BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
WARNING
• Remove all power leading to the appliance from the
circuit breaker or fuse box before beginning installation.
Failure to do so can result in a risk of electrical shock.
•
To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or injury to persons,
the installer must ensure that the dishwasher is completely
enclosed at the time of installation.
• The improper connection of the equipment grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or service representative
if you are in doubt that the appliance is properly
grounded. If house wiring is not 2-wire with ground, a
ground must be by the installer. When house wiring
is aluminum, be sure to use UL-Listed anti-oxidant
compound and aluminum-to-copper connectors.
•
To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or injury to persons,
the installer should check to ensure that wires are not pinched
or damaged, the house wiring is attached to the junction box
bracket through a strain relief, and all electrical connections
made at the time of install (wire nuts) are contained inside of
the junction box cover.
ADVERTENCIA

cabinets and the dishwasher is centered in the
cabinet opening. Check that the dishwasher is
squarely positioned in the cabinet opening at both
the top and the bottom of the appliance prior to
mounting to the cabinet.
IMPORTANT – Before opening the dishwasher door,
be certain the edges of the dishwasher door panel are
behind the face of the adjacent cabinet and not up
against the cabinet face. Refer to figure below. If the
dishwasher door is opened when the edge of the door
is against the face of the cabinet, dishwasher door
damage and cabinet damage will occur.

STEP 15
CONNECT POWER SUPPLY
If a power cord with plug is already installed
proceed to Step 18.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or injury to
persons, the installer should check to ensure that wires
are not pinched or damaged, the house wiring is attached
to the junction box bracket through a strain relief, and
all electrical connections made at the time of install (wire
nuts) are contained inside of the junction box cover.
ADVERTENCIA
Para reducir el riesgo de descarga eléctrica, incendio
o lesiones a personas, el instalador deberá realizar un
control para asegurar que los cables no estén pellizcados
ni dañados, que el cableado del hogar esté conectado a la
ficha de la caja de empalmes a través de un amortiguador
de refuerzo, y que todas las conexiones eléctricas realizadas
en el momento de la instalación (tuercas para cables) estén
dentro de la tapa de la caja de empalmes.
In this step you will need the junction box cover and the
#10 Hex head screw from the screws set aside in Step 1.
• Secure house wiring to the back of the junction box
with a strain relief as shown in the MATERIALS YOU
WILL NEED section.
• Locate the 3 dishwasher wires, (white, black and green)
with the stripped ends coming out of the AC jumper. Use
UL-listed wire nuts of appropriate size to connect incoming
ground to green, white to white and black to black.
• Install the junction box cover using #10 hex head screw.
Check to be sure that wires are not pinched under the
cover and that all wire nuts are inside the cover.
• Make sure that the junction box cover is resting on
the mounting bracket.

STEP 16
Review this list after installing your dishwasher to
avoid charges for a service call that is not covered
by your Warranty.
• Check to be sure power is OFF.
• Open door and remove all foam and paper
packaging.
• Locate the Owner’s Manual set aside in Step 1.
• Read the Owner’s Manual for operating instructions.
• Check door opening and closing. If door does not
open and close freely, check for proper routing of
spring cable over pulley. If door drops or closes
when released, adjust spring tension. See Step 2.
• Check to be sure that wiring is secure under the
dishwasher, not pinched or in contact with door
springs or other components. See Step 17.
• Check door alignment with tub. If door hits tub, level
dishwasher. See Step 13.
• Check door alignment with cabinet. If door hits
cabinet, reposition dishwasher. See Step 12.
• Pull lower rack out, about halfway. Check to be sure
it does not roll back or forward on the door. If the
rack moves, adjust leveling legs. See Step 13.
• Check that door spring does not contact water line,
fill hose, wiring or other components. See Step 12.
• Verify water supply and drain lines are not kinked
or in contact with other components. Contact with
motor or dishwasher frame could cause noise.
• Turn on the sink hot water faucet and verify water
temperature. Incoming water temperature must be
between 120°F and 140°F. A minimum of 120°F
temperature is required for best wash performance.
See PREPARE HOT WATER LINE section.
• Add 2 quarts of water to the bottom of the
dishwasher to lubricate the pump seal.
• Turn on water supply. Check for leaks. Tighten
connections if needed.

• Turn on power supply or plug power cord into outlet,
if equipped.
• Select a cycle to run and push the Start/Reset pad.
• Ensure the door is latched. Dishwasher should start.
• Check to be sure that water enters the dishwasher.
If water does not enter the dishwasher, check to be
sure that water and power are turned on.
• Check for leaks under the dishwasher. If a leak
is found, turn off power at the breaker, and then
tighten water connections. Restore power after leak
is corrected.
NOTE: A small amount of water may splash out of
the fill funnel, on the right side of the tub, during the
first use after installation. Splash-out is most likely to
occur if there is air in the water supply line from new
construction or if the valve has been closed for an
extended time.
• Check for leaks around the door. A leak around
the door could be caused by door rubbing or
hitting against adjacent cabinets. Reposition the
dishwasher if necessary. See Step 12.
• Press and hold the Start/Reset pad for 3 seconds to
cancel the cycle. The unit will begin to drain. Check
drain lines. If leaks are found, turn off power at the
breaker and correct plumbing as necessary. Restore
power after corrections are made. See Steps 6, 7, 8,
9 and 16.
• Open dishwasher door and make sure all of the
water has drained. If not, check that disposer plug
has been removed and/or air gap is not plugged.
Also check drain hose to be sure it is not kinked
underneath or behind dishwasher. See Step 16.
• Press Start/Reset pad once again and run
dishwasher through another cycle. Check for leaks and
correct if required.
• Repeat these steps as necessary.
DISHWASHER WET TEST
