ENCLOSURE PREPARATmON
NOTE: This dishwasher is designed to be enclosed on the
top and both sides by standard residentiaU kitchen
cabinetry.
Select a location as close to the sink as possible for
easy access to water supply and drain lines.
For proper dishwasher operation and appearance, ensure
that the enclosure is square and has the dimensions
shown in Figure !.
if the dishwasher is to be installed in a corner, make sure
that there is adequate clearance to open the door. See
Figure 2,
ElectricaJ Shock/Fire Hazard
To avoid eJectric shock or fire, do not allow the
eJectricaJ and water supply Jines to touch.
Separate channeJs are provided under the
dishwasher (see page 10).
If the enclosure requires openings for the electrical supply
cable, hot water supply line, and dishwasher drain hose,
place them within the dimensions shown by the shaded
area of Figure 3 to avoid interference with the dishwasher
frame or other components. Make the openings for the
electrical supply cable and hot water supply line 1"
(25.4mm) diameter. Make the opening for the dishwasher
drain hose 1-1/4" (32mm) diameter. If the openings are
made through wood, sand them smooth. If the openings
are made through metal, make them large enough to
accommodate grommets or other protective sheaths with
inside diameters of 1" (25.4mm) for the electrical supply
cable and the hot water supply line, and 1-1/4" (32mm) for
the dishwasher drain hose.
