Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
dishwasher.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
Using two or more people, stand the dishwasher up.
Option 1, Countertop attachment:
IMPORTANT: The dishwasher must be secured to the
cabinet. There are two brackets on top of the dishwasher
that can be attached to the countertop if it is wood,
laminate or other similar surfaces. If your countertop is
marble, granite or other hard surface, the brackets may
be moved to the sides of the dishwasher.
NOTE: Do not attach the dishwasher. This will be done
later.
Option 2, Dishwasher side attachment:
tabs
To remove the brackets from the top, flatten tab at back
of brackets with pliers, and pull the brackets out of the
slots.
Break off the end of the bracket along the scored line.
With another person holding the rear of the dishwasher
to keep it from tipping, open dishwasher door and place
towel over pump assembly and spray arm of dishwasher.

tubing about 1" (2.5 cm).
NOTE: To avoid vibration during operation, route the
water supply line so that it does not touch the
dishwasher base, frame or motor.

fitting as far as it will go (the copper tubing bends and
kinks easily). Slide the nut and ferrule forward and start
the nut onto the elbow threads.
Flexible braided connection: Secure nut to elbow using
5/8" open ended wrench or adjustable wrench.
NOTE: Do not use Teflon ®tape with compression fittings.
Hold the 90° elbow fitting still with one adjustable wrench
and tighten the nut with second adjustable wrench.
Helpful Tip: For easier access, use a 5/8" open ended
wrench to tighten connection.
Place paper towel under 90° elbow fitting. Turn on water
supply and check for leaks. If leak occurs, repeat
previous step.
