**Minimum, measured from narrowest point of opening,
Check that all surfaces have no protrusions
that would prohibit dishwasher installation.
A new drain hose is supplied with your dishwasher. If drain
hose is not long enough, use a new drain hose with a
maximum length of 12' (3.7 m) (Part Number 3385556) that
meets all current AHAM/IAPMO test standards, is resistant to
heat and detergent, and fits the 1" (2.5 cm) drain connector of
the dishwasher.
Make sure to connect drain hose to waste tee or disposer inlet
above drain trap in house plumbing and 20" (50.8 cm)
minimum above the floor. It is recommended that the drain
hose either be looped up and securely fastened to the
underside of the counter, or be connected to an air gap.
Make sure to use an air gap if the drain hose is connected to
house plumbing lower than 20" (50.8 cm) above subfloor or
floor.
Use 1/2"minimum I.D. drain line fittings.
If required, the air gap should be installed in accordance with
the air gap installation instructions. When you are connecting
the air gap, a rubber hose (not provided) will be needed to
connect to the waste tee or disposer inlet.
Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate
and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70 - latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

You must have:
• 120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, 15- or 20-amp, fused electrical
supply.
• Copper wire only.
We recommend:
• A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.
• Aseparate circuit.
If connecting dishwasher with a
power supply cord:
Use UL Listed power supply cord kit
(Part Number 4317824) marked for
use with dishwasher.
Power supply cord must plug into a grounded
3 prong outlet, located in the cabinet next to
the dishwasher opening. Outlet must meet all
local codes and ordinances.
If connecting dishwasher with direct wiring:
• Use flexible, armored or nonmetallic
sheathed, copper wire with
grounding wire that meets the
wiring requirements for your home
and local codes and ordinances.
• Use a UL Listed/CSA Approved strain relief.

Option B, Direct Wire:
Helpful Tip: Wiring the dishwasher will be easier if you route the
cable into the cabinet opening from the right-hand side.
Drill a 3/4"(1.9 cm) hole in right-hand cabinet side or rear.
See product and cabinet opening dimensions.
Route cable from power supply through cabinet hole (cable must
extend to the right front side of cabinet opening). Tape cable to
the floor in area shown. This will prohibit cable from moving when
dishwasher is moved into cabinet opening.
Helpful Tip: Routing the water line through the left side of cabinet
opening will make water connection easier.
Wood cabinet: Sand the hole until smooth.
Metal cabinet: Cover hole with grommet (Part Number 302797 -
not provided).

Drill a Y2"(1.3 cm) hole in the cabinet side or rear.
Measure overall length of copper tubing or flexible braided water
supply line. Attach to the hot water line using a connection
configuration that is in compliance with local codes and
ordinances. The water line to the dishwasher should have a
manual shutoff valve.
Route water supply
JAdd 90 ° elbow fitting to the']
water supply line
Slowly route water supply line through hole in cabinet. (If you are
using copper tubing, it will bend and kink easily, so be gentle.) It
should be far enough into the cabinet opening to connect it to the
dishwasher inlet on the front left side of the dishwasher.
Slowly turn water shutoff valve to "ON" position. Flush water into
a shallow pan until clear to get rid of particles that could clog the
inlet valve. Turn shutoff valve to "OFF" position.
Connect the 3/8"compression fitting to the water supply line prior
to installing the unit into the cabinet opening. Attach such that the
3/4"connection is facing upward as shown above.
Copper tubing only: Put the tubing into the 90° elbow fitting as far
as it will go (the copper tubing bends and kinks easily). Slide the
nut and ferrule forward and start the nut onto the elbow threads.
Flexible braided connection: Secure nut to elbow using 5/8"open
ended wrench or adjustable wrench.
NOTE: Do not use Teflon ®ttape with compression fittings.
IMPORTANT: Always use a new drain hose. Check local codes to
determine whether an air gap is required.
Copper tubing only: Slide nut, then ferrule, about 1" (2.5 cm) onto
copper tubing.
NOTE: To avoid vibration during operation, route the water supply
line so that it does not touch the dishwasher base, frame or motor.
If needed, drill a 1V2"(3.8 cm) diameter hole in cabinet wall or side
of the opening closest to the sink.
Route drain hose as shown through hole in cabinet to the front
center of opening where drain connection will be made. Tape
drain hose to the floor in area shown. This will prohibit it from
moving when dishwasher is moved into cabinet opening.

Helpful Tip: Place cardboard under dishwasher until installed in
cabinet opening to avoid damaging floor covering. Do not use
door panel as a worktable without first covering with a towel to
avoid scratching the door panel.

Using a 1/4"hex head socket, nut driver or Phillips screwdriver,
remove terminal box cover. Retain for later use.
Install a UL Listed/CSA Approved strain relief. Make sure screw
heads are facing to the left when tightening conduit nut. Strain
relief isprovided with the power supply cord kit.
Route cord so that it does not touch dishwasher motor to lower
part of dishwasher tub. Pull cord through strain relief interminal
box. Take notice when installing or removing the dishwasher in
order to reduce the chance of damaging the power supply cord.
Select UL Listed/CSA Approved twist-on wire connectors
(included with power supply cord kit) rated to connect your power
supply cord to 16-gauge dishwasher wiring.

Electrical Shock Hazard
ElectricMly ground dishwasher.
Connect ground wire to green ground connector in
terminal box.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Connect wires black to black and white to white, using UL

Measure height of cabinet opening from underside of countertop
to floor where dishwasher will be installed (you will need to
measure the lowest point on the underside of the countertop and
the highest point on the floor). Refer to "Dishwasher Height
Adjustment Chart" for wheel position and the number of turns
needed.

NOTE: If the minimum cabinet opening height is less than
34" (86.4 cm), the rear wheels can be removed for additional
clearance. This will allow the dishwasher to fit into a 337/8'' (86 cm)
high cabinet opening, but the dishwasher will be more difficult to
move. (Measurements are approximate. Wheels and legs are
preset at the factory for 341/2" [87.6 cm].)
Built-up floors: If the kitchen floor is higher than the cabinet
opening's floor - for example, the kitchen floor tile does not
extend into the cabinet opening - add shims as needed in the area
shown to bring the dishwasher up to 34" (86.4 cm) below the
countertop.
NOTE: Shims must be securely attached to floor to avoid
movement when the dishwasher is in use.
Turn both leveler legs to the same height. Put wheels in the
required position determined from "Dishwasher Height

NOTE: The handle for the custom panel is not included.
IMPORTANT: If the handle is attached from the back of the
custom panel, the screw holes should be countersunk for the
screws heads to be flush with the panel. If the handle is attached
to the front of the custom panel, the screw lengths cannot exceed
the panel thickness. For more information on Jenn-Air ®custom
handle selection, refer to the Jenn-Air _ Catalog, visit
www.jenn-air.com, or call 1-800-688-1100.
NOTES:
A customer-supplied full front panel must weigh no more than
16 Ibs (7.3 kg) and must be made to specific dimensions. It is
recommended that a cabinetmaker cut the custom panel
because of the precise dimensions needed.
All mounting hardware supplied is for a 3/4"(19.1 mm) thick
wood panel. If a thinner wood panel, or materials other than
wood are used, it is the customer's responsibility to obtain the
proper length screws and adjust the pilot holes accordingly.
IMPORTANT: Use a moisture-resistant sealer on both sides and
all edges of the panel to avoid damage from humidity.
