To avoid possible injury or property damage, OBSERVE ALL
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS. These instructions are intend-
ed for use by qualified installers only. In addition to these
instructions, the dishwasher shall be installed to meet all
electrical and plumbing codes and ordinances (both national
and local).
Avoiding General Hazards
Do not use the dishwasher until it is completely installed. When
opening the door on an uninstalled dishwasher, carefully open
the door while supporting the rear of the unit. Failure to follow
this warning can cause the dishwasher to tip over and result
in serious iniury.
In some conditions, hydrogen gas can form in a hot water system
that has not been used for weeks. Hydrogen gas is explosive.
Before filling a dishwasher from a system that has been off for
weeks, run the water from a nearby faucet in a well ventilated
area until there is no sound or evidence of gas.
Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will damage
the dishwasher's base and water inlet valve. If plumbing lines
are to be soldered or sweated, keep the heat source at least
6 inches (152.4 mm) away from the dishwasher's base and
water inlet valve.
Removing any cover or pulling the dishwasher from the cabinet
can expose hot water connections, electrical power and sharp
edges or points. Handle with care. Always wear gloves and
safety glasses.
_Avoiding Flectrical Shock/Fire Hazards
Do not allow the electrical and water supply lines to touch.
Separate channels are provided under the dishwasher.
Do not work on an energized circuit. Doing so could result
in serious injury or death. Only qualified electricians should
perform electrical work. Do not attempt any work on the
dishwasher electric supply circuit until you are certain the circuit
is de-energized.
Make sure electrical work is properly installed. There
should be no loose electrical connections. Ensure all
electrical connections are properly made.
The customer has the responsibility of ensuring that the
dishwasher electrical installation is in compliance with all
national and local electrical codes and ordinances. The
dishwasher is designed for an electrical supply of 120V,
60 Hz, AC, connected to a dishwasher-dedicated, properly
grounded electrical circuit with a fuse or breaker rated for
15 amps. Electrical supply conductors shall be a minimum
#14 AWG copper only wire rated at 75°C (167°F) or
higher.
This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and
connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on
the appliance. Do not use extension cords.
_ Avoiding Plumbing/Scalding Hazards
Do not perform any work on a charged hot water line.
Serious iniury could result. Only qualified plumbers should
perform plumbing work. Do not attempt any work on the
dishwasher hot water supply plumbing until you are certain
the hot water supply isshut off.
Do not overtighten the 90 ° elbow. Doing so may damage
the water inlet valve and cause a water leak.
Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will
damage the dishwasher's water inlet valve. If plumbing
lines are to be soldered or sweated, keep the heat source
at least 6 inches (152.4 mm) away from the dishwasher's
water inlet valve.
Check local plumbing codes for approved plumbing
procedures and accessories. All plumbing should be done in
accordance with national and local codes.
These instructions depict an installation method for stainless
steel braided hose or PEX hot water supply lines. If using
copper tubing or other material for water supply, defer to
a licensed plumber for proper installation.

Hot Water Supply
The hot water heater should be set to deliver
approximately 120 ° F (49 ° C) water to the dishwasher.
Water that is too hot can cause some detergents to lose
effectiveness. Lower water temperatures wJJl increase run
times. The hot water supply pressure must be between
15 - 145 psi (1 - 10 bar).
IMPORTANT NOTES:
• if using a solder joint instead of a compression
fitting, be sure to make a!l solder connections before
connecting the water supply line to the dishwasher.
• Make sure there are no sharp bends or kinks in the
water line that might restrict water flow.
• Always use the appropriate seal when making
plumbing connections.
• Before connecting the water supply line to the
dishwasher, flush the incoming water line for
approximately 5 minutes to clear any foreign material.
• Turn on the water supply and check for leaks after
connections are made.
METHOD A & B
As a final step, connect the dishwasher power supply plug
(connected to the junction box at the other end) in the slot
at the bottom of the dishwasher as shown below.
Dishwasher power supply plug
Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will
damage the dishwasher. Jf plumbing lines are to be
soldered or sweated, keep the heat
source at least 6 inches (152.4 ram) away from
the dishwasher.
Connecting the Hot Water SuppJy
There are two plastic corrugated hoses that exit the back
of the dishwasher. The larger hose, with the brass fitting
on the end, is the water supply hose to the dishwasher (the
other hose is the dishwasher drain hose). You will need a
3" x 13/4" (7.6 x 4.5cm) opening through the cabinet to
pass the dishwasher water supply line through toward the
shut off valve.
Toconnect the hot water supply:
1. Assemble the water supply adaptor fitting from the
parts bag onto the dishwasher water supply hose. This
connection does nat require Teflon brand tape.
2. Pass the dishwasher water supply line with attached
adaptor through the opening toward the water shut off
valve. Take care not to allow the hose to kink or twist
behind the dishwasher.
3. Connect the dishwasher water supply line with adaptor
to the water shut off valve. You will need to use an
approved dishwasher water supply line with the correct
fittings for this connection. Always use the appropriate
seal when making plumbing connections.
NOTE: The end of the dishwasher water inlet hose is
heavy and will need to be supported. It is best to lay
the end an the cabinet floor.
4. After all connections are made, turn on the hot water
and check far leaks.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
If local ordinance require an air gap, install it according
to the manufacturer's instructions.
If the dishwasher drain hose is to be connected to a
disposer dishwasher drain connection, remove the plug
from the disposer's dishwasher drain connection.
The dishwasher drain hose must have one place along its
length that is securely attached 20 inches (50.8cm) above
the cabinet floor.
The drain hose length can be extended if necessary. The
maximum length of the drain hose, including the hose
leading to the air gap, is 150 inches (381 cm).
The dishwasher drain hose may be connected to the
household or field drain plumbing in one of four ways. You
will need a 11/,, (3.2 cm) diameter hole in order to pass
the drain hose through the cabinet.

Before installing the supplied countertap mounting brackets,
decide which method of securing the dishwasher into its
enclosure will be used. Once the mounting brackets are
installed an the dishwasher, removing them is difficult and
will damage the mounting brackets and the dishwasher.
The dishwasher can be secured into its enclosure in two ways:
1. Top Mount is used for countertops made of wood
or other materials that can easily drilled. Orient the
mounting brackets as shown below and position the
the mounting brackets over the slots on the dishwasher's
front corners. Push the mounting brackets down firmly to
insert the tabs into the slots.

position the two small tabs on the mounting brackets
over the two slats on the dishwasher's front corners.
Push the mounting brackets down firmly to insert the
tabs into the slots.
Do not use the dishwasher until it is completely installed.
When opening the door an an uninstalled dishwasher,
carefully open the door while supporting the rear of the
unit. Failure to fallow this warning can result in serious
iniury.

Theunitshould now be ready to slide into the cabinet
opening. To avoid scratching the floor, use floor protection
and caution when sliding the dishwasher into the cabinet.
Make sure that the hoses and cords do nat bunch up behind
the unit or kink as you slide the unit back. Make certain to
slide the unit into place before raising the leg levelers.
1. Drive the mounting screws through the holes in the
mounting brackets as shown for Top or Side Mount.
2. After the unit is installed in the enclosure, leveled and
secured, lock the two front leg levelers in place by
driving the enclosed leg leveler locking screws into each
screw slat located in front of the levelers.
3. Tighten screws until they are flush with the surface of the
slots.
