Small level

Grounded electrical supply required.

Do not run drain lines, water lines or electrical wiring where

they can interfere with or contact 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.

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

A side panel kit is available from your dealer for installing your dishwasher at the end of your cabinetry.

A moisture barrier accessory (Part Number 4396277)is available from your dealer for installing underneath the countertop.

Check location where 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 a 2" (5.1 cm) minimum

clearance between the side of the dishwasher door and the wall or cabinet.

• square opening for proper operation and appearance.

• cabinet front perpendicular to floor.

• level floor. (if floor at front of opening is not level with

floor at rear of opening, shims may be needed to level dishwasher.)

Helpful Tip: Be sure to accurately measure dimensions and ensure dishwasher is level if the floor in the dishwasher

opening is uneven (example: flooring extends only partway into opening).

NOTE: To avoid shifting during dishwasher operation, shims must be securely attached to the floor.

if dishwasher will be left unused for a period of time or in a location where it may be subject to freezing, have it winterized by

authorized service personnel.

Make sure pipes, wires and drain hose are within the shaded area

shown in the "Product and Cabinet Opening Dimensions" section.

*Insulation may

be compressed. (not used on all models)

Check that all surfaces

have no protrusions that would

prohibit dishwasher installation.

NOTE: Shaded area of cabinet walls show where utility connections may be installed.

*Measured from the lowest point on the underside Of

countertop. May be reduced to 33 %" (86 cm) by

removing wheels from dishwasher.

_*Minimum, measured from narrowest point of

opemng.

• A new drain hose is supplied with your dishwasher. If this is not long enough, use a new drain hose with a maximum length of 12' (3.7 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.

• 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.

• 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.

Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate

and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA

70 - latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association

1 Batterymarch Park

Quincy, MA02169 You must have:

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

• copper wire only.

We recommend:

• a time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.

• a separate circuit.

if connecting dishwasher with a power supply cord:

• Use UL Listed power

supply cord kit (Part Number 4317824)

marked for use with dishwasher.

• Power supply cord must plug into

a grounded 3 prong outlet, located in the cabinet next to the dishwasher opening.

Outlet must meet all local codes and ordinances.

• Use 1/2"minimum I.D. drain line fittings.

• If required the air gap should be installed in accordance with the air gap installation instructions, when connecting the air gap a

rubber hose (not provided) will be needed to connect to the waste

tee or disposer inlet.

• A hot water line with 20 to 120 psi (138 to 862 kPa) water

pressure can be verified by a licensed plumber. 120°F (49°C) water at dishwasher.

3/8"O.D. copper tubing with compression fitting or flexible braided water supply line (Part Number 4396897RP) NOTE: 1/2"minimum plastic tubing is not recommended.

A 90 ° elbow with 3/8"N.P.T. external pipe threads on one end.

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

if connecting dishwasher with direct wiring:

• Use flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed, copper wire with grounding wire that meets

the wiring requirements for your home and local codes and

ordinances.

• Use a UL Listed/CSA Approved strain relief.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect electrical power at the fuse box or circuit breaker box before installing dishwasher.

Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.

Option B, Direct Wire:

Helpful Tip: Wiring the dishwasher will be easier if you route the cable into the cabinet opening from the right side.

Direct Wire - Drill

Drill a 3/4"(1.9 cm) hole in right-hand cabinet side or rear. See product and cabinet opening dimensions.

Route cable from power supply through cabinet hole (cable must

extend to the right front side of cabinet opening). Tape cable to the floor in area shown. This will avoid cable from

moving when dishwasher is moved into cabinet opening.

Helpful Tip: Routing the water line through the left side of

cabinet opening will make water connection easier.

Wood cabinet: Sand hole until smooth.

Metal cabinet: Cover hole with grommet (not provided - Part Number 302797).

Drill a V2"(1.3 cm) hole in the cabinet side or rear.

Measure overall length of copper tubing or flexible braided

water supply line. Attach to the hot water line using a

connection configuration that is in compliance with local codes and ordinances. The water line to the dishwasher should have a

manual shutoff valve.

Tip Over Hazard

Do not use dishwasher untiJ completely installed. Do not push down on open door.

Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.

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 a 1/4"hex head socket, nut driver or Phillips screwdriver, remove 2 screws attaching access panel and lower panel to

dishwasher. NOTE: Do not remove tech sheet from access panel.

Attach insulation

Tabs

Install

Using the precut slots in the insulation, fasten the insulation over the molded hooks on the tub. Be sure to fasten the insulation down on

both sides of the tub.

Apply Teflon _:tape or pipe joint compound to 90 ° elbow fitting (not provided). Wrap tape around coarse threads 2 to 4 times to

avoid leaks.

Helpful Tip: Place cardboard under dishwasher until installed in cabinet opening to avoid damaging floor covering. Do not use door panel as a work table without first covering with a towel to avoid scratching the door panel.

Using 2 or more people, grasp sides of dishwasher door frame and place dishwasher on its back.

Connect 90 ° elbow fitting to water inlet valve. Using a wrench,

tighten elbow until snug, and be sure that it faces to the rear.

NOTE: Do not pre-twist stranded wire. Twist on wire connector. Gently tug on wires to be sure both are secured.

Connect wires black to black and white to white, using UL Listed/CSA Approved twist-on wire connectors (not included).

Place wires inside terminal box. Insert tabs on left side of cover. Make sure wires are tucked inside box. Close

cover ensuring wires are not pinched. Use 1/4"nut driver and

previously removed screw to secure cover. NOTE: Do not plug into outlet until instructed.

Power Cord--Secure cord

Tighten strain relief screws to secure cord.

Measure height of cabinet opening from underside of

countertop to floor where dishwasher will be installed (you will

need to measure the lowest point on the underside of the

countertop and the highest point on the floor). Refer to "Dishwasher Height Adjustment Chart" for wheel position and

the number of turns needed.

NOTE: If the minimum cabinet opening height is less than 34"(86.4 cm), the rear wheels can be removed for additional

clearance. This will allow the dishwasher to fit into a 337/8" (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 341/2" [87.6" cm].)
