Electrical safety
Before installation, make sure the
voltage and frequency listed on the
data plate correspond with the
household electrical supply. This data
must correspond to prevent injury and
machine damage. Consult a qualified
electrician if in doubt.
To guarantee the electrical safety
of this appliance, continuity must
exist between the appliance and an
effective grounding system.
It is imperative that this basic safety
requirement be met. If there is any
doubt, have the electrical system of the
house checked by a qualified
electrician. The manufacturer cannot be
held responsible for damages caused
by the lack, or inadequacy of, an
effective grounding system
Before installation or service,
disconnect the power supply to the
work area by manually "tripping" the
circuit breaker, unplugging the unit, or
removing the fuse.
Do not use an extension cord to
connect the unit to electricity.
Extension cords do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance, (e.g.
danger of overheating).
Child safety
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed of safely
and kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation!
If the appliance is removed from its
installation and will not be used,
the door to the wash cabinet should be
removed to prevent children from being
locked in the machine.
When discarding an old
dishwasher, unplug it from the
power outlet, remove the door to the
wash cabinet and cut off the power
cord.

1. Install the steam deflector
A stainless steel steam deflector is
supplied to protect the countertops
from steam and condesation when the
dishwasher is opened. If the countertop
is made of Corian®, granite, marble or
other solid, waterproof material, the
steam deflector is not required.
,If the counter is made of different
materials, the steam deflector
should be positioned so that it
covers the edge where the materials
are joined. Countertops with wood or
laminate edging should be tacked
through the rear holes of the steam
deflector.
^Remove the protective film from the
deflector.
^Squeeze the supplied silicone
sealant along the groove of the
deflector.
^Center the steam deflector in the
opening for the dishwasher and align
with the lower front edge of the
countertop.
^Secure the deflector in place using
the supplied nails.
^Wipe of any excess silicone with a
solution of liquid dish soap and warm
water.
The "Extended drying" feature can
be activated to further protect the
counter from condensation. See the
Operating instructions / Additional
features.
Installation
11

2. Install the mo nting
brackets
To ensure stability, this dishwasher
should be securely attached to the
countertop with the two mounting
brackets included.
^Insert the tab of each bracket into the
guide holes on the top of the
dishwasher.
Stone or marble countertops:
Do not install these mounting brackets
if the counter is made of an extremely
hard material.
The securing screws for the mounting
brackets are not suitable for such
materials.
3. Install the slide skis
Two slide skis are included and should
be installed on the feet of the
dishwasher before the machine is
pushed under the countertop. This will
allow the machine to slide easier,
protect the floor, and allow adjustment
of the rear leveling legs from the front of
the machine.
^First, adjust the height of the legs so
that the top of the dishwasher is
roughly 1/8" (3 mm) below the
countertop.
Tipping the machine slightly to the rear,
if possible, will make adjusting the front
legs easier. Make sure the machine is
level when adjustments are complete.
^Place the skis, with the ratchet at the
rear, under the dishwasher legs.
Installation
12

4. Install the dishwasher nder
the co ntertop
The dishwasher must be installed so
that the water and electricity supplies
can be accessed through an adjacent
cabinet. The supplies must not be
located behind the machine.
,WARNING - Fire hazard
Do not cover or crush the plug of an
electric appliance. Ensure that the
cabinet opening for the dishwasher
provides ample space for the plug.
Installing the dishwasher in a tight
space may crimp the power cord or
put pressure on the plug which may
cause overheating.
The floor of the cut out where the
dishwasher will be installed should be
even in height with the surrounding
kitchen floor. Plywood can be secured
to the floor to make the two areas even.
^Make a 2" x 4" (5 x 10 cm) cut out in
the side or bottom of the cabinet
adjoining the dishwasher. This cut out
is necessary for connections to pass
through.
^Make certain that there are no rough
edges that could damage the power
cord or hoses. If metal cabinets are
used, place the supplied rubber
grommet around the edge of the
opening before passing the cable
through.
^Slide the machine into the opening,
making sure the electrical cable and
hoses can reach their connection
points without kinking.
The drain hose connection at the rear of
the dishwasher can be turned to allow
the hose to be angled to the right or
left.
Exercise care when sliding the
dishwasher in or out, to prevent
damaging the power cord or hoses.
Installation
13

5. Level the legs
^The rear leveling legs can be
adjusted with a T20 Torx screwdriver
by turning the screws at the front of
the slide skis.
To raise the machine turn clockwise.
To lower the machine turn counter
clockwise.
Several turns may be needed to set the
correct height. Do not use a power
screwdriver.
^Adjust the front leveling legs by
pushing on the feet with a slotted
screwdriver.
^Tipping the machine slightly
backwards, if posssible will make
adjusting the front legs easier. Make
sure the machine is level when
adjustments are complete.
The dishwasher should be raised
until it just touches the underside of
the countertop.
If you are installing a prefinished unit
dishwasher proceed to step 9.
If you are installing a factory made
door panel (GDU Decor Set), refer to
the instruction manual enclosed with
the panel at this time.

with the drawer fronts of the adjoining
kitchen cabinets by adjusting the filler
strips.
^Using an 8 mm socket, turn the nut
clockwise or counterclockwise until
the filler strips line up with the drawer
line.
If necessary, individual or all of the filler
strips can be removed.
^To remove the filler strips from the
control panel, place the panel printed
side up, and gently push down near
the bottom of the control panel. This
