ADVANCE PLANNING

Installation Preparation

• These dishwashers are designed for versatility, adaptable to virtually any installation.

• All models have a full-length door without the traditional access panel.

and

• These dishwashers may be installed beneath countertops of stone or other materials that will

not accept screws. No trim kit required.

kWARNING

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.

Special consideration for a dishwasher installed on a elevated platform

The elevated platform must be flat and level.

• The dishwasher must be installed no

s4" more than 10 feet from a sink for proper

Adjustable drainage.

toss" The dishwasher must be fully enclosed on

the top, sides and back.

• The dishwasher must not support any part of the enclosure.

*Dishwasher models ZBD6900PII and ZBD8900PII require a 3/4" thick

custom panel and will be 24-3/4" deep.

• The rough cabinet opening must be at least 24" deep, 24" wide and approximately 34-1/2" high from floor to underside of the countertop.

• The back wall should be free of pipes or wires.

• Adjacent cabinets should be square and plumb to ensure a good fit (Figure A).

• For a corner installation, allow 2" minimum clearance between the dishwasher and the

adjacent wall.

• Plumbing and electrical service must enter the shaded area.

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

drainage.

• Provide at least 28-3/8" in front of the dishwasher to allow the dishwasher door to open fully (Figure B).

• IVlake sure the floor is level inside the opening and even with the finished floor of the kitchen. This will

facilitate removal of the dishwasher at a later date for service, if needed.

Figure B

Countertop

CLEARANCES:In a corner

installation, provide atleast 2" clearance between the

dishwasher and the adjacent cabinet, wall or other

appliance.

Provide at least 28-3/8" of

clearance in front of the dishwasher (Figure B).

Installation Preparation

PREPARE DRAIN PLUMBING

Drain Requirements

• Drain hose must not exceed 10 feet in length.

• A high drain loop or air gap is required. See below.

Drain Method

The type of drain installation depends on the following:

• Do local codes or ordinances require an air gap2

• Is waste tee less than 18" above the floor2

If the answer to either question is yes, an air gap must be used. Refer to Method 1 (Figure C) in the

adjacent illustrations.

If both answers are no, either an air gap or high drain

loop may be used. Refer to Method 1 (Figure C)or

Method 2 (Figure D)in the adjacent illustrations. NOTE: Drain hose elevation must not exceed 48".

Special consideration for a dishwasher installed on a elevated platform

If the dishwasher is installed on an elevated platform, a high drain loop of at least 32" above the platform

must be provided in addition to the air gap or drain loop requirement determined above. This is necessary for proper drain performance.

A,,-^, ,-,-,,,_,,,

_ll, k,,/_U/IUl_l: An airgap MUST BE USED if

the drain hose is connected to waste tee or disposer lower than 18" above the floor level. Failure to

provide the proper drain connection height with an air gap or 32" minimum high drain loop will result in improper draining of the dishwasher, which may

cause damage.

Cabinet Preparation for drain line

Drill a 1-1/2" dia. hole in the cabinet wall within the shaded ureas shown in Figure A for the drain hose.

Make sure there are no sharp edges. The drain hose will be passed through this hole and connected to the drain in a later step.

Method 1--Air Gap with Waste Tee or Disposer

Figure C

Method 2--"High Drain Loop" with Waste Tee or

Disposer Use the drain hose hanger included inthe installation

kit to attach the drain hose to the underside of the countertop. Attachment will be made in a later step. Install waste tee or disposer and the air gap according

to the manufacturer's instructions.
