■ A 3 prong grounded outlet must be installed within 6" (15.2 cm)
to 18" (45.7 cm) to either side of the utility hole in the cabinet
side wall. The power outlet must be accessible after
installation.

■ It is recommended that wood cabinetry surrounding the
dishwasher be sealed with an oil-based paint or moisture­proof polyurethane to prevent possible damage from humidity.

■ A utility hole that will be used to route the power supply cord
and hoses must be located as shown. If the hole is not located
as shown, the hoses will prevent the dishwasher from being
pushed back all the way into the cavity. Make sure the edges
of the utility hole are smooth or covered. If the utility hole is
through a metal cabinet, the hole must be protected with the
edge protector provided.

IMPORTANT: Custom wood door panel, if used, may be wider
than the dishwasher to match surrounding cabinets. The 23⁵⁄₈"
(60.0 cm) must be increased so that there is a ³⁄₃₂" (2.5 mm)
clearance between the cabinet side and panel edge.

Water Supply Requirements

For dishwasher:

■ Hot water line with 4.3-145 psi (30-1000 kPa) water pressure.

■ 120°F (48.8°C) water at dishwasher.

■ An easily accessible valve with 3/8" compression fitting must

be installed in the hot water supply line.

Electrical Requirements

A 120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, 15 amp fused electrical supply is
required. (Circuit breaker is recommended.) It is recommended
that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.

Garbage Disposer:
If you plan to install a garbage disposer, an additional separate

120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, 15 or 20 amp fused electrical supply is
required.

Minimum thickness of cabinet/cavity sides

and bottom is

⁵⁄₈" (1.6 cm)

■ Build the custom cabinet to the size and specifications
shown. The supporting base of the cabinet must be solid,
level and able to sustain weight up to 104 lbs. (47 Kg), with a
minimum thickness of cabinet/cavity sides and bottom of

⁵⁄₈” (1.6 cm).

■ For corner installation, there must be a ¹⁄₂" (12.7 mm) space
between the adjacent cabinet doors (i.e. door knobs) and open
dishwasher drawer.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

■

The dishwasher must be grounded. In the event of a

malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for
electric current. The dishwasher is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet
that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative
or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the
dishwasher is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the dishwasher: if it will not fit the outlet, have
a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

moisture protection tape to the dry dust-free underside of the
countertop.

2. Turn off water supply.

support in front of cabinet opening. Place the dishwasher on
covering. Depending on the height of the cavity, the
dishwasher will need to be supported.

2. Begin to route the power supply cord and hoses through the

utility hole in the cabinet.

3. Place dishwasher part way into the opening.
IMPORTANT: Push against the outside edges of drawer as

shown. Do not push against the center of the drawer.

pull the power supply cord, drain hose and inlet hose through
the utility hole.

5. Open the drawer.

6. Press in the right-hand runner clip and push it back about 6”

(15.2 cm). Repeat with the left-hand runner clip.

back into the dishwasher.

8. Lift the drawer completely off the left-hand runner.

9. Set the drawer down flat on the protective covering. If the

drawer cannot be set down flat due to space constraints,
rotate it to the left onto its side, and place on the protective
covering. The drawer will need to be securely supported at a
height even with the cavity.

10. Slide the left-hand runner back into the dishwasher.

11. Make sure chassis position is still aligned and mark holes in

the bottom (if using bottom mount option).

Option 1: Attach dishwasher (side mount)

holes in the sound insulation.

IMPORTANT: For best installation, use all four attaching tabs.
Add spacers to side of cabinet if needed to attach screws.
Refer to “Cabinet dimensions/requirements” section.

2. Secure the attaching tabs to the cabinet using #8 Phillips
head screws.

NOTE: Before securing the dishwasher, confirm that the
chassis is still properly aligned.
