Shelter dishwasher and water lines leading to dishwasher against freezing. Damage from freezing is not covered by the warranty.

This dishwasher is manufactured for indoor use only.

Do not run drain lines, water lines or electrical wiring where they can interfere with or contact the dishwasher motor or legs.

The location where the dishwasher will be installed must provide clearance between motor and flooring. Motor should not touch the floor.

Do not install dishwasher over carpeted flooring.

Minimum Clearances

Check location where the dishwasher will be installed. the location must provide:

Easy access to water, electricity and drain.

Convenient access for loading and unloading dishes. Corner locations require 2" (5.1 cm) minimum clearance between the side of the dishwasher door and the wall or cabinet.

Electrical Requirements

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher 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. The dishwasher 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.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the dishwasher is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the dishwasher; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

For a permanently connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipmentgrounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipmentgrounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Contact a qualified electrician.

Ensure that the electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with all national and local codes and ordinances.

Requirements:

120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, 15or 20-amp fused electrical supply

Copper wire only, 2 wire with ground

Recommended:

Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker

Separate circuit

Direct Wire Connection

Use flexible, armored or nonmetalic sheathed, copper wire with grounding wire that meets the wiring requirements for your home and local codes and ordinances.

Use strain relief method provided with house wiring junction box or install a UL-listed/CSA-certified clamp connector to the house wiring junction box. If using conduit, use a UL-listed/CSA-certified conduit connector.

Power Supply Cord Connection

Use Power Supply Cord Kit (Part Number 4317824) marked for use with dishwashers. Kit contents include:

Voltex, Inc., UL listed 16 gauge 3-wire power supply cord with 3 prong grounding plug

Neer C-500 ⁄" strain relief

3 wire connectors

Part No. 302797 grommet

Follow the kit instructions for installing the power supply cord.

NOTE: Power supply cord must plug into a mating three prong, grounded outlet, located in the cabinet next to the dishwasher opening. Outlet must meet all local codes and ordinances.

IMPORTANT: If you plan to install a garbage disposal, an additional separate 120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, 15or 20-amp fused electrical supply is required.

Water Supply Requirements

A hot water line with 20-120 psi (138-862 kPa) water pressure.

120°F (49°C) water temperature at dishwasher.

³⁄" O.D. copper tubing with compression fitting or flexible braided water supply line.

NOTE: ½" minimum plastic tubing is not recommended.

90º elbow with ³⁄" N.P.T. external pipe threads on one end.

IMPORTANT: Do not solder within 6" (15.2 cm) from water inlet valve.

Drain Requirements

Use the new drain hose supplied with your dishwasher. NOTE: If a longer drain hose is required:

Use a new drain hose with maximum length of 10 ft (3 m) that meets all current AHAM/IAPMO test standards

Use a new drain hose that is resistant to heat and detergent

Use a new drain hose that fits the 1" (2.5 cm) drain connector on the dishwasher.

Connect drain hose to waste tee or disposal inlet above drain trap in house plumbing.

Connect drain hose to house plumbing 20" (50.8 cm) minimum above the floor.

NOTE: 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.

Use a drain air gap if the drain hose is connected to house plumbing lower than 18" (45.7 cm) above the subfloor or floor.

Drain Air Gap

Use ½" (1.3 cm) minimum I.D. drain line fittings.

NOTE: Do not connect drain lines from other devices to the dishwasher drain hose.
