DRAIN REQUIREMENTS
• Follow local codes and ordinances.
• Do not exceed 15’ distance to drain.
NOTE : Air gap must be used, if waste tee or disposer
connection is less than 18” above floor to prevent
siphoning.
'(7(50,1('5$,10(7+2'
The type of drain installation depends on the following
questions.
• Do local codes or ordinances require an air gap?
• Is waste tee less than 18” above floor?
If the answer to either question is YES, Method 1
MUST be used.
•If the answers are NO, either method may be used.
CABINET PREPARATION
• Drill a 1-1/2” diameter hole in the cabinet wall within
the shaded areas shown in Figure A for the drain hose
connection. The hole should be smooth with no sharp
edges.
IMPORTANT – When connecting
drain line to disposer, check to be
sure that drain plug has been
removed. DISHWASHER WILL NOT DRAIN IF PLUG IS LEFT IN
PLACE.

An air gap must be used when required by local codes and
ordinances. The air gap must be installed according to
manufacturer’s instructions.

Installation Preparation
For models equipped with power cord: Do not modify the
plug provided with the appliance; if it will not fit the outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a qualified technician.
Cabinet Preparation & Wire Routing
•The wiring may enter the opening from either side, rear or
the floor within the shaded area illustrated above in Figure
E and defined in Figure A.
• Cut a 1-1/2" maximum diameter hole to admit the
electrical cable. Edges of hole should be smooth and
rounded. Permanent wiring connections may pass
through the same hole as the drain hose and hot water
line, if convenient. If cabinet wall is metal, the hole edge
must be covered with a bushing.
NOTE: Power cords with plug must pass through a
separate hole.
Electrical Connection to Dishwasher
Electrical connection is on the right front of dishwasher.
• For permanent connections the cable must be routed as
shown in Figure E. Cable must extend a minimum of 24"
from the rear wall.
• For power cord connections, install a 3-prong grounding
type receptacle in the sink cabinet rear wall, 6" min. or 18"
maximum from the opening, 6" to 18" above the floor.
• Use the Power Cord Kit for your dishwasher model.
PREPARE ELECTRICAL WIRING
Electrical Requirements
• This appliance must be supplied with 120V, 60 Hz., and
connected to an individual properly grounded branch
circuit, protected by a 15- or 20-ampere circuit breaker
or time-delay fuse.
• Wiring must be 2 wire with ground and rated for 75°C
(167°F).
• If the electrical supply does not meet the above
requirements, call a licensed electrician before
proceeding.
Grounding Instructions–Permanent Connection
This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and be
connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on
the appliance.
Grounding Instructions–Power Cord Models
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk
of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance
for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a
cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and
a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
