WARNING
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 injury.
Before installing the “L”-shaped supplied countertop mounting brackets (select models), decide which method will be used to secure the dishwasher into its opening. Once these mounting brackets are installed on the dishwasher, removing them is difficult and will damage the mounting brackets and the dishwasher.
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″ (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.
Avoiding Electrical 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 dishwasherdedicated, properly grounded electrical circuit with a fuse or breaker rated for 15 amps.

Inlet Water Connections
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 will 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 all 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.
WARNING
Avoid Scald Hazard!
Do not perform any work on a charged hot water line. Serious injury 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 is shut off.
Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will damage the dishwasher. If plumbing lines are to be soldered or sweated, keep the heat source at least 6 inches (152.4 mm) away from the dishwasher.
Water Supply Shut Off Valve
Install an easily accessible shut-off valve (not supplied) in the hot water supply line, as shown in Figure 9. All solder connections must be made before the water line is connected to the dishwasher.
Connecting the Hot Water Supply
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″
(76 x 45 mm) opening through the cabinet to pass the dishwasher water supply line through toward the shut off valve.
Figure 7
To connect the hot water supply:
1.Assemble the water supply adaptor fitting (H) from the parts bag onto the dishwasher water supply hose. This connection does not 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 thewatershutoffvalve.Youwillneedtouseanapproved 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 on the cabinet floor as shown in Figure 7.
4.After all connections are made, turn on the hot water and
check for leaks.
