Te mplate Instructions for

Monogram Dishwasher Models

The custom panel should be sized to your installation situation. See Step 1. For easier

installation the custom panel and custom handle should be attached before installing the

dishwasher . Use this template to locate mounting screws and spacers on the custom panel.

IMPORT ANT

• A custom handle must be installed onto the custom panel. Install the custom handle 4-1/2" max. from the top of the panel.

STEP 2 DRA W CENTERLINE

• Place the custom panel on a at surface with appearance side down.

• Locate the vertical center of the panel at the top.

• Use a carpenters square to draw a centerline from top to bottom.

STEP 4 INST ALL MOUNTING SCREWS AND SP ACERS

Mark Center Screw Holes

STEP 5 INST ALL CUSTOM HANDLE

A custom handle must be installed onto the panel before the panel is secured to the dishwasher door.

• The handle should be installed so that it aligns with adjacent drawer handles, or 4-1/2" max. from the top of the panel. Secure the handle in the same manner as cabinet handles. Screws must be countersunk into the panel.

STEP 6 INST ALL ASSEMBLED P ANEL

• Secure the panel to the door by inserting the top and bottom mounting screws with spacers into the matching keyhole slots.

• Make sure all 4 spacers engage the keyhole slots.

• Press the panel against the door and push downward until the spacers are fully engaged into the key hole slots. The panel should align evenly with the top and sides.

• Stand the dishwasher upright.

• Open dishwasher door and drive the supplied #8 x 1-3/4" truss head screws. Drive one screw at the top and one on each side as shown, through the inner door and into the custom panel.

WARNING:Do not overtighten screws. Excessive tightening of the screws could damage door edges.

STEP 3 ALIGN TEMPLA TE TO P ANEL

• Trim template on the dotted line along all sides.

• Place the template on the panel aligned with the top edge and the centerline. Use tape to hold in place.

IMPORTANT: If the template is not aligned with the top edge of the panel, the 1/2" minimum gap will not be maintained. This 1/2" minimum gap must be maintained to prevent condensation and damage to the control panel from screw heads.

• Use an awl to mark the screw hole locations indicated on the template. Remove the template.

HEIGHT

Panel height must be between 30-1/16" and 30-1/4".

• If the panel height is more than 30-1/4" it will prevent the door from swinging open.

• If the panel height is less than 30-1/16" it will not cover the dishwasher door frame.

STEP 1 CUSTOM P ANEL SIZE REQUIREMENTS

If the panel is less than 3/4" thick, shorter screws must be used. Use #8 x 1/2" screws for 1/2" thick panels (not supplied).

• Use a 3/32" drill bit to drill pilot holes 3/32" deep in the marked locations.

Note: The custom panel is secured to the dishwasher door with the spacers and screws provided. The spacer will slip into the keyhole slots on the dishwasher door.

• Drive the supplied #8 x 5/8" Phillips truss head steel screws through the spacer and into the panel.

• Install remaining spacers and screws as indicated in the marked locations.

IMPORTANT:To ensure optimum door balance performance, the custom panel must not weigh more than 14 lbs.

STEP 7 INST ALL DOOR SPRINGS

The dishwasher is shipped from the factory with a temporary set of balance springs. Use the heavy duty springs provided and the adjustment holes in the cable to balance the door after the custom panel is installed onto the dishwasher.

• With the dishwasher on the wood skid, close and latch the door.

• Remove and discard both door springs.

• Attach the new heavy duty door springs. Engage the end with the short hook into the support leg and the long hook into the cable.

• Open and close the door.

• If the door drops open when released, increase spring tension. If the door closes when released, decrease tension.

TIP: If the door does not open easily or f alls too quickly, check spring cable routing. The cable is held in place by “shoulders” on the pulley. Check to be sure the cable has not slipped over the pulley shoulders.

IMPOR TA NT: Adjust both balan ce springs to the same amount of tension to prevent excessive door twisting during use.
