DRAIN REQUIREMENTS
• Follow local codes and ordinances.
• Do not exceed 10 feet distance to drain.
• Do not connect drain lines from other devices
to the dishwasher drain hose.
• Dishwasher must be connected to waste line with an
air gap (not supplied) or 32" minimum high drain loop,
depending on local codes and ordinances to prevent
back fl ow into the dishwasher.
• Air gap must be used if waste tee or disposer connection
is less than 18" above the fl oor to prevent siphoning.
DRAIN PREPARATION
The type of drain installation depends on answers to
the following questions:
Do local codes or ordinances require an air gap?
Will waste tee or disposer connection be less than
18" above the fl oor?
Will installation have a drain loop less than 32"
above fl oor?
If the answer to ANY of the 3 questions above is YES,
Method 1 MUST be used. Otherwise either Method 1
or Method 2 may be used. Figure C or Figure D.
CAUTION:
An air gap MUST BE USED if the drain hose is connected
to waste tee or disposer lower than 18" above the fl oor.
Failure to provide the proper drain connection height
with air gap or 32" minimum, high drain loop will result in
improper draining of the dishwasher.
Install waste tee or disposer and air gap according to
manufacturer’s instructions.
CABINET PREPARATION
• Drill a 1-1/2" dia. hole in the cabinet wall within the
shaded areas shown in Figure A for the drain hose
connection. The hole should be smooth with no sharp
edges.
Method 1 – Air Gap with Waste Tee or Disposer
Method 2 – High Drain with Waste Tee or Disposer

Installation Preparation
Cabinet Preparation & Wire Routing
• The wiring may enter the opening from either side,
rear or the fl oor within the shaded area.
• Cut a 1-1/2" max. dia. hole to admit the electrical cable.
The hole must be free of sharp edges. If the cabinet
wall is metal, the hole edge must be covered with a
bushing.
• Cable direct connections may pass through the same
hole as the drain hose and hot water line, if convenient.
If cabinet wall is metal, the hole edge must be covered
with a bushing. NOTE: Power cords with plug must
pass through a separate hole.
Electrical Connection to Dishwasher
Electrical connection is on the right front of dishwasher.
• For cable direct connections the cable must be routed
as shown in Figure E. Cable must extend a minimum of
24" from the rear wall.
• For power cord connections, install a 3-prong grounding
type receptacle. The power-supply receptacle for the
appliance shall be installed in a cabinet or on a wall
adjacent to the undercounter space in which the
appliance is to be installed.
WARNING
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY: Remove house
fuse or open circuit breaker before
beginning installation. Do not use an
extension cord or adapter plug with this
appliance.
PREPARE ELECTRICAL WIRING
Electrical Requirements
• This appliance must be supplied with 120V, 60 Hz., and
connected to an individual properly grounded branch
circuit, protected by a 15 or 20 ampere circuit breaker
or time delay fuse.
• Wiring must be 2 wire with ground.
• If the electrical supply does not meet the above
requirements, call a licensed electrician before
proceeding.
Grounding Instructions – Cable Direct
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
be connected to the equipment grounding terminal or
lead on the appliance.
Grounding Instructions – Power Cord Models
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of
electrical shock by providing a path of least resistance
for electric current. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is installed
and grounded in accordance with local codes and
ordinances.
WARNING
The improper connection of the
equipment grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualifi ed electrician or service
representative if you are in doubt that
the appliance is properly grounded.

Installation Instructions
PREPARE HOT WATER LINE
• The line may enter from either side, rear or fl oor
within the shaded area shown in Figure F.
• The line may pass through the same hole as the
electrical cable and drain hose. Or, cut an additional
1-1/2" dia. hole to accommodate the water line.
If power cord with plug is used, water line must not
pass through power cord hole.
Water Line Connection
• Turn off the water supply.
• Install a hand shut-off valve in an accessible location,
such as under the sink. (Optional, but strongly
recommended and may be required by local codes.)
• Water connection is on the left side of the dishwasher.
Install the hot water inlet line, using no less than 3/8"
O.D. copper tubing. Route the line as shown in Figure F
and extend forward at least 18" from rear wall.
• Adjust water heater for 120°F to 150°F temperature.
• Flush water line to clean out debris.
• The hot water supply line pressure must be 20-120 PSI.
CAUTION:
Opening the door will cause the dishwasher
to tip forward. Do not open the door until you are ready
to install the dishwasher. If it is
necessary to open the door, hold
the top of the dishwasher securely
with one hand and hold the door
with the other hand.
• Open the door slowly, if the door drops when
released, increase spring tension. If the door closes
when released, decrease tension.
• Adjust both door springs to the same tension.
• Continue moving the spring pin until door is balanced.
STEP 1 CHECK DOOR BALANCE
