maximum length of 12 ft (8.7 m) (Part Number 3385556) that
meets all current AHAM/IAPMO test standards, is resistant to
heat and detergent, and fits the 1" (2.5 cm) drain connector of
the dishwasher.
m Make sure to connect drain hose to waste tee or disposer inlet
above drain trap in house plumbing and 20" (50.8 cm)
minimum above the floor. It is recommended that the drain
hose either be looped up and securely fastened to the
underside of the counter, or be connected to an air gap.
m Make sure to use an air gap if the drain hose is connected to
house plumbing lower than 20” (50.8 cm) above subfloor or
floor.
Use 1%" minimum I.D. drain line fittings.
If required, the air gap should be installed in accordance with
the air gap installation instructions. When you are connecting
the air gap, a rubber hose (not provided) will be needed to
connect to the waste tee or disposer inlet.

Attach water supply line
Attach the water supply line (copper tubing or flexible braided line)
to the hot water line using a connection configuration that is in
compliance with local codes and ordinances. The water supply to
the dishwasher should have a manual shutoff valve located under
the sink.
4 | Route water supply line
Slowly route water supply line through hole in cabinet. (If you are
using copper tubing, it will bend and kink easily, so be gentle.) It
should be far enough into the cabinet opening to connect it to the
dishwasher inlet on the front left side of the dishwasher.
5 | Flush water supply line
Slowly turn water shutoff valve to “ON” position. Flush water into
a shallow pan until clear to get rid of particles that could clog the
inlet valve. Turn shutoff valve to “OFF” position.

clearance. This will allow the dishwasher to fit into a 33%" (86 cm)
high cabinet opening, but the dishwasher will be more difficult to
move. (Measurements are approximate. Wheels and legs are
preset at the factory for 34%" [87.6 cm].) If the minimum cabinet
opening height is 33%" (85.7 cm), a section in the insulation
blanket can be removed by cutting along the perforation.

Built-up floors: If the kitchen floor is higher than the cabinet
opening's floor - for example, the kitchen floor tile does not
extend into the cabinet opening - add shims as needed in the area
shown to bring the dishwasher up to 34" (86.4 cm) below the
countertop.
NOTE: Shims must be securely attached to floor to avoid
movement when the dishwasher is in use.
