above the floor?  Will installation have a drain loop less than 32" above floor? 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.

• The dishwasher must be installed so that drain hose is no more than 10 feet in length for proper drainage.

• The dishwasher must be fully enclosed on the top, sides and back, and must not support any part of the enclosure.
