■The above specifications are for reference only. For exact
specifications see the product data label, located inside the right door
■Do not modify the power cord or use an extension cord. The power
cord may be disconnected from the appliance and hard-wired to a
junction box connected to a circuit meeting the above specifications if
the power cord is not long enough.
Water Supply Specifications
■Water Pressure: 4.2 to 125 p.s.i. (30-862 kPa) with minimum water
flow of 3 gallons (12 liters) per minute.
■Water Supply Temperature: Cold or hot water supply (max. 140°F,
60°C) may be used. Dacor recommends a hot water supply of 120°F
(49°C) to 140°F (60°C). If a cold water supply is used, washing times
will be longer but performance will not be affected.
■Water Supply Valve Requirement: 3/8” water supply valve for
connection to dishwasher’s water supply line is required in a location
where it is easily accessible after the dishwasher is installed. The
dishwasher water supply line is equipped with a 3/8” (1.0 cm) NPT
female compression fitting on the end.
Location Specifications
■Install in a location with convenient access, close to the kitchen sink
for easy water supply and drain connection. All minimum product
dimensions must be met or exceeded. Dimensions shown on this
page provide the required clearances.
■The cabinet must enclose the dishwasher on top, back and sides.
■Plan the installation so that the appliance can be removed easily if
service is required. The electrical outlet/junction box, water supply
valve and drain connection must be installed to the right or left of the
cutout and accessible when dishwasher is installed.
■If dishwasher is installed in a corner, there must be a minimum
clearance of 2” (5.1 cm) from the side wall so the door can open. See
diagram.

Model (F) Cutout Height
EDWH24S 34 1/2” (87.6 cm) to 36 1/2” (92.7 cm)**
IDWH24* 34 1/8” (86.7 cm) to 36 1/8” (91.8 cm)**
*Model IDWH24 requires installation of a trim kit (Dacor PN 106925) to fill
the space between the edge of the cutout and the dishwasher.
** If the height of the existing cutout is too low:
■Check to see if the cabinet face can be trimmed at the top. In many
cases, when a non-standard size dishwasher has been installed
previously, there is enough room inside the cabinet once the cabinet
face is modified.
■The dishwasher can be shortened 1/4” (6.0 mm) by not installing the
plastic feet provided with the unit. Extra care must be taken if the feet
are not installed. Dacor is not responsible for floor damage during
installation.
■The dishwasher can be shortened 1/4” (6.0 mm) by removing the trim
pieces that surround the wash compartment opening. NOTE: Doing
so will create a gap of 1/4” (6.0 mm) on the right and left side of the
door.
■Floor must be solid and level. All cutout surfaces must be at right
angles. Surrounding cabinet must have sufficient material for
attachment of the anti-tip brackets (see installation instructions).
■The opening (E) through the partition between the drain connection
and the dishwasher cutout must be higher than the disposer or
waste tee connection (see page 3/3) and lower than 30” (76 cm). If
the partition is wood, the edges of the opening shall be smooth and
rounded. If the partition is metal, the edges of the opening shall be
covered with an edge protector.
