be secured into its enclosure in two
ways:
1 Top Mount is used for countertops made of wood or
other materials that can easily drilled, Orient the
mounting brackets as shown in Figure 10, and
position the two small tabs on the mounting brackets
over the two slots on the dishwasher's front corners,
Push the mounting brackets down firmly to insert the
tabs into the slots,
2 Side Mount is used for countertops made of marble,
granite, or other very hard materials that cannot be
easily drilled, Bend the mounting brackets along the
small hobs and in the same direction as the two small
tabs, Orient the mounting brackets as shown in Figure
11, and position the two small tabs on the mounting
brackets over the two slots on the dishwasher's front
corners, Push the mounting brackets down firmly to
insert the tabs into the slots,
Tip Over Hazard
To avoid a tip over hazard, do not use the
dishwasher until it is completeJy installed. When
opening the door on an uninstaHed dishwasher,
carefully open the door while supporting the rear
of the unit. Failure to follow this warning can
result in serious injury.

The plastic base access panel and toe panel are in place
on the dishwasher, but are not attached, Remove the toe
panel first, as shown in Figure 12, then remove the
plastic base access panel, as shown in Figure 12,
Do not overtighten the 90° elbow. Doing so may
damage the water intet vaJve and cause a water
teak.
installing the 90 ° Elbow Fitting
NOTE: The 90° elbow fitting is not supplied with the
dishwasher, and must be purchased separately, If the
dishwasher's hot water supply line is to be copper tubing,
make certain the elbow has a compression fitting,
ApplyTefion tape or other pipe sealant when required,
Orient the hot water supply connection leg of the elbow
toward the channel opening in the dishwasher base, See
Figure 13,
Junction Box Preparation
1 Remove junction box cover (see Figure 14) by lifting
the junction box cover up and off,
2 Remove the strain relief plate by removing the screw
at the back of the junction box, as shown in Figure
15 and sliding the strain relief plate out,
3 Set the junction box cover, strain relief plate, and
screw aside, They will be re°installed later,

1 Straighten and position the hot water supply line and
the electrical supply cable as shown in Figure 19 so
that they wiii align with their channels under the
dishwasher base.
2 Position the dishwasherclose enough to the enclosure
so that you can run the dishwasher drain hose to the
under sink drain connection. Make certain that the hot
water supply line and the electrical supply cable are in
their channels under the dishwasher base, as shown in
Figure 20,
3 Slide the dishwsher into the opening making sure that
the hot water supply line and the electrical supply
cable stay in their proper channels.
4 Make sure the dishwasher is level. Adjust the rear
leveler by turning the center screw at the front of the
dishwasher, as shown in Figure 21a. Turning the screw
clockwise raises the rear of the dishwasher. Adjust the
front levelers by turning them with a screwdriver, as
shown in Figure 21b. Turning the levelers to the right
raises the dishwasher, if additional height is needed,
shims may be added under the leveler feet.
