Figure AH Screws

Align the toekick with the bottom edge and make sure it is against the floor. Insert and tighten the 2toekick attachment screws. The toekick should stay in contact with the floor. When reinstalling the toe kick on models with a sound barrier, ensure that the bottom edge of the rubberized flap isflush with the floor. Any excess material should be tucked up behind the outer door. Donot allow excess rubberized flap to lay on the floor. Ifany excess is not tucked completely behind the outer door, it will bunch up between the door and toe kick and impede proper opening and closing of the door. Thiswill be noticeable because the door will not stay fully open and will spring up.

Tip: Reduce sound from under the dishwasher. Make sure

toekick is against floor.
